Osama Obama: Drudge Who?

At least that's what some people said is the implication of a photo of him in Somali native costume during a 2006 trip to Africa.
Supposedly spread by disgruntled Clinton campaign staffers according to Matt Drudge who runs a popular online news aggregator whose claim to fame is breaking the Lewinsky spotted dress story.
Staffers claim if there was a photo like that of Hillary, the press would be all over it but they tread lightly with Obama.
Drudge is often the source for nasty rumors that quickly make it to FOX News, then CNN, then everyone else and it has today and that's what happened today.
This is often how the news works, and I bet most of you never heard of Matt Drudge and avoid FOX like the plague.
Anyway, brighten up, Congress reconvenes tomorrow.
