"He had no idea he was being lit from below. I guess they're not very sophisticated," says creepy photographer Jill Greenberg.

About the ghoulish light she cast on John McCain to take a cover shot for The Atlantic. The Atlantic didn't use the nastiest of the pictures, but:

[Greenberg's] Web site now features a series of Photoshopped pics of McCain in some highly unflattering poses - including one that has a monkey squirting dung onto the Republican candidate's head.

Another one reads "I am a bloodthirsty warmongerer," with McCain retouched to have needle-sharp shark teeth and a vicious grin, while licking blood-smeared lips.

Ugh. And part of my disgust relates to the fact that "warmongerer," like "mongerer," isn't a word. But it is funny that Greenberg broadcast -- she might say "broadcasted" -- that she's pretty dumb.
