Want a smoking gun in the latest dust up between Obama and Clinton? Well look at the reaction of the Clinton campaign about the photo being circulated by Clinton staffers that has the Obama people upset.
The picture taken during a state visit by Obama in 2006 shows him in traditional Kenyan garb including a turban. Why be upset? Well for a lot of folks who are not very intellectually curious, turban = terrorist. That’s the kind of reaction an opponent would want.
So what is the Hillary camp response? Well her campaign manager says, "Enough…. If Barack Obama's campaign wants to suggest that a photo of him wearing traditional Somali clothing is divisive, they should be ashamed.” Surprising that there was no denial that they had anything to do with the picture, instead they try to turn the issue back against Obama.
In December, two Clinton Iowa volunteers resigned after forwarding a hoax e-mail that falsely said Obama is a Muslim possibly intent on destroying the United States. Obama is a member of the United Church of Christ and says he has never been a Muslim, but false rumors about Islamic ties are circulating on the Internet.
Doesn’t sound very far -fetched that this is yet another scheme by the Hillary camp to win at any cost. That is not the kind of President this country needs!
