Jeb Bush Super PAC Sends Mailer To 86,000 Iowans With Jeb’s Head Photoshopped Onto A Black Body

OOpps lol
"Jeb Bush has been lagging in the polls, trailing Donald Trump by a wide margin nationally and in early states.
Nevertheless, he’s still considered one of the most likely eventual nominees by pundits and political experts. One reason why is his Super PAC, Right To Rise, which has raised over $100 million, dwarfing his competitors.
But having money is one thing. Spending it wisely is another.
Yesterday, Right To Rise announced they were sending a mailer to 86,000 Iowa households touting Bush’s candidacy."

His chest and shoulders are much bigger in the ad pic than this one.

And, if you elect the head in this photo, you'll get the PhotoShop guy in the White House and lots of other incompetents too.

Why on earth did they start with a black model for their photoshopping??? In any case, I guess Jeb's body isn't ready for prime time, lol.

Look at the hand they did bother to change. Check out the shading. One of the crappiest Photoshops ever for a supposed professional.

That's just sad people.

Perhaps Jeb is sending a secret message about the Serbs starting WWI.

besides the black hand, the head is way too small for the body.

And yes, the one white hand has a totally amateurish shadow.

Take a look at "black hand" at Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Hand

The "black hand" almost always is taken by extortionists, mafiosi, terrorists, etc. I'd like to think someone is getting cute, but I'm pretty sure it's just stupidity on their part (Hire the cheapest photoshop guy!). And why oh why would you start with a black body?

OK, so now we get to listen to his ridiculous explanations, totally blaming his staff and saying he had no knowledge of it whatsoever.
