Speaker Hastert is grossly overweight. He looks bad anyway!

Poor AP photog - it's hard to take a picture when the camera's up your a$$!

To be fair, Hastert is hardly what anyone would consider photogenic in the first place. But, they always seem to make a silk purse out of that sow's rear end, Shrillary, so maybe you're right.

No doubt the Dummies will say he is secretly signalling to Karl Rove.ha.

When there's an uproar about a doctored photo or blatant mis-quote, the public relations guy releases a statement saying that one of their anonymous editors made an honest mistake. AP and Reuters should make notation of who CHOSE the photos just as much as who took the photos. I'd say it's as important as citing who wrote the article but I've noticed AP and Reuters often leave that tag off.

It's to make the right look out of control - radical - extreme!
That's how the media cooperates with the dems!
