Back in the Gutter

UPDATE: And now Clinton issues the non-denial denial - Read more

So with the latest polls showing Clinton losing support in both Ohio and Texas, the Clinton campaign has done exactly.what.I.predicted. they would do. They have reached down to the sewer, grabbed a handful of race-tinged slime and are slinging it hoping it will stick anywhere, somewhere. According to the Drudge Report, the campaign is circulating this picture as “Obama Dressed.”

The Clintons hope that FEAR of Muslims will beat out HOPE for a future fueled by activated Americans. And in the tangled geo-political age we find ourselves in, the Clintons may be right. But maybe not. A friend of mine who voted for Obama in the Democratic primary mistakenly believed at the time that Obama was Muslim. This Jewish woman only realized that Obama was Christian about two weeks ago when I told her so during a conversation about politics. She voted for him all the same. I think many, many of us want a new and, yes Hillary, a more “unified” path to move forward.

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 front runner 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. Clinton Circulates photo of ‘dressed’ Obama, Drudge Report

Here are a few other pictures of politicians dressed in local garb:

    The act of a desperate woman’s campaign. How could we expect more of her when she’s in bed with a conniving, self-centered, narcissistic husband. He takes millions of dollars a year from the Arabs and Chinese. Who does she think she’s fooling? They are two of a kind.

    You know ChiChi, this is all very, very sad to me. I am past anger to real concern about November. The Clinton’s are engaged in a scorched earth policy. It’s who they are.

    The only logical solution… mass write in for Dick Cheney !
    Stopping underhanded lobbyists?- send ‘em huntin’ with Cheney !
    Rein in greedy corporate C.E.O.s’? - Huntin’ with Cheney !
    Face to face negotiations with foreign dictators? yep, huntin’ with Dick!

    He’s pale, stressed out, but has a new battery and is ready to go!

    on the subject of clothing (dry cleaned or otherwise)
    i would be remiss in my duties as… well, whatever the heck my duties are.. if i didn’t remind everyone to wish Monica Lewinski a happy birthday this week,
    she turns 34… and gosh! it seems like it was just yesterday when she was crawling around the oval office floor, playing with little toys and drooling all over everything…
