PHOTOS Nudeness. Well, sort of.

*** warning: gratuitously opportunistic and, frankly, indefensible posting of that Washingtonian cover with semi-clad President, fraudulently disguised as just a 'news of the day' thread. Shameless? Of course. Gorgeous? F**k yes :blush: ***







A woman reads a copy of the May 2009 Washingtonian with a cover photo of President Barack Obama April 23, 2009 in Washington,DC. A shot of a bare-chested US President Barack Obama on the cover of a popular Washington magazine had some fans swooning while others cried foul saying the image had been doctored.

3. Newsweek "44." Bush ruined the whole number thing.

Along with a lot of the gravitas of the office, of course.

4. Jackeens, you are so cute! As if a hot, shirtless Obama is something to be embarrassed about!

Not porn AT ALL, lol!

[Jackeens]

11. Jackeens, you are so good at being so bad.....Many thanks.

[Jackeens]

12. Jeez, that was what my Granny used to say to me. I don't think her 'bad' was good.

:hi:

6. Is it disrespectful to drool over the POTUS?

:loveya:

[Jackeens]

8. Absolutely. Shame on you BattyDem, you are a disgrace.

Meanwhile, this is a pic I took of myself a minute ago:

14. What a thing to complain about, they changed the color of his shorts, boo hoo

Of course they did, in the original shot his swim trunks were black, and since the magazine cover is black, it makes sense they changed the color of the shorts so as to not make him look odd.
For some reason people are calling that "unethical" :wtf:

[babylonsister]

15. Your warning is worth the price of admission! Ha! Rec'd. nt

[Honeycombe8]

16. How was the image photo-shopped? I remember seeing him shirtless before. Seemed the same to me. ?

How is it different?

[babylonsister]

17. Changed the color of his shorts, made his skin look more 'golden',

changed the background, etc. HuffPo had a story that's around here somewhere.

[Honeycombe8]

18. Oh, for cryin' out loud. Is THAT all? Just to make the colors on the cover look better, I'd guess.

No biggie.

19. I hope she at least laminates the pages.
