As everyone now knows, there's a picture of Barack Obama circulating showing him wearing traditional Kenyan dress, and the right wing punditocracy is having a field day with it.

Because as everyone knows, no conservative would ever engage in such bizarre activity.

Right?

Must be a that -other- right wing I keep hearing about. The ones I've heard so far are basically saying "So what?" about the picture.

In fact they are spending most of their time trying to blame Hillary for attempting to stir the pot with the picture.

Nope, never heard of it.
I'll ad mit that I do tend to lean to the right, but not so far that I need a crutch for support.

I think John Stewart said it best: "President Bush is gay for oil."

Except, she isn't. Her legislative scores from the ACLU, NEA, and NOW are identical to Obama's. In some of the metrics - ADA, SEIU - Obama is the less liberal/more conservative of the two.

Sites like RS and Kos are fun to read, but they're so heavily partisan/one-sided that I wouldn't rely on them for anything more than entertainment value.

Welcome to the random fireworks, some bright, some fizzling, of my brain.

Its a tradition at apec for the last night to have all the leaders dress
up in "traditional" dress of the host nation.
