Warning: Misleading thread claiming the Clinton camp blamed Obama for hyping RFK story
Edited on Sun May-25-08 07:29 PM by BigBearJack
The Obama campaign is being blamed for doing such thing.

We all know Obama gave Hillary the benefit of the doubt.

The Obama campaign is not Obama.

The Obama campaign does not have two daughters. The Obama campaign cannot run for president.

Obama is Obama. His campaign is his campaign.

Here's the thread that debunks itself, because said thread quotes the Clinton camp blaming the Obama campaign, and not Obama himself.

EDIT -- there I go again, giving someone the benefit of the doubt. I'll never learn! I thought, from the thread I linked to, that it could be someone who was coming by due to Malloy's mention. Sigh.

In the original post. Make sure you scold the originator of the misleading thread for bringing misinformation to our respected DU.

16. Thanks for the link - now we can see what you're referring to.
And by the way, I don't need you to tell me who to scold. I speak for myself and make my own decisions.

That's the way we do it at OUR respected DU.

18. Not entirely true.
I am part of the Obama campaign.

I have two daughters.

I could have run for president, but because I am the only person who might vote for me, I decided to throw my support behind Obama.

I think that this clarification is important.

22. So because you quoted an article you are right?
Edited on Sun May-25-08 07:46 PM by BigBearJack
Show me a part of the article where Barack Obama is blamed, Mr. I-have-no-independent-thoughts.

It's like arguing that those articles that label Republicans as "Democrats" by mistake are accurate because "they are articles".

Ha.

20. Thread title is article title and article also posted makes clear what was said.
But thanks for clarifying what already can be read in the thread.
