Vernon’s PhotoShop Faux Pas

Obama says Jones mailer is not an endorsement

”The Obama campaign was not involved with the use of Sen. Obama’s picture in this mailer,” spokeswoman Amy Brundage said. ”And despite what this mailer inaccurately suggests, Sen. Obama will not endorse a candidate in the U.S. Senate primary in Georgia.”

The flier blends photos of Obama and Jones to make it appear they were at the same event, when they were not. It lists a variety of issues, from job creation to home foreclosure, on which the two share an agenda. ”Like Barack Obama Vernon Jones Wants to …” the list begins.

Jones said his opponents are attacking him because they are worried about his strength in the July 15 primary. He said they have been proclaiming their support for Obama for weeks.

There should be some sort of fine imposed on candidates who just make stuff up, similar to fines imposed by the FTC for false advertising.

    Vernon has nothing in common with the Democratic Party and of course his positions line up with McCain, no Obama. Wtf – why would Vernon think we are all stupid enough to not see right thru him and see this for what it is, Racial pandering. Vernon is disgrace to our party and should be disqualified from this race, as the AJC stated.
