Clinton Volunteer Quits Over Obama Email
Hillary should step down—bottom line. I do not support Obama for President, but if you are against him please base it on the issues, not his name.
NPR-Iowa county coordinator for Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign has resigned after forwarding a chain e-mail that suggests Barack Obama is a Muslim who wants to destroy the United States by being elected to its highest office.
Obama is a member of the United Church of Christ and has never been a Muslim.
A hoax e-mail that has been widely circulated suggests Obama is some sort of Manchurian candidate for Muslims.
Judy Rose, a Clinton coordinator and Democratic Party official in Jones County, Iowa, forwarded it without comment to eight people on Nov. 21. Rose referred requests for comment to one of the recipients, Grace Zimmerman, who serves with her on the Jones County Democratic Central Committee.
Step down!?!?! Are you joking?
“There is no place in our campaign, or any campaign, for this kind of politics. A volunteer county coordinator made the mistake of forwarding an outrageous and offensive chain e-mail. This was wholly unauthorized and we were totally unaware of it. Let me be clear: No one should be engaging in this. We are asking this volunteer county coordinator to step down and are making it clear to every person involved in our campaign that this will not be tolerated,” – Clinton web master Peter Daou.
Again it becomes clearer each day that dems are imploding…the fun has just begun.
Also, reportedly Barack was a Muslim as a kid but switched later on when he was able to choose. He should face at least the same scrutiny as Mitt does on the GOP side for being a Mormon.
bb,
You’re pretty ignorant, aren’t you?
Ever met an actual Muslim?
How about someone who switched religions, either into or out of Islam?
.
Let’s cut to the chase: if there were proof that Barack Obama was Muslim, would it make a difference?
Bigot or not a bigot: time to put up or shut up.

That was a racist statement you know better! BTW I do not support Romney but I have no problem with him being a Mormon. If you are against him or Obama please make it about the issues not his religion or Obama’s name!
bb,
You’re kidding right? The party that hid the NIE from the public? This is the kind of stuff that happens in every primary.Was your post on Huckabee evidence that the GOP is imploding? That’s what you’re saying. Anyway, the fact that the GOP is bad in shape has to do with the public dislike of them.
And you said that the Republicans don’t have a religious litmus test? Your post just proves my point. We aren’t electing the head of Christianity.
bb,
Obama was never a Muslim and that’s a lie that the GOP put out there. He went to a muslim school when in Indonesia because that’s pretty much all there was there. If you go to a parochial school does that make you a catholic? That’s the kind of abject ignorance that has turned people off to the GOP.
Do you all not understand the word “reportedly” that was at the beginning as a disclaimer…damn people. And there is nothing racist about it John…do you even know the definition of the word?
If Mitt Romney is going to be scrutinized for his religion, then everybody should face the same. I personally could care less about the religion thing as long as the candidate does not attempt to shove his/her religious based ideals down our throats.
I don’t like Obama because he is a flaming liberal with zero experience for the job of president (he doesn’t even qualify on experience for his current position along with about half of the rest of those morons operating in the Capitol Building). It has nothing to do with whether he is Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Atheist, whatever. His problem is he wants to raise taxes, surrender to terrorists and bankrupt America…thus I disagree with him.
caroline,
Yet again your ignorant bias overrides whatever occupies the space between your ears.
Hillary Clinton, not the GOP is the culprit who brought up the Muslim thing about Obama.

Article Headline — Hillary’s team has questions about Obama’s Muslim background
bb,
You’re quoting a conspiracy theory site? RFLMAO! I got a an email about this stuff from a Republican a month ago. It came from the RNC.
A staffer for Clinton received the email from someone and forwarded it. The staffer was fired. End of story. Of course, conservatives never have their stories right. Read the Washington post. They had a whole article on how the GOP made this crap us about a week ago.
Bart
You but that comment in, so you could smear the guy based on his name.
At the end I hope you are judging Obama on issues not his name.
As I said I do not support Obama but it is not based on his name.
John,
You are even less qualified at reading mines as you are at being a conservative.
I put the statement in to generate conversation. It worked. People like caroline expose themselves as partisan hacks with no clue about reality. LMAO!
should have been ‘minds’ — a terrible thing to waste, especially when blogging.
Bart
Why did you post the rumor?
John,
Read post 12.
bb is reportedly a child rapist.
bb is reportedly a murderer
bb is reportedly a nice guy
Did you notice I said “reportedly” ?
See, if I say it that way, it isn’t lying through my teeth.
And DOR reportedly has a clue…
bb
reportedly had a white Bronco and once lived in CA near OJ’s before MJ gave him the name of a good skin doctor a few years ago and should face a DNA test

Now that we have the ‘reportedly’ posts out of the way, let’s see if Bart can pass his own litmus test.
“Also, reportedly Barack was a Muslim as a kid but switched later on when he was able to choose. He should face at least the same scrutiny as Mitt does on the GOP side for being a Mormon.”
OPS! Racism and lies exposed.
The meaning is very clear.
Bart believes the reports. Those reports are the justification for ’same scrutiny’ as openly Mormon Mitt.
You little duck faced lying racist.
And, that’s not a reportedly.
