Kerry Sticks Finger In Marine's Chest -- NOT! Here's the Proof
Mullings ^ | August 3. 2004

Posted on 08/03/2004 5:29:37 PM PDT by bimboeruption

The question is: "Is Kerry sticking his bony, well-manicured, girly, index finger in the chest of the Marine pictured here?"

The answer is "No."

After optimizing the pic with Photoshop and Image Optimizer, what looks like Kerry's finger is actually the top piece of a wooden frame that holds a mirror and is attached to the window.

There is another mirror just like it behind the Marine, to the right of his elbow.

I really should be hitting the hay, but I've got to see her response to your post.

Thanks for another pic showing how libs eat, Maggie.

Look at Edwards. Just how WIDE does one have to open one's mouth to insert a french fry?

Mrs. Edwards is a true slob. She and Mrs. Kerry remind me of unkempt fire plugs.

The better question is:

Why is the cameraman on the right filming Kerry's nether regions.

I'll save her the trouble so you can get some sleep.

She'll say that they were in the process of taking down the frame so that the photographers could get a clear shot, which is why it was so crooked in the first picture.

The window in question is the one behind the messy hanging plant. You can see the less messy plant (fully inside the gold bowl), a light, and the messy plant from the other angle in the other picture.

As best I can tell from looking around 55 seconds into this news report from News 12 Westchester (click on "play this video after clicking on the link), there are six windows on each side of that Wendy's.

The window in question is the second from the wider black beam.

Good work!

Maybe it really IS his finger and it got pixelated or distorted somehow.

I am not sure I agree with your solution. So maybe this isn't cleared up afterall?

You can see in the video that only that one corner window has a poster on it.

I guess not lady. I wish we had a clearer pic.

No problem. I liked it.

If that's the side Kerry was on, yes.

And they also got Tuh-ray-zuh claiming she and her husband had the chili and Ben Affleck acting like an idiot in the rest of the report.

Looks like a legit photo, and those binocs have honeycomb "killflash" finlters that prevent off-axis glare from giving away one's position. Pretty routine stiff on the battlefield. And they can have little loop harnesses like you see, so that they can be removed if desired.

These are the window, only the one on the far left has anything in it. There was no frame, it was his finger.

Teresa was talking to her straw in her drink while answering reporters. Weird.

There's a Clinton photo just like this. His must have had the same filter on it.

Kerry's finger is not that long.

I think it is because you can see the campaign bus from the inside photo.

I like the picture of Edwards with his hand on the shoulder of the seated Marine. Edwards restrained the Marine after Kerry accused the other Marine of not earning all of his medals. Edwards said "Now calm down son - we all know you could whip John's butt from here to Cleveland. And if you do - I'll sue you."
