Maybe this article popped up so Obama can say in response to legitimate requests for his birth certificate: "Look, people are even saying I tried to fake my school basketball team photo!"

I'm quite sure Obama's team is looking to discredit the right wherever they can.

Yeah, I’m suspicious about this. I’m no expert in Photoshop image analysis, but generally fakes are uncovered by aspects of the image itself—repeated background, odd shadows.

For someone to rely on the Photosho STAMP without any evidence from the photo itself is ridiculous. I’ve worked in desktop publishing for over 15 years. Whenever I get a scan or a photograph I want to put in the mag what do I do? Scan it into Photoshop. The mere fact that someone used the program means absolutely nothing. It is useful for all kinds of harmless corrections like improving contrast, cropping, etc.

Antoninus, I hate to waste your time with this...but I’m pinging anyway.

This could well be a plant. What’s the deal with this website? Who owns it?

Either that or it’s just somebody who is a little overeager to uncover their own scandal.
