Muslim Women in Headscarves Banned From Obama [spit] Photo Op
Two Muslim women were prohibited from sitting behind the podium at Barack Obama’s Monday rally in Detroit, apparently so their headscarves would not appear in photographs with him, according to a report Wednesday in the Politico.com.
The Washington-based Web site reported that Obama [spit] campaign volunteers said the women could not wear the hijabs behind the candidate, though they gave different reasons for the rule.
One volunteer said that one of the women could not be seen on TV with Obama [spit] “because of the political climate and what’s going on in the world and what’s going on with Muslim Americans,” according to the Muslim woman’s friend.
The other volunteer gave a less political explanation to the other woman, according to the article, claiming nobody with any kind of headpiece could sit behind the stage.
Don’t believe any politically correct explanations like this. Obama’s obviously a racist and a sexist. Politics as usual of course. Oh wait, he’s a Democrat? It was obviously all a big misunderstanding.

Gee, Obamamessiah is just another lying, hypocritical politician. So surprised (not).
Check out his recent double take on public funding -
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080619/ap_on_el_pr/obama_money
Seems as though Obama and McCain both agreed to accept public funding, and the spending limit that the funding imposes. Now, Obama is going back on his word (gee, so suprised that he is doing that, again).
Interesting quote:
Though it opens him to charges of hypocrisy, Obama’s fundraising decision was hardly a surprise, given his record in raising money from private sources. Some $85 million in public money is available to each major party nominee during the fall campaign if they agree to forgo other contributions.
McCain told reporters in Minnesota on Thursday, “We will take public financing.”
As for his opponent, he said Obama “said he would stick to his word. He didn’t.”
All this, and I don’t even like McCain…
