Is that the famous group, "Drugged Out Dimbulbs"?



Or, more to the point, why should we care? I don't know their names, but I bet I know WHAT they are -

Entertainers.

Let's see here....


The Dixie Chicks sing Country music.

Country music fans are mostly rednecked cowboy types.

They tend to be more patriotic than a random sample of the American population - by several orders of magnitude.



I think I can safely predict a downturn in their careers.

:rolleyes:



One can hope, anyway.

Not a half-bad PhotoShop fake.
The specular highlight on Saddam's forehead is inconsistent with the direction of light on the Dixie Chicks, and it's also the wrong color, but other than that, well done.

I give it a B.

Justin,

The dumpy one looks like she ate her lipstick, and the trick on the right has strange mottling in her complexion.

It's also unusual for one subject to be looking to the right and the other three to be looking to the left.

Seems like the original light was on him based on the glare on the paneling on the right.

His left hand on the trick on his left seems a bit unnatural unless he can scratch his toe without bending over.

Don't have any idea who did the photo. It was emailed to me.

Sure! At least you're more photogenic than I am, at least that's why they SAID I was turned down. :D

Three things that struck me immediately that said it was a fake were the girls looking straight or right and SH looking left, SH's left hand sure looks feminine, and his handkerchief is in his right breast pocket (most suits don't have one so his image is therefore reversed).

Yup, especially those. After all, that's where we got our styles from, not the other way around. Ya know, Saville Row and all that, eh wot?

I went searching for a photo of SH so I could show you what I meant and guess what - I found the photo that was used in the fake: http://teacher.scholastic.com/scholasticnews/indepth/iraq/hussein.htm
