I'm not sure of the validity of the text, but it fits the picture.

This is OUR President at a MOSQUE prayer session LAST WEEK AT THE WHITE HOUSE, on the site where the INAUGURATION is held every 4 years!

Well. It is in a Mosque.

Okay. Just going on what the text said about it being "at the [WH], on the site where the inauguration is held..."
He does enough goofy stuff without me using something that can be proven as not accurate.

I wouldn't go to a mosque and pray to their god. If I happened to be one, like say I was vacationing in Egypt...I would stand back and watch, respectfully..... I certainly wouldn't pray to ~~Satan~~ Allah...

Beyond that, this is a wonderful example of how one can misrepresent with what is an otherwise perfectly legitimate photo. Think about how many suggestive images we could have of each one of us if we did something as innocuous as go through all of our old family vacation photos and then carefully crop some of them so that we're left with an image that suggests something that didn't actually happen.

For a wonderful little essay - with full-colour illustrations! - making this point quite nicely, see this webpage: Anatomy of a Photograph (http://zombietime.com/sf_rally_september_24_2005/anatomy_of_a_photograph/), by the anonymous owner of the site zombietime.
