Ms. Power resigns, now Hillary, you FIRE your staffer who sent the pic to Drudge

[npincus]

Remember this?




Remember the Clinton campaign's non-denial denial? Why didn't Hillary find out who in her campaign sent this photo and FIRE that person? And, why didn't Obama have a tantrum (like the one Hillary is having now) and demand that the source inside her campaign be found and FIRED?

why is the media hopping on Obama but gave the Hillary campaign a pass?

Advice to Obama: tell Hillary Ms. Power goes when she finds and fires the person responsible for sending Obama-in-tribal-dress pics to the Drudger Report. In that case, Ms. Power's job is very safe.

1. she needs to fire Mark Penn, Wolfson, and a handful of others too

[Yavapai]

20. She needs to fire herself!!!

[dchill]

31. OK, you win!

That's exactly correct.
;)

[dchill]

30. Especially Wolfson...

who compared Obama to Ken Starr - another monster!

[joeybee12]

2. Um, not proven...try again...strike one.

[dchill]

14. Also not proven...

that Hillary is NOT a monster.

[Hoof Hearted]

18. Lame. Like, argument of a child lame.

This applies to both yourself, and the OP.

[dchill]

23. Thanks. I'll try to do better next time.

:)

[Binka]

28. "Lame. Like, argument of a child lame." NOW THAT WAS FUCKING LAME

She must have stupid kids. My children are brilliant at arguing.

[dchill]

29. Right. It sounds just like...

"Nya, nya, nya-nya, nya!"
:hi:

[npincus]

3. Hypocrisy rules the day in the Hillary campaign.

[wndycty]

4. I expect Drudge might reveal his source. . . .

LOL

[MonkeyFunk]

5. The pic was out on the internet

long before Drudge got it. And not even Drudge claims a Clinton staffer sent it to him.

[npincus]

11. Drudge DID "claim" the pic was sent by HRC campaign (read caption)

and Drudge didn't just "get" it... it was sent by a Hillary staffer with a note saying that if Hillary had a similar photo, the media would have made a big stink (paraphrasing).

Why do Hillary supporters have so much trouble accepting the truth about their candidate's campaign?

[MonkeyFunk]

24. No he didn't say

a Clinton staffer sent it to him.

[Rageneau]

26. Drudge never said the pic was sent to him by a Clinton staffer.

What he said was that the Drudge Report "obtained" a copy of the photo attached to a note (probably an e-mail) from one Clinton staffer to another saying (to the effect), "What would the MSM do if Hillary had been seen in an outfit like this? (Note that the photo was old by this time, but the press had ignored it.)

By saying he "obtained" the note and photo from Clinton staffers, Drudge could make it APPEAR (to easily manipulated minds) that the photo had been intentionally SENT to him from the HRC campaign. But Drudge never, ever, not one single time claimed that to be the case.

Most likely, somebody who got copied on that e-mail sent the photo and mail to Drudge, who (because he could then claim it came 'from' the Clinton campaign, ran it in order to damage both Hillary AND Obama.

[Hieronymus]

32. Wow, that's a convoluted denial.

[Catchawave]

6. Was this proven ? n/t

[Tom Rinaldo]

12. No, it was not

And Obama already accepted Clinton's word that she knew nothing about it and had nothing to do with it. A Mydd Diary researched the history of that photo. There were hundreds of posts about it at Free Republic days before Drudge came out with it (after the photo had already been published in a national newspaper weeks earlier). Some of those Free Republic posts specifically said things like "Has Rush Limbaugh seen this yet?" And "We've got to get this to Drudge and Hannity and Rush".

[Catchawave]

19. Thanks Tom :)

Always nice to run into you :hi:

I hate to see Drudge even mentioned on DU, especially after putting Prince Harry and his band of brothers at risk. At least there wasn't a link to drive more traffic to him.

[redstate_democrat]

7. Im waiting for Wolfson and Penn to resign

then after that the rest of her staff can go to. They are probably the most inept and unprofessional bozos to ever run a "campaign".

[seabeyond]

8. they have a thread on PROUD OF DIRTY POLITICS. only self interest for them

when at all cost and fuck all others. this is what they want in the whitehouse. we had 8 years of them..... i have had enough of "them"

[skooooo]

9. bad npincus!! Hillary doesn't have to follow any rules!

She is above anything like that - things like Math, acting like a democrat, etc.
:eyes:

[babylonsister]

10. Nah, all they will do is deny it when they probably orchestrated it. nt

[oasis]

13. There's no proof that this was a photoshop job. Obama actually posed for the pic.

So damn what?

[barack the house]

15. I just get my news from the forum. Just googled she resigned for syaing that. She needs an award.

[WolverineDG]

16. And publically remove State Rep. Richard Raymond

from your campaign while rejecting & denouncing his racist comments in El Manana last week.

[CyberPieHole]

17. The picture that was published in "The National Examiner" weeks before?

The picture that was circulating for months on the internet? The one Obama posed for and knew existed? That picture?:evilgrin:

[democrattotheend]

21. What about the staffer who compared him to Kenneth Starr?

[elixir]

22. Hmmm, her staffer didn't send it to Drudge.

[robbedvoter]

25. Not even Drudge said he got it from a staffer "staffer circulated a pic"

But then again, Drudge is so revered now on DU, we go even beyond what he says to trash...

[Emillereid]

27. Hillary should fire herself for her traitorous remarks re: McCain.

[Yossariant]

33. Fire the idiot who posed for the picture.

GO-Bama.

Your 15 are up.

[Beacool]

34. Still with this nonsense?

The picture first appeared on the Feb. 4th issue of the National Examiner and was promptly sent around the RW blogs. I personally saw it on one of these blogs. It is obvious that some trouble maker sent it to Drudge to stir up the pot. Hillary herself and the campaign have said that they don't know of anyone who sent it.

Now, I would trust Hillary and Obama's words over Drudge any day of the week.

It's sad to see that it's not the case for some of you.......
