He can add this to his collection of forged backround documents, for the _residential motel room/book collection.

I work on corporate videos that use a lot of green screen and the wide shot does look a bit goofy, but the close up shot convinces me otherwise. Green screen around hair is always very tricky to key out and a slight green halo appears, or sometimes the editor will blur the edges to try to minimize the halo. None of these appear here. Obama’s presidency has been all smoke and mirrors, but this appears legit. I think he really pops off the background because they have him lit so well.

The Obummer Presidential Library will likely consist of books where he has scratched-out the names of the authors on the cover only to write his name in their place.

"The shot is obviously a composite and a 'weatherman quality' one," one professional in the field told BigGovernment website.

Weatherman...how appropriate.

Just like Uncle Bill Ayers.

The list goes on...

So....

What you are saying is Max Headroom has more substance than the big zero.

I would have to say so at this point.

I watched the video. It totally looks like a green screen job to me. I don’t know why they think they can’t admit it.

That’s what I say. Why not just admit it? We can understand that it may not be a good idea to stop production in the factory for a video take of a President. So just say so and move on. But they are so wrapped up in protecting his persona, they are beyond telling the truth.

‘Weatherman...how appropriate.’

An intentional symbolic message?

Can't he say anything positive? His petty, mocking tone is simply abominable. His words misstate the senate action.

I cannot abide such a committed liar. I have too much self-respect left to listen for long.

Well, one does have to observe that he has raised lying to an art form.

‘Weatherman...how appropriate.’<<<

An intentional symbolic message?

Kind of like this:

The first sentence of his video "I’m here in Detroit visiting workers at a GM plant in the heart of a resurgent American auto industry. " He wasn't.

What workers? The factory backdrop was a dead image... empty, desolate - without movement, without workers.
