It doesn't get big when I click on it.  I can't read it.  But, if you think it is pathetic then so do I.

I can't read it either but I think it says that Republicans have good ideas that will save this country.  I would then have to agree that the sign is pathetic.

Is it real?  Or is it PhotoShopped - is it really illegal immigrants, or a still from a protest about something else and the placard slogan has been changed by some idiot with too much time on their hands?

I'm inclined to believe it is PhotoShopped, but then I like to see the best in people and find it hard to believe anybody would stoop so low.

Yep, I'm naive.

Kind of an old thread:  http://coldsteelforums.com/m95498-print.aspx
Hey PK, you think this might have been photoshopped?

Newbie caretaker, so I may not know what I am talking about :)
Caretaker for my elderly father who has his first and current graft in March, 2010.
Previously in-center hemodialysis in national chain, now doing NxStage home dialysis training.
End of September 2010: after twelve days of training, we were asked to start dialyzing on our own at home, reluctantly, we agreed.
If you are on HD, did you know that Rapid fluid removal (UF = ultrafiltration) during dialysis is associated with cardiovascular morbidity?  http://ihatedialysis.com/forum/index.php?topic=20596
We follow a modified version: UF limit = (weight in kg)  *  10 ml/kg/hr * (130 - age)/100

How do you know you are getting sufficient hemodialysis?  Know your HDP!  Scribner, B. H. and D. G. Oreopoulos (2002). "The Hemodialysis Product (HDP): A Better Index of Dialysis Adequacy than Kt/V." Dialysis & Transplantation 31(1).   http://www.therenalnetwork.org/qi/resources/HDP.pdf

Greg,

Old to you new to me.  I have no idea what is or isnt photoshopped on the net.
Real or fake it is disturbing.  No need being a smartass with ref: to the other photo.

Hey paul,
I am going to try to post your original photo here.
No way to tell if those are legal or illegal immigrants
It looks like a bad editing job on the bottom to me but you be the judge.
But if you just read the top part, it's still awful.
I don't think it's real, at least I hope not.
Or it could be sarcasm from someone who IS legal.
No need to get mad, greg's photo is funny (but I happen to like blatantly photoshopped stuff.)

I did a little search and it seems that this has been photo shopped.
