I think this more then anything else shows the desperation of the Clinton campaign.  They are grasping at straws that don't even exist now.

The source of the claim that the Clinton campaign circulated the photo of Barack Obama in Muslim garb is GOP hatchet man Matt Drudge. Drudge is not credible.

Pretty much.

Didn't Drudge break the Lewinsky thing after Newsweek spiked it? I guess that some people believe he's the VWRC like good little Clintonistas.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Can't prove the claim, so attack the messenger.   :whatever:

Who else would have released it?  It certainly wouldn't be a Republican as they would have waited until after he secured the nomination and right before the election to release this incredibly damaging photo. 

Barrack Hussein Obama will never be president.

By circulating the photo now while Hillary Clinton is still in the presidential race, the GOP can get away with attacking Barack Obama while blaming Clinton for the attack.

Drudge has proven time and again to be far more credible that any of the other news sites.
and you are wrong. the Clinton machine is the source of the photo.

For what purpose?   They would save it.   Definitely wasn't released by the GOP.   

Something for you to consider also is that Obama himself released it to make Hillary look bad and get it out there as it would be released anyway.

Now if you scroll down, there's picture of both the Klintons and the president wearing weird garb. Hillary didn't make Barack put on the clothes in the first place, Barack Hussein Obama is just crying like a little girl again over this.

Don't wanna have pics of yourself in Muslim clothes? Don't pose in Muslim clothes!
