Candidate pictured not rendering “rock salute” during classic rock anthem
B&P News -
The presidential campaign of Illinois Senator Barack Obama suffered a setback this week, as yet another “smear” email attack landed in the inboxes of thousands of
B & P News obtained a version of the email, which purports to show Obama failing to render the “rock salute” during the playing of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s rock classic “Freebird” at a campaign event late last year.
“He’s definitely not throwing the goat,” said
The Obama campaign disagreed, saying the photograph is taken out of context, and that neither Senator Hillary Clinton or Senator John McCain have the classic rock credentials of Obama.

There's a YouTube video circulating now that shows Obama's former minister, Jeremiah Wright, scolding the (Bill) Clinton administration for its support of Fleetwood Mac's "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" when everybody knows Stevie Wonder's "Higher Ground" was rejected because it was performed by a black man. And don't even get him started on Hillary's choice of a Celine Dion song for her campaign.
hey his middle name is HUSSIEN what did you expect.
When cornered by a reporter from The State, Obama responded, "Just gimme three steps here. As a musician myself, I was so utterly awestruck by Gary Rossington's totally bitchin' solo that I momentarily failed to sling the metal."
"Now, McCain's folks are trying to smear me, calling me "The Breeze." But I ain't the one failing to address this nation's true needs. I know a little and I fully intend to give America back its bullets."
