Show Me The Damn Photo!

Call me naive, but unless Osama bin Laden starts popping up on videos claiming he's not dead yet and that they got the wrong guy, I believe. But in this day and age when everybody wants proof of everything, seemingly only so they can point out how in this day and age everything can be faked, I guess all we're going to hear about is doubt until photos are actually released and then more insidious doubt once they are.

Fine, but I want to see some historical photos myself. A sampling:

• a photo of Rush Limbaugh looking humble
• a photo of Harry Reid looking well-fed
• a photo of Clarence Thomas talking from the bench
• a photo of Donald Trump getting out of the shower (from the shoulders up only, please)
• a photo of JFK and Marilyn sharing a cigarette
• a photo of Nixon looking suave
• a photo of Lee Harvey Oswald at the precise time the shots were fired
• a photo of Sarah Palin reading a newspaper
• a photo of Walt Whitman and Abe Lincoln exchanging waves on a street in D.C.
• a photo of Huck Finn ripping up his letter to Miss Watson
• a photo of Bob Dylan at Woody Guthrie's bedside
• a photo of a two-legged Captain Ahab
• a photo of Bruce Wayne tugging the mask over his face
• a photo of J.D. Salinger taking a photo of himself in a mirror
• a photo of Ernest Hemingway ducking a punch
• a photo of Ali not looking cool
