It's apparent that Clintonian methods are being employed. Kerry supporters are "hiding the truth in plain sight."
Some pro-Kerry news employee knew it would look bad if Kerry were rudely pointing his finger,(as Teresa had (undeniably) recently rudely pointed her).
So, when his boss told him to use the picture, the Kerryite decided to use Photoshop to elongate the finger in the picture.
The Kerryite knew the altered picture would be questioned.
I laughed when I read this. Actually, I laughed at all the time I wasted on this thread.
But you know, I think you're right. The angle is wrong for something hanging and that one shot above looks like someone PShopped a rectangle over the finger.
