The Great Fake of 2008


Someone in the conservative bloggosphere flipped a photo of then-Senator Obama and photoshopped a cigarette between his lips. Presumably, this made him seem sinister and unsavory but others think it makes him come across as a 50s era hepcat; a connoisseur(or even a player) of bebop jazz who just finished a set with Miles and Bird.

Note also that the cigarette is approximately 125% larger than normal. Scale is always the photoshopper's curse.
