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."

I don't. He's clearly unfit. However, he might just win, especially if enough of us decide to sit out the election to teach McCain or the GOP a lesson.
I got it from Drudge. If you click on the article showing the picture of Obama in African dress you see this picture of Hillary Clinton wearing the muslim headdress.

Anyone have photos of Paul O’Neill with Bono? ‘Nuff said.
“I am as much an American as you or anyone else here and I have lots of family that are citizens of another country. I spent summers abroad and I speak two languages but my loyalties are here. I resent this type of crap .”
I also have in-laws that are in another country and my wife is naturalized. You’re not running for President so there is a difference. Its pure crap for you to be offended. People with interests in other countries need to be acknowledged. Perhaps those interests are in line with America’s best interests but in many cases they will result in a conflict of interest. Thats bad when its an American company and far far worse when its the person responsible for America’s national security.
Do you recite the pledge? Do you respect the flag? If so then you are far better than B. Hussein Obama.

Interesting take on it
One week.
And here I thought this was just a preview...I think this is the main event! Pass the popcorn please! Got any chocolate covered raisins?
I'm beginning to think that the only way Hillary will win is by going the Andrew Jackson route - beating Obama in a duel at the convention.
The news here in Ohio is that Hillary had a rally at Wayne High School's gym. I guess the seating was a couple thousand. Obama is coming in today for a rally at Wright State University's Nutter Center with 12,000 seats. The news on the radio was warning people to come early or they won't get in even if they have a reservation. Hillary is toast.
That’s the one Obama staffers should circulate...along with a picture of her with Johnny Chung and Norman Hsu.
I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.

OK, we are told by several “experts” that this is traditional dress for a Kenya tribal leader.
What concerns me is the headgear. It sure looks like a Muslim turban to me. The old man who is dressing him is wearing what looks to me like a nondenominational hat, but Obama sure looks like a Muslim with that turban on his head.
What I would like to see is a real investigation into this whole business. Is Obama’s cousin Odinga a Muslim, or was he just cooperating with Muslims, which is bad enough?
Is Obama’s tribe Muslim? Or part Muslim?
The ruling tribe in Kenya is Christian, but there are Muslims in that country, and they have been moving in on the government in their usual way. Obama seems to be connected with that.
In any case, what about that headgear? Would a Christian Kenyan wear anything like that? Somehow I doubt it.
Scorched. Earth.
