"They caught the mistake and fixed it - just as the Kaloogian campaign caught their mistake and fixed it."
Is the correct picture of Baghdad now posted on his website?
Or at the doctor's office. And they wonder why patients BPs are so high...
Thanks, but what I'm looking for is the original article which begins "Yesterday Newsweek magazine took after a conservative Republican candidate for Congress, Howard Kaloogian (website: http://www.kaloogianforcongress.com) because he mislabeled a photograph he took on a "support the troops" mission to Iraq." The article that has the screenshot of Newsweek with the error. The posted link for this thread attributes that article to the Kaloogian website, but I'm not finding it on there anywhere.
(Denny Crane: "I Don't Want To Socialize With A Pinko Liberal Democrat Commie. Say What You Like About Republicans. We Stick To Our Convictions. Even When We Know We're Dead Wrong.")
* In February 2006, Kaloogian's website falsely claimed the California Pro-Life Council endorsed Kaloogian, and the council forced the campaign to remove the "endorsement".[8]
* Another claim for endorsement by the conservative Center for Reclaiming America (active in the Terry Schiavo feeding tube petition drive) also proved false the organization stated they don't endorse candidates. [9]
* In March, campaign literature and Kaloogian's website suggested State Senator Tom McClintock endorsed Kaloogian with the two-year old quote "Howard Kaloogian has distinguished himself as one of the most principled, courageous and steadfast conservative leaders in California."[10] In a statement McClinctock stated "It has come to my attention that a campaign mailing on behalf of Howard Kaloogian includes a picture and quote from me that suggests that I have endorsed his candidacy for U. S. Congress. I have not."[11].
* State Senator Bill Morrow, who is running against Kaloogian, is also challenging an implied endorsement by him of Kaloogian on the same mailer and webpage.[12][13]
* Endorsements from social conservatives such as Dr. Dobson (who was appointed to the Commission on Pornography, 1985-86 during the Reagan administration) and Concerned Women of America(a religious womens political organization) are at odds with Kaloogians endorsement from Gabrielle Reilly who appears as a model on adult interent sites and is socially liberal.
