You know what I've noticed about images of Obama?

He has a set of jug ears - nothing wrong with that, but if you look at
images of him head on, they are photoshopped to flatten them out.

I first noticed this yesterday when I got my US News and World
magazine - I checked images in Time and Newsweek - they all need to
get the same photo editor because the differences in how they treat
his ears are markable. :)

Another thing they do is thin out his nose - what that means, I don't
know - again, it's just something I noticed - nothing wrong with it -
happens all the time, but the problem is that different editors do it
in different ways.

You'd figure they would come up with a template and pass it around.

It will be intersting to watch the "debate" tonight - be the first one
I watched this season.

Now I am going to have to check that out, I have never noticed what you
are saying, but I have noticed that in most of Hillary's photos she
looks silly, stupid or crazy with really weird expressions. Since these
are included in left leaning news sources, I can't figure out why they
don't have some more flattering photos of Hillary. They look like
photos Saturday Night Live or Jon Stewart would use as part of a comedy bit.

I agree - I can't figure if that's intentional or not. It's not like
she's - um...gorgeous, but she has a certain unresolved beauty. I
also think that she has a body image issue in that you almost never
see her wear skirts or medium length dresses - it's always heavily
tailored pants suits in flat colors. Maybe she has piano legs, but
then so did Thatcher and Golda Mier. :)

In my opinion, not that it means anything, I think she would have been
much better off with louder, more splashy wardrobe and darker makeup -
she presents as pasty white which isn't very healthy looking. She
might have taken a shot at skirts and dressed anyway.

Then again, she wouldn't be who she is if she did that.

Hey - it's not about the clothes, but for a woman running for what has
been traditionally a male job, you'd think she needed to emulate more
female characteristics than male.

Does 'unresolved beauty' mean 'shrewish'? That's the way she appears to me.
In her CBN interview today, parts of which were in the news, she seemed to
have spent some time in a tanning salon. Maybe she took your advice.

Shrewish - I thought she was Methodist.

BAAWWWAAAHHHAHAAAA!!!!

Um...

Anyway - what I mean is that she has a look that is not defined -
there is not real strong definition in her appearance - bland, but not
in an unpleasing way.

However, I do agree with you - she could do with voice lessons.

Can't do, you'd see her balls hanging out.

Farah Fawcett photos "cleavage" where there was none.
