Because a photo coming out from the actual white house releases, not a "leak," would be enough proof for me BECAUSE of the fact they released it. Don't talk to me like I'm stupid because I don't trust my government.
It's hardly the first time a US president announced to the world an outright lie, Laelia. I'm old enough to remember several occasions.
I'm not saying presidents don't lie, but it seems odd that you would accept an easily faked "proof" when his word isn't enough. If Obama is lying about this, he could easily lie about the nature of a photo, too.
Oh, I don't know that you could fault us on that. Faked evidence is all the rage here. Emma Watson is leaving Brown because somebody photo-shopped her head onto some topless tits, and Democrats were pretty quick to believe that faked memo that got Dan Rather fired. There's probably more than a few that still believe it despite it being proved a fraud, or as Dan Rather has put it, even if the evidence is fake, the story is true.
I'm pretty sure there are experts that can confirm whether or not an image has been altered, so there's that, as well.
The whole thing has stunk from top-to-bottom, not releasing the photo is kind of the icing on the cake.
