Is Barack Obama actually not in this photo of Barack Obama?
Salon ^ | 4/7/2001 | Alex Pareene

Posted on 04/07/2011 5:08:49 PM PDT by Kleon

Jack Cashill, the right-wing journalist currently winning the national game of "'prove' the most outlandish thing you possibly can about Barack Obama" with his both his theory that Bill Ayers ghost-wrote "Dream From My Father" and his claim that the president's father was actually Jimi Hendrix, dropped a bombshell today: Barack Obama is not actually in a photo of Barack Obama and his grandparents.

I never thought anything about the photo until I saw this. I loaded into one of my photo programs and zoomed in. It looks extremely fishy if you look at Grandpas legs and then Obama's. Something was definitely changed. Also if you look at the left side of Obama you can see distortion that looks exactly the same as where Obama's legs are. Not the same background as Grandpa. Just weird!

There have been so many threads on these pictures arguing about them. I don't know what is photoshopped or isn't except what I've photoshopped myself or is clearly from another freeper. I don't think anyone will ever get to the bottom of it.

Where did he find this “knee” photo?

Am I wrong, but didn’t someone break that photo down (on FR), removing Obama, to attempt to prove a photoshop?
I could swear someone on here actually did this, to mesh the grandparents together.

Did the author just merely find the altered photoshop which removed Obama?

Who knows....

Salon just noticed? People have been talking about how that photo was obviously doctored ever since Obama started running for POTUS.

And it’s not the only doctored photo, either.

I don't know who has posted the pic for granny and grandpa with the little barry, but grandpa's hand could NOT in anyway be over barry's shoulder; its a totally fake photo...

the question is...is this just some juvenile trick or did someone really think they could throw this pic out to reasurre all of us old whitey racists that barry was just a good ol boy and a loving grandson....

This photo was debated early this morning:

Thread Here

There are some problems with the theory. The largest being: How can you use a non-original, photshopped photo to prove that another photo is a photoshopped photo? There are many other issues to focus on in regards to Obama - it is fruitless to spin wheels on something that cannot be conclusively documented.

lol... I know of the picture with Sarkosy you are referring to and yes it does show 0 has a very long arm.

The knee left in thing is odd. Granny does seem to be snuggled up next to Gramps with this black thing in between. Like someone said up thread. Nothing means anything without a negative which I am sure is lost to time for any number of reasons.

Good observation! He posed on the bench on his own, then was inserted between the Dunhams...that’s why the wall was destroyed, it needed to be, to insert the IMAGE OF ZERO.

Nope, that just can’t be. I saw Hendrix live in concert in 1970 and I asked him if he had a kid named Barack Hussein and he said hell no.

Sorry Fred, this is a wild goose chase, just as Hinmann’s was going after a Canadian birth certificate. Can you say Alinsky? Just where did this conspiracy of “the picture” all start anyway? Has there been one picture of Obama’s colllege past that hasn’t been called photo shopped? And please explain the obvious shadow of gramps hand on Obama’s shoulder to me will ya?

Nope, I’m not getting “Hinmann Suckered” into this conspiracy

Barack Obama can be seen near the back of this crowd witnessing MLK speech.

NOT INTERESTED IN WHAT YOU BELIEVE OR DON’T BELIEVE...all I am trying to show you is HOW it came about that zero WAS REMOVED from the image to start with.
