FAUXBAMA HEAD EVOLVING RE GAY MARRIAGE

YES!!!

Thank you, Phil D. x, take a look. His head is huge in the photoshopped pic with the woman because it was photoshopped, it’s patently obvious! The freak has a tiny head.

So are there two Obamas? Big-head Obama and small-head Obama? For certainly there are big-headed Obama photographs out there. Small-headed Obama photographs also exist, particularly when his hair is short or he's wearing that jacket.

Notice in the the sofa picture that Obama is leaning back, with his chin forward closer to the camera and the rest of his head apparently resting on the top of the sofa. This produces a foreshortening effect that makes the head look smaller than it otherwise would.

His legs, which are closer to the camera than the rest of his body, also look larger than they would appear to be if everything were in the same plane. Do you really not notice that? This is all Perspective 101.

And perhaps, if you look at that sofa photo long enough, it may also start to look fake -- something about the contrasts between the shirts and the couch. If you look at anything long enough it will look fake. Just about anything can look pasted in if you stare at it for a while.

Here's big-head Obama, another photo taken in the stacks at Harvard Law. Obama may be leaning into the camera, or the photographer may be leaning or pointing in such a way as to make Obama's head appear larger. Perhaps a lens is used that distorts everything, including the bookcases:

Here is small-head Obama with what could be the same jacket as the Genevieve picture, taken about the same time as the Harvard Law big-head Obama pictures:

By golly if it doesn't look a little fake, too. Actually, though, the head's the same size, but the coat and the collar make the head look smaller than it would if weren't wearing the extra layers.

I'm not saying that Obama actually had much of a relationship with Genevieve. And I'm not saying that the picture definitely isn't or couldn't have been faked. I'm just saying that it wouldn't have been impossible for such a picture to have been taken. It wouldn't have been necessary to have faked such a picture -- maybe he wasn't quite that scared of girls. And sometimes one has to have a little skepticism about one's own skepticism. Not everything that looks a little odd or unnatural is faked or photoshopped.
