According to the Daily Kos, someone in the Clinton campaign took Obama's image from <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjSEqh9zFTE">this video</a> and darkened (a la OJ Simpson <a href="http://blogcritics.org/archives/2005/08/31/012306.php">gracing the covers of <em>Time</em> and <em>Newsweek</em></a>) for <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4l4_jMyV3mY">this commercial</a>. According to the Kos:</p>

<blockquote>In case you needed yet another reason to despise Hillary Clinton and her vermin strategists, she's now running an ad blatantly lying about Obama's subcommittee.  Her ad includes debate footage heavily doctored to make Obama blacker.</blockquote>

<p>So to sum things up, politics is still a dirty game but you should act surprised with self-righteous indignation whenever this point rears its ugly head. Oh, and while we're busy with our in-fighting, McCain is just going to go ahead and steal the Oval Office if that's cool with you guys. Thanks.</p>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
