Now here is a true patriot wearing his lapel pin....



All joking aside, this patriot argument against Barack Obama is absolutely insane. Almost more insane than my mom telling me he is a Muslim and how he didn't hold is hand over his heart during the pledge of allegiance.

Did your mom reference the picture of him in traditional Kenyan garb while visiting the country of his father's origin?

Has anyone seen the video of Stephanie Tubbs-Jones referencing Obama's "native dress"?

When this is all over, the reporters that have been following the 'inside story' of the HRC campaign will publish answers to the following questions:

1. Are Clinton surrogates being told to bring up race issues in subtle ways?
2. Were disparate odd attacks on Obama truly disparate or coordinated?
3. If she wins, this will be a fantastic comeback story (even though mathematically, it's not that big of a comeback.) If she loses, it will be a huge "How did she lose this thing? Why can't the Dem establishment play this game?"

I definitely think that the Clinton camp is in up to their elbows trying to link Obama to non-Christian interests.

A thing was going around on some social networking sites a week before the South Carolina democratic primary that told of how Obama would want to be sworn in using the Koran instead of the Bible and all this and that. I would not be surprised at all to find that a Clinton or a Clinton staffer had their hand in that particular timely release.

Especially if you think about the backlash that Edwards suffered after a couple of his staffers were writing strongly anti-Catholic rhetoric in blogs. There was a bit of a story nationally, but around here (for obvious reasons) there was a lot more negativity surrounding the Edwards camp very early on thanks to these statements. Having Obama linked to being a)non-Christian and b)having ties to Islam (oh no!) can only help one candidate at this time, and she's desperate for any kind of victory.
