Altering history

Dear Editor:

On Jan. 4, 2013, AP released news that House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi edited (PhotoShopped) the photo of the swearing in of the Democratic congresswomen. Only 57 of the 61 women showed up for the scheduled photo.

Her aides digitally altered the official photo to show images of the four absent members in the photograph.

#1: Does this show the lack of responsibility of our elected officials to be at the appointed place at the appointed time for a scheduled event?

Second: Is this another example of our elected leaders "altering" history so as to show their agendas?
