Obama dressed as a Muslim?

That’s what the Clinton camp seems to be implying. Wow! She is throwing everything against the wall to see if it’ll stick. She must be getting desperate. Too bad she can’t use the attack that the Republicans will be using in the fall: he is way too liberal to be president.
One thing that it tells us is that she doesn’t have any real dirt on the guy, if she did, she would probably use it and wouldn’t need to use something this silly.

One Final Word
My dear friend Michele slipped into eternity on Wednesday, February 1.   She was a remarkable woman who left a legacy of faith, determination, and love. For three years she courageously battled the ovarian cancer that eventually robbed her of her life.  A few days before she died, one of her docto

The rumors of my demise have been greatly exaggerated
My husband told me that there are rumors that I've died. I'm happy to report that I'm still very much alive. My cancer has gone to stage four but we are controlling it with chemo, the cancer numbers are currently in the normal range. I've stopped blogging to concentrate on my daughters and writing a

An update and a prayer request
Several people have asked about Michele's condition, and have promised to pray for her. On her behalf, I thank you for that. I spoke with her a little while ago, and she asked that I come here and tell you what's going on, and to ask you to pray for her. She isn't able to post here herself right

The peace that passes all understanding, pt. 1
I'm coming out of my normal hiding place to make a few comments. The internet is a strange place. It is often a wonderful place, a helpful place, a unifying place. But it is also alienating, cold, and is the perfect medium in which to depersonalize others. Through it, I have seen people reach out

So far he’s not reacting to this and that’s a good thing. Whereas she is in turns heaping praise, sarcastically dismissing him, and then shaking her finger at him for using “Karl Rove’s playbook.” This has Karl Rove’s fingerprints all over it. It makes me wonder…

Obama is doomed. This picture is the campaign killer in November. The Democrats won’t make anything of if for fear of being called racist. The Republicans won’t care and will have a field day.

Bingo! It’s the last gasp of a failing campaign.

Bring on the swift-boats, Charles. I can’t wait.

I’ve been removing my shoes during the gospel reading at church lately … that doesn’t make me a Muslim.
Is not the body more than clothing?

She has real dirt on Senator Obama, but she doesn’t consider it dirt: he’s a unreconstructed McGovern leftist.
This has Karl Rove’s fingerprints all over it.
yeah. That makes sense. The Clintons aren’t infamous for this kind of political dirty trick before anyone had even heard of Karl Rove or anything.

Yeah, it’s pretty funny that anyone would accuse Karl Rove of this one when it came straight from her campaign. Is he working for her now?
The Republicans don’t have to use silly things like this, we have his liberal record. That will be more than enough.

then why doesn’t the drudge report dismiss this crap?
because the right believes that they will get traction by pushing more “obama is an american killing muslim” b.s. like this.
by the way, “CLINTON STAFFERS CIRCULATE ‘DRESSED’ OBAMA”? which staffers? where’s the proof? didn’t the right JUST condemn the new york times for this same sort of baseless claim? at least the nyt did name some names.

You guys are so funny, you are the ones who put the picture out there and then you blame the right because we are laughing at you for doing it.
BTW, the Clinton camp isn’t denying it.

i put the picture out there? hahahahahahaha!
btw, without calling you a liar, i suggest you at least keep on top of the story and do some research because the clinton camp is indeed denying it.
however, that wasn’t my point. drudge knows 2 things. 1: this is meaningless crap yet they continue to peddle it, and 2: if drudge knows that it was a clinton staffer, why doesn’t the report name names? you’re a hypocrite to hold the nyt to some standard that you’re not willing to apply to right wing propaganda outlets.

1) There are plenty of avenues by which one may attack Obama. Liberalism is not one such avenue. Obama is not a liberal. He is Clintonian Centrist through and through. Only slightly to the right of his fellow centrists.
2) Karl Rove works for Fox News now.
3) Can we address how on Earth we consider this a scandal at all, as if even the implication that someone is a Muslim somehow indicates that person is a criminal?
Are we supposed to be making reparations with the Muslim community? Funny how this is the only context within which they seem to come up as topic during this election cycle…

anonymous reincarnate, I have not seen any denial by the Clinton camp. Links please (not to accuse you of lying :-)
John Brooks, no sorry, he’s a liberal and it will be my pleasure to demonstrate that fact over the next 8 months. BTW, I think that it should be laid to rest where Obama is concerned. I was happy that McCain repudiated it.

It does not matter if Obama has a rag on his head or Hillary has a pervert in her bedroom. The Dems are committing suicide with both of these morons. Not only will they loose this election, but they will loose the respect of their own party. 2008 will be the year that black America will wake up and join the Republican Party.
The only hope the dems will have in 2012 will be to cater to those who sprecken ze espanol.
