Fascists and Photoshop... it's even a website. :)

In this famous photo, he is the smallest midget in the room. Directly to his right is Biden, who at 6'0"(183cm.) is smaller than Obama... yet, he makes Obama look like "mini-me" in this crappy photo-shop job.
He obviously, was not there, and his propaganda department photoshop experts, who messed up his BC - and got away with it, also did this crappy Photoshop job.
Not only that, but he has the biggest head of anyone known, but it looks quite small in this picture.
The WH already said this was not a real picture, there was nothing on the screen when it was shot. They said it was staged.
Note, too, the guy in the back with the light of heaven shining on his shoulders.
That’s true. Everyone’s head is bigger - even the gal at the very back of the room.
Weird!
What, another Dan Rather/Mary Mapes/SeeBS moment?
Just like his fake birth certificate.
The Kenyan lizard was playing golf while Osama was getting a hole in one.
ODrama is also leaning forward and is some 5 or 6 feet further back from Plugs (who may not have put on deodorant that day). That's why he looks smaller. There was a photoshop of this photo before... Hillary and come woman in the far back were both edited out.
Did the analysis take forced perspective into account? If Obama is sitting back away from the table, he’s going to look smaller than he is. Without a second angle, it’s hard to tell by how much.
And of course, as noted above, the photo was staged anyway.
I always thought this pic looked bogus
Incredible shrinking man.

He is tall but of slight build and he is hunching forward.
People see what they want to see. I’ve seen “Experts” argue for days over this kind of thing. One says it’s OBVIOUS one way and the other one says it’s OBVIOUS the other way.
The only pertinent fact is that he was golfing 20 minutes before our troops went in.
Most FReepers knew it was a fake when it first came out.
It is hard to miss.
Someone else here said when this was first published, Obama makes it look like ‘take your kid to work day’ at the White House.
Interesting. I remember the day the photo came out, (I hadn’t seen it yet) and Rush was amazed that somebody released it. He said “He looks like the smallest guy in the room!” Rush didn’t suspect a fake, but he thought it made the kenyan look insignificant.
“The WH already said this was not a real picture, there was nothing on the screen when it was shot. They said it was staged.”
Didn’t realize they’d said this.
Similar article was posted here on FR close to the time of the killing of Osama.
Same photo, but I do not remember the source. Suspect it was from here in U.S.
Same conclusion then.
Someone questioning this photo yet his FAKED birth certificate gets no attention?
I thought when I first saw this photo that it was ODD. Here we supposedly have the POTUS sitting on a stool? while the Air Force guy is sitting in the biggest office chair I ever saw. No one says “ here, Mr. President have the best chair in the room and the one with the best view of the action”.
“Never mind I’ll just sit over here on this milk crate”.
It looked fake the minute I saw it. Obama in the corner?
So I went to that site and they’ve photoshopped a picture of a much larger-looking guy in between Biden and Obama. Do you know what’s up with that?
The wide angle lens used would also enhance that perception.
Fake president, in a fake photo.
This isn’t photoshopped. He looks just as small, useless and irrelevant as usual.
Stalin had Lenin ‘photoshopped’ into this old pic. They were not sitting together on that bench at all.
More Fascists and Photoshop... they know the value of lies and propaganda...
When did they say this? Do you have a link? I recall reading that someone had said that the operation was not on the screen at the time the picture was taken, but not that they had said that Obama wasn’t there and that the picture was a photoshop.
In so many ways that is true, even without any Photoshop.

If that's a Photoshop job, it's a damn good one. The saturation of shadows and depth of field feels correct. I agree that Obama's size is due to the forced perspective of the photograph. He's probably about 4 feet behind Biden, which would make him look smaller. What I'm curious about is the purposely pixel-redacted document sitting on Hillary's laptop. A photo of Bill caught in the act??? LOL
I thought that too when it first came out. However, Obamas chair is much smaller than the one to his left which would diminish his size.
I’ll try and find it. This info came out when the WH said that they were going to stop refilming those walks that BHO does down to the podium to speak. You know that shot with the long hall in the back ground, evidently they practice those until he “looks good”. Just weird.
Teeny Ears. That’s the giveaway.
Notice that the shadow cast by everyone’s nose is long, while Obama’s is short. Strange.
It’s actually worse than photoshopped. They dragged him off the golf course, got a folding chair, and got the potus into the picture. If only slipped into the background. It is more telling than a photoshop.
I think its real...if they faked it, they wouldn’t make O look like he had just been yanked off the golf course. Although tall @ 6’1”, he always looks tiny...like in the iconic photo of him hanging drapes, or quite frankly any photo of him next to his wife.
Ding ding!
But it's more fun to speculate that it's 'shopped.
Also, if you'll look, the camera was focused on Hillary's face. Given the depth of field that appears in the photo, Obama appears to be out of focus by about the right amount.
too good
MSM will let it slide just like all the rest including the 57 States Gaff.
= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
Also remember that BO and MCLAME either both had an obvious gaff or were ‘slow’ and/or incoherent in answering during a debate.
“THEY” said John was old and senile (true) but pooh pawed BO off with “He is tired and on a tight schedule” or some other such trite.
No mystery here, DumBO had to photoshop his presence here to cover the fact he pulled the trigger on bin Laden in Pakistan.
OK, I think I recognize everybody except one...
Who’s the lady right in front of Mr. Clean?
The fact that every other “expert” on here chimes in to say why it’s def photo shopped, astounds me.
Staged or posed is one thing, but they certainly have the people available to appear in a photo, there is no need to photo shop.
What leads me to believe (as I did then) this was a fake is that anyone as Narcissistic and so full of himself as Dear Leader is, would NEVER cede the position of “honor” to anyone, especially a “Military” person; he would have insisted a pic be taken only after he assumed his “Rightful” place as Community Agitator in Least!!!
