Picture: Hillary responds, Bill in native garb
Hillary herself responds to the Drudge claim that her campaign circulated a pic of Obama in native garb, saying she knows nothing about it:
"Every time I traveled to foreign countries, I wore the costume of the country. You can find dozen of pictures of me in different parts of the world. You can find me wearing African outfits, Latin American outfits, Asian outfits, when you travel to foreign countries, it’s a sign of respect. What does that have to do with anything?"
For the conspiratorially minded, in the wake of Sept. 11 and emails falsely claiming Obama is a Muslim, a picture showing him dressed in a turban might be more damaging than your normal native-garb shot. But in any event, on a day dominated by the Drudge story, it seems somehow fitting that we end with this photo, from a trip to Ghana, brought to our attention by a reader:

How strange, Hillary gets her smear and insult to the character of Obama, then says it wasn't me, see here I am in my foreign garb. Hillary actions relay to me a spoiled brat. disingenuous and self-aggrandizing. Who has no concern for another's character and will stop at nothing to get what she wants.
