Okay, *that* needs to get slapped on a billboard and made required viewing for each member of Congress.
 
Nuts. I just remembered -- we'll have to tell Madame Speaker and her ilk that's what an American uniform looks like...
 
Ten to one they won't get it. Or they will say the pics were photoshopped. It is an amazing set of photos. PLOsi and Co. are...ppppfffttt.
 
It's already happened. This first appeared at least a week ago. Commenters immediately said it didn't look like an American uniform. And when that was put to rest, they decided it was photoshopped.
 
If that's a photoshop, it's a better-than-average of the species. Shadows, sun angle, consistency of movement and location...
 
...perspective, continuity...
 
Fuzzybear, if it's the blog I'm thinking of, the first commenter (AKA first out of the gate with a big mouth) later apologized for his original remarks, after more than a few vets schooled him -in great detail- on what's fashionable in Iraq these days. Apparently he wasn't familiar with stuff like desert-color infantry boots and the new digital cammo. Still, it doesn't surprise me that someone claims they're bogus, just as there's always that One Guy Who Didn't Get The Word, and "questions the timing..." The irony is that there are still otherwise very intelligent people who have put forth the idea that the Democrats "need" to win the White House in order to get serious about the Protracted Conflict. To borrow Cricket's term, "PLOsi and Co." have had plenty of time to get serious about this, and have done squat. For some odd, silly reason I am skeptical about their future seriousosity.
