This is my favorite line. "But reporting by CNN in Jakarta, Indonesia and Washington, D.C., shows the allegations that Obama attended a madrassa to be false. CNN dispatched Senior International Correspondent John Vause to Jakarta to investigate."

Love how they will dispatch folks all over the planet to try and clear the "Chosen One".

spokesman for Clinton, who is also weighing a White House bid, denied that the campaign was the source of the Obama claim.

He called the story "an obvious right-wing hit job."

The story may have it roots at a Kinko's in Abilene, Texas.

Boy I liked the picture next to the article, someone should post it to this tread.

He appears like a little lost boy with huge ears walking near the WH.

The story that he had studied at a wahhabi schol was out way before Hilary started it. I still am not sure CNN got this right , I would have to see the evidence. It isnt beyond CNN to lie.

This is great stuff, I knew the Democrats would not let me down after they took over.

Now the Clinton News Network is fighting against their old hero's.

Boy if she gets the nod they will have hel* to pay.

Liberals fighting liberals, the party of peace.

Now if Playboy could just get Nancy to pose.

Insight Magazine, which is owned by the same company as The Washington Times
I suppose this means CNN will be giving constant reminders that their new polling company is owned by a close personal friend of Senator Clinton.

I'm sure Mrs. C has proof to back up her allegations.
Then again maybe she was just hoping to plant the seed of doubt about Obama and take down Insight magazine at the same time.

Just more proof of my theory that St. Obama is the chosen presidential candidate for the Media Party.

CNN is trying to water down the story. Note this paragraph:

Obama lived in Indonesia as a child, from 1967 to 1971, with his mother and step-father and has acknowledged attending a Muslim school, but an aide said it was not a madrassa.

The CNN report goes on to quote a school official who basically says they aren't like those madrassas -- in Pakistan.

===

So, which shell is the peanut under now?

Obama is CNN's guy for 2008. I wonder how Hill is taking their obvious bias.

I have a hard time believing CNN debunked a myth. They're in the business of pimping for their media whore.

More from the article:

"Obama has noted in his books ...

that he spent two years in a Muslim school and another two years in a Catholic school while living in Indonesia from age 6 to 10."

The mud slinging begins....

Scenario: Hillary becomes Prez, with Obama as VP. Obama mysteriously dies in office of VP. Pelosi becomes VP. Could it happen?

The plot thickens...

Whether or not this story is false or not doesn't matter.

It could be true that Obamma Omamma is a closet racists (Jessie Jackson supports Obamma Omamma), smoked crack, shot "H" and did other stupid things.

Could it be that Obammas people released this information NOW to get his Muslim connection out of the way early.

Remember, that in the future of politics this will be an old story with no legs.

Whether false or not.
