CLINTON STAFFERS CIRCULATE 'DRESSED' OBAMA Mon Feb 25 2008 06:51:00 ET

With a week to go until the Texas and Ohio primaries, stressed Clinton staffers circulated a photo over the weekend of a "dressed" Barack Obama.

The photo, taken in 2006, shows the Democrat frontrunner fitted as a Somali Elder, during his visit to Wajir, a rural area in northeastern Kenya.

The senator was on a five-country tour of Africa.

"Wouldn't we be seeing this on the cover of every magazine if it were HRC?" questioned one campaign staffer, in an email obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.

In December, the campaign asked one of its volunteer county coordinators in Iowa to step down after the person forwarded an e-mail falsely stating that Barack Obama is a Muslim.

Obama campaign manager David Plouffe quickly accused the Clinton campaign Monday of 'shameful offensive fear-mongering' for circulating the snap.

Clinton campaign manager Maggie Williams responds: "If Barack Obama's campaign wants to suggest that a photo of him wearing traditional Somali clothing is divisive, they should be ashamed."

Silly - but if it dresses like a duck...

My question is: If Obama becomes our next president - how long will it take before reparations becomes the topic of discussion?

Obama's finest speeches do not excite. They do not inform. They don't even really inspire. They elevate. They enmesh you in a grander moment, as if history has stopped flowing passively by, and, just for an instant, contracted around you, made you aware of its presence, and your role in it. He is not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of word over flesh, over color, over despair.

“Wouldn’t we be seeing this on the cover of every magazine if it were HRC?”

No, silly. Not a few years ago when she was the darling of the MSM. Now that they’ve ‘biased’ against her, they may.

Now, if Mrs. Stalin were a Republican, then yes. In fact, she would not have won the NY Senate seat they would have trounced her so badly.

Sucks when The Man turns against you, doesn’t it.

That’s why we don’t like the MSM and why we fight against tyrannical thugs in black robes.

It would make sense of Republicans did it because we are the party of funny pictures ....Dukakis in a tank, Kerry in Orange makeup and in a funny paper outfit.

Its such a sour note because they weren’t trying to be funny. They are trying to kneecap this guy and being defensive and angry about it at the same time. But, don’t question their sense of humor..er...patriotism.

Given a choice between publishing an embarrassing picture of Obama and hanging a flaming tire full of gasoline around his neck you know there would be a debate about it.

A little too little, too late. This should have come out right after South Carolina.

Yawn.... reminds me of the 1920’s pictures of Herbert Hoover wearing an Indian chief’s feather headdress - the sort of rather silly things politicians do on the order of kissing babies....

Wasn’t there a picture of Hillary and Chelsea wearing headscarves when Bill was President? I think they were visiting an Islamic country. This is desperation, sheer desperation.
