The picture is taken in Latvia in May 2005, where roughly 50% of the population is Russian speaking. Phonetically, "peace duke" = "peezduke" = motherfucker. The dork is happy thinking he's being praised. Priceless.

You could have come up with a much less esoteric joke if you were going to bother photoshoping it. 10/11/2005 2:04:24 PM |

The thing that makes me wonder is how perfectly lined up it is along the bottom of the picture.
It just doesnt seem quite right me. I might be wrong.

I agree. Photoshopped. Looking at the neck of the shirt it is obviously twisted, but the picture is perfectly straight with no wrinkles. 10/11/2005 2:33:44 PM |

It would be helpful in proving the photoshop allegations wrong if more than one image, or a reputable news source is found on the visit/photo. 10/11/2005 2:49:13 PM |

The photo is with Senator Snowe of Maine and was taken in Maine.
I can't believe you ever thought this would have been legit.

I never believed it. Its a well known and documented fact that Russians lack the necessary intelligence to operate a camera. 10/11/2005 3:16:04 PM |

I'll admit pwnt obviously. HEre's why I hought it might be legit. It is true that such posters and t shirts were manufactured, and it is true that people were let to the airport to meet Bush with these posters.

That was well publicized last May. I didn't know they faked the picture though. 10/11/2005 7:37:02 PM |
