I don't think this should count as a Photoshop fail, because it's a win for truth...

This is so bad it's awesome. The best marriage Photoshop can buy ;-P

When was this? The trip home from selfie-gate?

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

I think the hand underneath is this person, just too short to be seen in the front shot?

[basil]

Any way you slice it—that’s one weird photo….

[GraceG]

Even the North Korean news agency does better.

So does Iran

[Lizavetta]

Where did you find this? The original source photo is needed or it is just as likely you can be blamed for it.

Exactly what I thought. No info on where this photo came from.

[Never on my watch]

You are exactly right... That explains it. No Photoshop, just an unfortunate alignment.

[bkopto]

Check out the thunder thighs on Lt. Worf’s daughter. No wonder heavy airlift is needed.

[trisham]

That makes sense. She’s short enough compared to michelle.

so can the term "beard" be used for a man too?.....as in a situation where a lesbian takes a man along on a date to show she's not a lesbian?

I think I speak for most women, but being involved with any guy who donks other guys even just "part time" would not be my cup of tea...how can the wookie stand it?....of course look at the side benefits of riches and fame well beyond what she would have ever garnered on her own...

[1st Division guy]

that is good to know

[Wiser now]

Look closely and you can see Michelle’s hand coming out of the orange sleeve behind the “Hand hold”.

Good question, cherry. I would imagine but I am not well-versed in the homosexual lexicon. (I only realized what "beard" referred to about 10 years ago, and that was in reference of a homosexual man with a female accompanying him).

[Chewbarkah]

Yezhov? Kto Yezhov?

[jjotto]

‘Beard’ is generic for anyone acting secretly for another, but is increasingly used to mean specifically cover for homosexuals.

[Chewbarkah]

Well, give that lady a hand — she deserves it.

Some “reporter” needs to show this to Carney during the next presser and ask for an explanation. Does the White House routinely falsify photos, or was this an exception?

[MeshugeMikey]

It appears from additional evidence that the fail was produced to introduce controversy.

the arm on which the additional unclasped hand appears is also a tad too long to work

[nascarnation]

Who is the older woman?
Just curious.

[bimboeruption]

Wookie’s mother.

[funfan]

Michelle’s mother I believe.

[nascarnation]

She looks pretty good for 76.
