The pic is not linked to a news website, but rather a personal photo server folder (tinypic.com). I conclude it to be photoshopped.

Also, note that buttons on a man's shirt are typically on the left, and it looks like this is the case in the pic. Evidence mounting against manipulation.

But he saluted with his right hand before saluting with his left hand.

Something about this picture looks funny - notice the out-of-focus edge of the face of the gentleman on the right, yet the absolutely sharp edge of sKerry's face. And sKerry looks significantly better lit than the other gentleman.

Not that I doubt for a minute that sKerry might botch a salute - to use the Dan Blather defense, "While the document may be fake, we fully believe the content." :)

Caption: Is there anyone LEFT in the military who'd vote for me?

Zipper pull is normally on the right, as in the photo.

This is how we saluted each other when we threw our metals over the White House fence, and protested the Vietnam War. Ha!

is it real or a flipped photo?

To answer that question, you need the answer to another question:

Is the "US AIR FORCE" label on the other person's uniform in the right place? Does it belong above the left side pocket?

I flipped it back in an image viewer and the US Air Force on the uniform does not read correctly.

If it's a photoshop, it's not a basic "rotate", but more involved.

"I was for saluting with my right hand before I decided against it"

Or

"Left hand, leftist, liberal. What, your surprised?"

This smells like a vast right wing conspiracy.. If it is a doctored photo it is on the same scale as the Dan Rather CBS news criminal forgery attempt... We better fire four scapegoats and bury this thing quick.

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.

Also note the his jacket's zipper on his right side, which is correct.

This is a real photo IMO. And I'm not surprised.

It looks like the zipper pull is on the right and the placket on his shirt is on the left, buttons on the right.

Unless he...WEARING WOMEN'S CLOTHES!?!
