Remember this picture?

Haw-haw - here's the original.



I'm just so naive. I bought this, without chewing first ;-)
And now I'll never know what that guy was ... um ...looking for in Bushes crotch.

Anyway, it seems some Swedish bloggers are wondering who photoshopped it, and has their own investigation (and caption contests) going.

The pic was a part of an archive on some EU website.

God damn! My world is coming crashing down every day now.
Splendid photoshopping, though.

It made the top of our local news:

Headline: What the hell is Bush and Prodi doing?

cause I sure thought that image was real.

Excellent photoshopping!

2. The original still looks like there is something going on

Is the guy on the right trying to remove the demons from bu$h and on the left, I don't know but it looks like he is just finished feeling the chimp up and is trying to look coy about it.

6. The real photo:" I am gonna reach into your chest and rip your heart out!"

bush: good luck finding one fella

3. Ya know, if they scalped the guy in the back to make him look bald

he's look a little like the current Guckert/Gannon (as opposed to those older, in better shape "pick up tricks" pictures)

5. LOL!

It's the Swedish PM - Goran Karlsson.

I'll say he's contemplating a good ass-kick. Weighing the political pros and cons from a bilateral angle, perhaps? :shrug:
