Hillary Clinton denied leaking the photo of Barack Obama wearing a turban, but her campaign manager says that even if she had, it would be no big deal. "Hillary Clinton has worn the traditional clothing of countries she has visited and had those photos published widely."
Sure she did. And George W. Bush put on a fetching Chamato poncho in Santiago, while Paul Wolfowitz burned up YouTube with his antimalarial African dance routines when he was World Bank prez. The obvious difference is this: when white politicians go ethnic, they just look funny. When a black presidential contender does it, he looks foreign. And when the ethnic apparel in question is vaguely reminiscent of the clothing worn by Iraqi and Afghan fighters (at least to many Fox viewers, who think any headdress other than a baseball cap is a declaration of war on America), the image is downright frightening.
The potato sack is what, Ireland?
I'm not a Fox viewer, but I think I've been insulted anyway.
Can’t say I disagree with that analysis. No one honest with themselves could. I don’t agree with taking a shot at Foxviewers, but Nation can’t help itself.
His middle name and his Somali Elder picture is enough to scare many conservatives in Hillary’s arms.
Bite me, you leftist bunt. You people are absolutely sickening.
You tell ‘em caliph Hussein Obama, stand up and be proud to be a Muslim! Don’t back down brother! Keep tellin’ it like it is. A man’s gotta have a code!
What a hypocrite, they, perhaps she put this crap out in the first place like the bigots they are then the only way to missinterpret the image is if you watch Fox.
This womyn’s nose is so high in the air, she drowns in the shower.
Not at all. We aren't afraid of yarmulkes... unlike some certain people.
But I admit, I don't like turbans. Whenever see see one I imagine a lit fuse sticking out the top.
