Have you seen THIS photograph? Do you know WHO created it??

posted by ASA Vet on 9/28/2001

On Friday, September 28, nationally syndicated conservative talk host Hugh Hewitt described this photo on his radio show, citing FreeRepublic as his source, and giving credit to the post by ASA Vet in particular.

Since then, Hugh's webmistress, Lynne (the WebXena) has reported HUNDREDS of requests for a link to this photo, and has posted a link to a DIFFERENT FR THREAD, with an image posted by FReeper archy, on www.HughHewitt.com.

An earlier thread with this image was started by RaceBannon on 9/27/2001 at 12:30:59 PDT.

1 - Is there an EARLIER post of this image anywhere on Free Republic?

2 - Does anyone know who "Bob McCown" is?
(MOST images posted seem to have the name "Bob McCown" printed in the lower right-hand corner.)

3 - Who is the REAL creator of this masterpiece? (And, can you PROVE it?)

Thank you.

Regarding the B52 photo.

Thanks! Either way, YOUR post is the one that got nationwide attention on the Hugh Hewitt show! Congratulations!

BTW, sorry for not knowing, but what does "ASA" stand for?

You may say in your heart, 'These nations outnumber me; how shall I be able to dispossess them?' Do not be afraid of them: remember how Yahweh your God dealt with Pharaoh and all Egypt, the great ordeals your own eyes have seen, the signs and wonders, the mighty hand and outstretched arm with which Yahweh your God has brought you out. So will Yahweh your God deal with all the peoples whom you fear to face. And what is more, Yahweh your God will send hornets to destroy those who remain and hide from you.

Do not be afraid of them, for Yahweh your God is among you, a God who is great and terrible. Little by little Yahweh your God will destroy these nations before you; you will not be able to make an end of them at once, or the wild beasts would grow too many for you. But Yahweh your God will deliver them over to you and will harass them until they are destroyed. He will deliver their kings into your hands and you will blot out their names from under heaven; none shall withstand you, until you have destroyed them all.

Whoops! That should be Base LINKS, not Base History.

Can you dig out the URL to at least post a LINK to the image? I cannot from here.

[RonDog]

I indend to post an entirely NEW "Morning Glory?" thread tomorrow.

I first saw it at IronPants.com forum the other day, emailed it to Bruce Tackett who sends me good things. I don't remember the article under which it showed up at IronPants....I think it was one under KOOK section. But this photo is a beauty, isn't it?

[RonDog]

What the heck is "Iron Pants?"

[WaterDragon]

Screen named "Iblis The Thrice-Damned Cacodemon" posted the photo at IronPants.com on Sept. 26th under the article titled "Hijackers Surprised to Find Selves In Hell: 'We Expected Eternal Paradise For This,' Say Suicide Bombers" That article is found in the "K.O.O.K. Keepers Of Odd Knowledge" section of IronPants.com
