Bullshit OP
BumRushDaShow
(129,092 posts)6. Anything cloaked in lies
is still lies. He got his point through when he equivocated the first time leading up to this and what will be more news cycles and attention for him...and his supporters will now blame the "libruulllll" media for forcing him to make a lie the truth because that is how they roll... And the media accepts it.

(129,092 posts)7. Believe it or not, the WAPO breaking banner said "falsely" too

Clinton aides claim Obama photo wasn't intended as a smear
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/feb/25/barackobama.hillaryclinton
Barack Obama's campaign team today accused Hillary Clinton's beleaguered staff of mounting a desperate dirty tricks operation by circulating a picture of him in African dress, feeding into false claims on US websites that he is a Muslim.
Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe, described it as "the most shameful, offensive fear-mongering we've seen from either party in this election". Obama has had to spend much of the campaign stressing he is a Christian not a Muslim and did not study at a madrassa.
