Obama Campaign Using Fake Romney Picture?




 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
From USA Today: Sometimes, it's all about the picture.President Obama's campaign has been pummeling Mitt Romney all day for comments made by Donald Trump about the president's birth certificate, as the presumptive GOP presidential nominee raises money today in Las Vegas with the real estate developer.
So the optics of Romney getting off his campaign plane with Trump's jet in the background probably aren't helpful.  http://content.usatoday.com/communities/onpolitics/post/2012/05/mitt-romney-donald-trump-birther-issue-/1#.UFa8qq48VXs

This picture clearly was not taken at McCarren International Airport in Las Vegas.  The police car is not a Metro police car, the police agency that protects McCarren and Las Vegas.  If it is a county/airport SUV, it is not the right color nor the numbers on the back of the SUV are wrong for the airport.
Is this Donald Trump's plane?  It's hard to say without seeing the entire airplane, but there are some minor differences from this picture and the picture shown on this web site: http://world-most-expensive.com/private-jets-owned-celebrities  The biggest difference is on the top of the plane with the antennas.  In this picture you see two little humps but on the other site, you only have one shark fin like antenna.
So, was this pictured doctored and used by Obama in a commercial?  Seems like it could be.

  1. It's not PhotoShop, Dan, unless there is a whole series of 'shopped shots. If you search for "Romney Trump Plane" in Google, you get a whole series of these: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=romney+trump+plane&btnK=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=YIhYUID4G6jkiwKqt4GoBA&biw=1464&bih=804&sei=Y4hYULGABOKWjAL624DABw
