The Tautology of Hope [Mark Hemingway]
I’m pretty sure this is photoshopped, but either way it says volumes about Obama’s vapid sloganeering:
Oho. Well. If that’s the level to which the National Review is reduced these days, then we’re pretty sure this is Photoshopped, but either way it says volumes about…

It says volumes about Mark Hemingway that his photoshopped head fits perfectly onto all those pictures. He needs to get a different head, otherwise people will just keep photoshopping it onto other bodies.
We’re waiting, Mr. Hemingway…

I never did much like Cadbury Creme Eggs to begin with - so this has my blessings.
Such is the joy of making an ass out of an asshole - most of the groundwork has already been done by the asshole themselves! just add reality & mix - ready in 5 minutes.
I doubt your opponent is worthy - & if their IQ soars into the realm of the 3-digit level & they value their rep, they’ll eschew bringing attention to this with any kind of rejoinder at all.

If Barack Obama doesn’t give Atlas Juggs his original birth certificate, social security card, hair, skin, and blood samples, checkbook, ATM card and pin number, we have no choice but to conclude he is a secret Muslim planning to surrender the United States to the forces of the Hollow Urf.

During the course of my analysis several calls were made to various departments in the Hawaiian State Government in an attempt to better understand the process and procedures used to create, print, and distribute copies of the COLB form. While I was brushed off or hung up upon by almost all of the people I contacted I did manage to talk with a computer technician who was familiar with the computers and printers used by the Department of Health and the clerk’s offices.
No kidding!

Yes, but is he Serious? Anyone can be an expert, but for true analysis of the Issues that are Important to Real Americans you must be Serious like Tom Friedman.
Anyway, I’m fairly certain that McCain isn’t actually a Manchurian Candidate who will hand over the country to his communist masters, but either way it says volumes about about his traitorous, America hating nature.

This reminds me of that time earlier today when I was at the zoo with my 8 year old nephew. Nephew and I were in the primate house; while I watched this one primate operating his water fountain and drinking, nephew went a few cages down and began excitedly telling me to come down there to see the monkeys who were “playing”.
Uh…they were “playing” in the sense that adult animals of all species sometimes “play”. I’ll never forget the look on nephew’s face as he watched the top monkey thrusting away, and said, “…wait…are they…” I gently told him the primates in question seemed to be engaged in some hot monkey love and steered him away from the cage. Thank goodness there were no close-up hardcore shots.

Have they ever been seen in one place?
Have their birth certificates ever been seen in one place?
Don’t fight it.

That last photo–
What does it say, the fact that in the last photo, MH’s shoulders EXACTLY LINE UP with the contours of the bunny?
Talk about pomo. They’re left with, not “is this true,” but rather, “might some secondary operation on this material, albeit in the dimension of the imaginary,” hint that it “could be” true.
This actually makes sense. They start with the imaginary that they present as the real. It’s no big leap, then, to abstract from the not-true to a second-order not-true, and hint that it “means” something.
Nice photoshopping, G.

Having just watched a documentary on the making of All the President’s Men, I can safely say that Hemingway is the probable offspring of Carl Bernstein and Bobby Baccala from The Sopranos. Who lost all his hair.

In the diaper photo, it appears that Mark just woke up from a dream involving a menage a trois involving Mary Matalin, Margaret Thatcher and the nerdy monotone host of the game show “Win Ben Stein’s Money”.
Granted, the picture might have been photoshopped but it says a lot about what gives Mark a chub.

Errrm…….that guy in the diapers? I’m pretty sure that he’s one of the regulars at Butte’s Blood Clot Bar, calls himself “Huey”. He’s a Republican, so, its ok.
Here in The Heartland of the USA of America, we have more diversity than you LIE-bruls seem to understand. Everybody has their quirks and eccentricities, and we accept them for who they are (as long as they’re Republicans).

Off topic, but photo related:
On my Yahoo! homepage, the lead article is titled: Obama Begins Firsthand Look at Baghdad
The photo next to it is of a us soldier frisking a mooslim in the streets. It looks like Obama is getting shaken down by the troops.
I wish I knew how to save the damn thing and post it, but you should take a look.

Thank goodness the military takes the threat posed by secret Muslim and Indonesian trained jihadist Barack Hussein Obama X (who has a completely faked birth certificate and sends his followers to attack dissenters with dead rabbits). Clearly they need to check him for hidden weapons and / or unjustifiably large or artful words, which are just as dangerous and more easily concealed.

I don’t get it. Clearly there are only two choices on viewing the photo; either it has been Photoshopped or not. But he openly says he knows its been manipulated.
So, who changed the photo then? Again there are only two choices.
Against Obama - so this doesn’t say anything about Obama’s message, it just tries to make it seem silly.
Pro Obama - In this case you could argue it has something to say about Obama’s message (as conveyed by whatever staff did the ’shopping).
But why? For some unknown reason Obama’s stafffers manipulate this image and choose this odd wording? It doesn’t pass the giggle test. If someone shopped it, it was someone in opposition who wanted to make Mr. Obama’s slogans look foolish.
It says volumes about the effectiveness of his campaign messaging when his opponents see the need to attempt to blunt and caricature it like this.
