A photo appears on JohnKerry.com (and was reprinted in the Washington Post) that shows clear signs of having been clumsily doctored. Has this come up before?

Most obviously, look under Kerry's armpits. Clear sky below, blue water above. A complete novice to Photoshop could've done a better job. There are other signs of doctoring, too.
Why has nobody called Kerry on this?

Here's a tip: Don't whiff on your first swing.
Grab some bench.

Speaking of looking under armpits, this is one photo that really
should have been doctored . . .

Been examined, nothing wrong.Please explain... or better yet, link to prior discussion. I haven't seen this before, and if there's nothing wrong with it, I'd like to know. Is that part of the boat under his armpits? Is there a picture of a boat without someone standing in front of that part of it so I can see what it normally looks like?

Clear sky below, blue water above That's not clear sky below, it's the wake of the boat.

Yes, it seems like the word "Shadows" was in the title.....maybe just "Shadow" Looking at the faces and the side where the light is coming from.

If John Kerry's armpit in Vietnam was "doctored", there should be a Purple Heart Citation somewhere for it.

LOL.
Have you ever seen water before? Or a boat? Or men on a boat?
That you see blue sky in that photo is what's really freakin' me out. Read the label of your meds, please don't drive.
