Warning, Bush naked (dick pixelated, luckily)

This image has been bandied about on a few other forums I visit... do you think this is real?

I'm extremely gullible and need other people to form opinions for me.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's real, but I'd like to wonder how tanked he was when they got the picture.

That looks more like Francis from Malcolm in the Middle then W.

Not particularly inclined to give it a close inspection (*shudder*), but the first thing that I thought when seeing the image (other than "DEAR GOD!") was "That doesn't look like Bush."

Exactly,i think like the Britney Spears pics,this one too is not the real guy...maybe they found a guy who look a little like GWB

Apart from asking the opinion of my esteemed fellow members here at SD.net, I really do not wish to persue the legitimacy of this photograph any further. I'll accept that it is real until I see evidence to the contrary.

Not a particularly wise idea. If it was genuine (as in the sense it really was our President) it might have raised some attention by now. Since it hasn't and it's not photoshopped my guess would be it's some sort of look alike.

Looks like Bush to me, droopy eye included.

And what's wrong with examining it up close? You ARE comparing the faces, AREN'T you? :wtf: :mrgreen:

The neck area looks a little weird to me, I dunno.

Doesn't look Bush to me. Bush's face is a bit more rounded than this guy's.

It certainly looks like him in the face and the picture quality is right for the time period when Bush might have actually done something like this, but look at those spindly arms and legs. Bush is a pretty big guy and he was always in shape, even in his coke binge days.

And this guy's head looks disproportionately large for his body; GWB's does not.

EDIT: On closer inspection, are we SURE this isn't a photoshop job, with Bush's eyes and nose cropped onto someone else's face? Maybe I'm seeing things, but the subject's "T zone" seems to be slightly lighter than the rest of the face, and the slightly lighter patch is deliniated by perfectly straight lines.

That one be one helluva talented photoshopper. I can't see the difference.

And the body seems right to me, if a tiny bit... gaunt, I suppose, around the stomach. The arms seems a little thin, but that may just be me. The head isn't shaped just right...

I can't be sure. It looks like it very well could be Bush, but you'd think it could have attracted more media attention. It doesn't look like a photoshop job, and the resemblance is striking. I'm holding off judgement, but I'm inclined to say 'yes'.

I don't know where it came from, I found it posted on another forum I frequent... I'm sure the media at large is holding off it since they can't prove its legitimacy.

Or because people better at this than us have determined it's not him or it's fake.

Come on. A possible nude picture of the President of the United States turns up and NOBODY in the media says anything? Not even the tabloids? Not even Drudge? This would make blowjobgate look like a picnic if it were real.
