Magazine Photoshops the Black Off Barack
TMZ ^ | 4-21-09

Posted on 04/21/2009 12:55:30 PM PDT by truthandlife

Barack Obama on the cover of the new issue of the Washingtonian (left) and the exact same candid pic that TMZ posted in December (right).

The editor-at-large tells TMZ the decision to change Obama's swimsuit from black to red was "purely artistic" because of the background being black.

They increased the contrast and added more color... to make Oloser appear “black and toned”.

I guess adding the slight extra muscle definition was due to the background as well...

They had to use an old picture. He’s probably 20 lbs. skinnier now.

Tall skinny girl is what he is.

I remember when Peter Parker got in trouble for staging a Spider-Man photo. How low the profession has fallen since those days.

still needs a bra for those sagging breasts of his and either he has been working out on the campaign trail very very hard to get a flat stomach since the last photo which was taken on the beach or that is photo shopped as well

is there no end that the media will spin their messiah.

to think that these idiots and little college girls will be going ohh and ahh

thought we were supposed to have a president not a media whore and a rock star combined

THOSE are saggy man-boobs even with the photoshop touch.

saggy man-boobs at that age? Pre-mature release of estrogen dude. Makes for one emotional, weepy, passive president. Many a night is Michelle frustrated...
