First Google "McCain" and you'll see that he's really not that all photogenic. As a matter of fact, a lot of his expressions are just downright ridiculously childish. A trait shared by another Republican fuck wad we all know and love.

Next, Google "Obama" and you get expressions one would associate with a mature adult.

More proof that we're on the right side.

3. The media reflects our national sentiments, as do the candidates, IMO.
Poor John McCain continues to make foolish statements, and make a fool of himself, while Barak Obama continues to conduct himself with honesty and just looks dignified. The Google pix just reflect what's already there, IMO...:shrug:

5. Thank you, my friend!
The thing is that the media is driving this campaign, but they are, in a larger sense, correct. It makes me nuts, that they're micromanaging this and focusing on the silliest small issues, but they can't make up in images what isn't already there...:shrug::hi:

6. Try Hillary.
This is NOT to rehash the primaries. She had some absolutely beautiful pictures of her.

At other times, she had pictures that made her look like a deranged lunatic.

Love a politician or hate them, politicians are in the spotlight constantly, and there are more pictures taken of them than of any of us. Naturally some are unflattering.

Of course, the unflattering Google images are linked to rabid-RW websites that would be more than happy to post any shot of Obama that could possibly make him look negative. I heard people saying that he looked "geeky" in the picture wearing a helmet on his bicycle. (My thought was no, he's cautious, and it's a good thing.)

7. You're absolutely right.
And Hillary is my senator, voted for her twice, though she was not my candidate for president. But I think that Mr. Scorpio's point is that there's a rare bad pic of Obama, and he's right about that. He is a candidate that never looks foolish, and I agree about the bicycle pic. We could use a cautious and dignified president, for a change...:-)

9. Absolutely
One shouldn't even focus on the bad Photoshopping and cartoons.

I'm talking about actual unaltered photos

It's a good way to gauge character between the two

10. Agreed. I have yet to see a bad pic of Barak Obama.
I see foolish pix of George Bush* on Letterman's "Great Moments in Presidential Speeches" every night. This is one man who just cannot look dignified. I was just saying, during Letterman last night, that I'm going to miss those segments, my favorite part of the show. There's not much to make fun of with Obama, so the comedians are going to have a really dry spell... :-)
