This is going to be a short diary. I would have just posted it as a comment, but I couldn't find anywhere to put it.
There is an dairy up at Red State Obama throws tantrum over GOP border bill that has this picture of an angry Obama pointing his finger.
Nothing get past the Redstate denizens.

He really is out of touch. Why is he wearing his wedding ring on the wrong hand? Or is it a special coded signal to Senate RINOs that he is on their side but just saying the opposite?

The inscription on that ring reads "Ali is Great!" Unbelievable.

Heh...you made me curious enough to google photos of his hands. I was fully prepared to see it on the wrong hand in every one, but no - it was on the left where it belongs. Except in a couple where it was nowhere to be found. I bet he has a squishy handshake, his hands are too effeminate, some of the least masculine hands I've ever seen. Ick!!!
First, johncharles gets the urban legend wrong. The Ring is suppose to say 'There is no God but Allah,' not 'All is Great.'
Here is an image they proves Obama is a secret Muslim.
Snoops is not convinced, and offer this picture of Obama's wedding ring where it is clear that it is just an abstract design with no discernible meaning in Arabic.

But back to why Obama is wearing his wedding ring on his right hand. There most be some meaning to this. Being the very observant one, I also noticed that he is also wearing his watch on his right wrist. He found a rare American Flag pin with a reversed star field that he wears on his right lapel. He dyed his hair which is much grayer in other recent pictures. And really troubling, he apparently had the mole that was on the left side of his nose surgically moved to the right side!
I suppose it could be possible that the picture has been flipped, and is from a much earlier time. The earliest usage of the unflipped picture I can find is from July 17 2009, but the caption for the same picture from Nov 2, 2011 suggests the picture is from the 2008 campaign.
The flipped picture appears as early as 2009 where it was flipped so that Obama would be pointing at Lebron James, but that seems unrelated to the Right Wing usage of the flipped picture. In 2013 the picture starts appearing all over Conservative sites, with one of the earliest from Michele Milken. It seems to be used to show an angry threatening Obama. There may be some psychological reason for flipping the photo, but I think the proliferation of it on Right Wing sites has more to do with Conservatives simply sealing their pictures from other Right Wing sites.
Anyway, I just thought it was funny that the brainiacs at RedState never thought to consider that is was simply a flipped photo from several years earlier. They would rather believe in some dark sinister meaning. OOOOO!
