So the photographer of that now famously photoshopped picture, the one where Sarah Palin's in a flag bikini holding a gun? He's having this very emo response to the comments on his Flickr.

Admit it.  You believed it because you wanted to.  That cynic in you didn't question it when you first saw the presumptive nominee for Vice President in a flag bikini and holding some sort of gun while standing next to a cement pond. 

Alas, though, the too perfect image, encapsulating a nation's fear is actually a photoshopped image (which may have originated here).  The original photographer seems to be a photo-nerd with a taste in books that combines Virginia Woolf and Ray Bradbury, and he's sort of in a fuzzy emo tizzy about it being used.

Developing.
