  • Wardrobe Malfunction?

    Both Chris Lawrence and James Joyner note the, um, revealing nature of a dress worn by Senator Kerry's daughter at Cannes (Joyner has the pic, as does Drudge and likely any number of sites).

    This kind of thing, not unlike the under-age beer buying of one of the Bush daughter's a while back always raise tis kind of question in my mind: You do know that your Dad is running for/is President, don't you?

    I mean, gee whiz, in the grand scheme of things no big deal (and as Ogged notes, flash photography is part of the issue here) but it would seem that more thought might ought to go into such activities if one would like not to draw undo attention to one's self, and especially one's father.

    In short: I am hardly scandalized by the dress--not that I would want my daughter to wear such, if I had a daughter--but the lack of thought that goes into some of these things is always remarkable to me.

    Yup. And I'm guessing you wouldn't want your sons to wear a dress like this out in public either.

    You can be guaranteed of that.

    Here's a work-safe but still captionable pic of Ms. Kerry.

    The BIGGER story out of Cannes is the size of Michael Moore. Holy crap! Was he the guy who made the movie "Supersize Me."

    Could you imagine Moore wearing the Kerry daughter dress?

    Oh, and I think it would be okay for Steven's sons to wear that dress. They had caffeine after all.

    The photoshopped fake is so obvious you have to wonder if conservatives have a brain.

    Yup, it's so good that it faked-out the AP:

    yeesh.

    Yeah, steven, it did. Besides, that is the second fake. There are now two versions of the photo (note the right hand. The second demonstrates better photoshop technique, but is still amatuerish.

    You have any experience with photoshop? Have a copy on your machine? Check it out. Open the two photos in Photoshop at 4 times magnification and voila! The fake is revealed.

    I give up.

    Don't give up! Michael Moore didn't give up! And look how fat he is!
