Users are being pinged for commenting in @Oh_Well_ian's Obama picture debunking (or being pinged by OWi). Please see OP - it is information you should probably be aware of.

Oh, I am well aware. At this point I have decided I have had enough of this. This seems to be turning into a slamming of OWI instead of finding the truth about the picture. I am wondering if this picture is being pushed to discredit us, if it IS shopped and we decide it is real. This is turning into a Witch Hunt and I don't want to be a part of it. Before this becomes a Hair On Fire situation it needs to be Doused.

That's exactly what it is. Did you read Part 2? If not, you should. At least the edit at the end.

I didn't post this to prove the picture one way or the other, I posted this to show OWi to be lying, at the very least.

A witch hunt? Read my words and come to your conclusion. I'm not hunting anything but lies and deceptions. I STILL can't comment on the image, but I CAN ask OWi to prove he's not lying by walking us through how he finds out if something is shopped or not.

His posts were textbook COINTEL. If you want to ignore this kind of thing, that's fine, but disinfo shills exist, and ignoring them isn't doing anyone any favors.

I am not going to be branded as someone that is OK with shills. Each post has been about OWI and not just the photo. I am no longer in this am in the middle of researching.

Yes. OWi. Who is likely a disinfo shill that your fellow users are likely to accept as legitimate if users like you don't call him out.

On only one subject I was able to show him completely and utterly wrong at every level, and since this is the first time I can recall that I've even paid attention to him as a user, that's really saying something.

Since you seem intent on pretending not to care, I'll tell you what it's saying:

It's saying that he likely does this far more often, on many other subjects.

Then don't act like it. Part of research is ruthlessly cutting off leads and information that is bad or false, and those that provide it.
