A photo showing Barack Obama dressed in Somali garb is being circulated by campaign staffers working for Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, according to DrudgeReport.com.

FOX News is working to confirm the report.

The photo was taken in 2006 during a trip through Africa. Obama was dressed as a Somali elder during a visit to southwestern Kenya, said the Drudge Report, which said a Clinton staff member had provided the photo to the Web site.

I am posting FACTS. If you can counter them, feel free to do so.

But to claim I am an Obama supporter for doing so, only looks like you have nothing to offer in terms of a contrapuntal argument.

I see alot of people with a whole bunch of accusations here, but never any links!!!!

I am not buying into anything merely because someone here says so.

They would not have been fired if it was not tacitly understood by all that this was a lie. I mean, why fire anyone over truthful emails?

Is there any proof that Hillary circulated the picture?

(honest question)

I believe she would do anything...anything to derail Obama.

I dislike Hillary more than I dislike Obama, but I think I fear him more.

And most of the posts are just saying that the picture does not look good; that it just emphasis a latent fear that people already have about Obama ... that he is just a little too Muslim for our tastes, especially now.

Yes there is a proof. Drudge said that the picture was sent to him by Hillary Clinton campaign.

The WOT is my #1 issue, and I can honestly say I fear Hillary more than Obama.

And it is not even close.

Not by a mile.

The Evangelical Alliance of Kenya has posted on its website a photograph copy of a Memorandum of Understanding, dated and signed on August 29, 2007, between Raila Odinga and Shiekh Abdullah Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum of Kenya.

It pledges the support of Kenyan Moslems for Raila’s election. In return, as President of Kenya, Raila agrees to 14 actions, listed a) through n) on page two. Read them all, and be sure you’re sitting down. Here’s a sample:

b) Within 6 months re-write the Constitution of Kenya to recognize Shariah as the only true law sanctioned by the Holy Quran for Muslim declared regions.

c) With immediate effect dismiss the Commissioner of Police who has allowed himself to be used by heathens and Zionists to oppress the Kenyan Muslim community.

g) Within one year facilitate the establishment of a Shariah court in every Kenyan divisional headquarters. [Note: everywhere in Kenya, not just in “Muslim declared regions.”]

Again, read all of them, for others are just as bad or worse.

It may also not surprise you that Raila is not Moslem himself, but claims to be a practicing Anglican. Only a minority of Luo are Moslem (most are Christian). Kenya on the whole is Christian, with 80% of Kenyans either Protestant or Roman Catholic, while only 10% are Moslem.

And here is the biggest non-surprise: Raila Odinga has, in his own words, a “close personal friendship” with Barrack Hussein Obama Junior.

When Obama went to Kenya in August of 2006, he was hosted by Raila and spoke in praise of him at rallies in Nairobi:

Obama’s bias for his fellow Luo was so blatant that a Kenya government spokesman denounced Obama during his visit as Raila’s “stooge.”

Just the hint of sleeping with the enemy is enough for me. We are at War and cannot afford to have enemy compassion.

This why I will vote for John McCain with his many flaws and they are many. I will never vote for or assist Obama with a third party vote or by staying home. Obama is not presidential material now or ever. The facts are staring us in the face and some ignore them.

Obama will not put his hand over his heart during the national anthem to show he pledges allegiance to our flag, he will not wear a U.S. flag pin on his lapel, he met with known terrorists in the mid 90's, he is against the WOT as it is being fought, his wife has stated she only recently is proud of her country, he has a shady background as being a Muslim and now this photo. There is a PATTERN.

al Qaeda and Osama are praying for Barak HUSSEIN Obama to be our next POTUS. I will not assist this. I will vote for McCain.

How do you know Obama is not a muslim? Because he says so? We know that politicians never lie for personal gain, and we also know that muslims never lie, no?

Re: How do you know Obama is not a muslim?

Because nothing I have seen thus far says he is. If you have evidence, by all means present it.

Clinton staff fired for Obama email

Good morning, Ms. Rose. Your mission, Judy, should you decide to accept it, is to release an email claiming Barak Obama is a Muslim. As always, should you be caught or killed, the candidate will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This tape will self destruct in five seconds.

Why won’t Obama put his hand over his heart to pledge allegience to our flag during the national anthem? Why will he not wear a U.S. flag pin on his lapel? There is a pattern about Obama that he most likely is a Muslim and his patriotism to this country should be questioned.

Something tells me Barak Hussein Obama isn't coming clean about where his faith lies.

That's exactly right. IMO he is an radical islamo sympathizer. I've got no use for bubba and butch but I believe this dude osamo islamo obamo and his hate white America wife would be the worst thing that could happen to our country.
