True enough. If it's faked...it's a damned fine job.

I think he salutes that way so that photogs get a pic of his face. Stepping of the plane, mr photo op, probably does a quick study of where the reporters are and salutes in a way that would obstruct his face. If he saluted correctly here his arm would cover his face at that picture angle. Probably a prop soldier too.
Boy I would love to meet him.

It looks like he could be shilding his eyes from the sun... That's just me.

His salute is NOT being returned As a civilian, kerry should not even be rendering a salute and even if he does it should not be returned.

"...Not to mention, his form is pathetic.
I'm too disgusted to try to think of a caption...."
And he's in civilian dress. One can't salute someone if they are in civvies can they, even if they were once in the military? Besides, what's wrong with his RIGHT hand? Is Lurchenstein so much of a leftist, he does most everything with his LEFT side? Enough of this jerk already.

The zipper on his jacket appears to be on the right side.

President...er...Senator Kerry, reporting for duty. Waaahhh.
To: Gomez
I've genuflected facing the door. I'm not in a position to fault him for that. Of course, I wasn't running for the office of Pope...
To: LoneSome Journey
A "possible" explanation is that he injured his right amr or shoulder, but with kerry, there is no way to tell why he'd do something like that. he might just be showing his real contempt for the military.If he were caught off guard with a large piece of luggage in his right hand, would that make it excusable?

Give Kerry a break, if you were married to Terraaaza your right hand would be sore also.

john kerry is a flip-flopper... ;)
To: Bloody Sam Roberts
Is the "US AIR FORCE" label on the other person's uniform in the right place? Does it belong above the left side pocket?************

He was just picking his nose and dosen't want anyone to see the boogers on his right finger.
To: Gomez
I'll guess that he did it on purpose because the photographer is on his right side and a proper salute would hide his pretty face.*************
Good guess. It makes sense, given Kerry's past performance.

I get a blood pressure spike every time I see that crooked, open thumb piss poor salute.What is the military rule on saluting when your right hand is unavailable, say, in a sling? Do you salute with the left hand or not at all?

I don't even want to begin to try. This is further proof that this guy is a moron, a fool and a traitor to the Republic. a pure communist loving socialist pig.

Actually, it looks like JFnQerry might have been inserted into that photo. That doesn't excuse his saluting leftie but the original phot from which it was cropped might be something different entirely.
As someone else mentioned, comparing the edges of the figures sees Qerry as "very sharp" and the AFOfficer somewhat fuzzy.

I remember seeing a group of three soldiers in salute, and one had his right arm in a sling and so saluted with his left hand.
However, there doesn't appear to be anything wrong with Kerry's right hand.
