Guess What? That photo that everyone is emailing around of Sarah Palin is fake

The funny thing is that none of my “liberal” friends who have emailed the gun-totting-bikini-clad Sarah Palin photo to me are aware that it is not real.

Photo making the rounds:

Real photo before Photoshopping:

Rush to judgement? I don’t see conservatives emailing around doctored photos of Joe Biden in a bikini. Of course it is possible that that photo originated with Republicans who wanted to embarrass liberals who blindly email it along. Regardless, armed or not, it’s kind of a nice rack.

    Who’s the girl ???? Where can I find her comments and views on how her personal photo became the focal point of this messy prank. I wonder if the person that did this knew her ?…..because the photo caption mentioned the gun she was holding was a pellet (BB) gun. I really want to hear her go after who ever did this to her. Sarah Palin (I’m sure) would like a piece of the action too…..go get um girls.
