Today on Fox News, Clinton supporter Stephanie Tubbs-Jones was on talking about the election with Shepard Smith. Asked about whether or not she thought NAFTA would be a negative point for Hillary, Tubbs-Jones had this to say:

Well, you now what, the camp, the Obama campaign is trying to put that noose on her neck. But the reality is that Senator Clinton does not wear, uh, NAFTA.

NAFTA is something that occurred during the presidency of her husband. She was the first lady, but she has been very clear about NAFTA.

Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters is also on this, and has a great post about it. Do you think for one second, that with the recent controversies about nooses, that if one white person had said this about a black person, the media would have given it a free pass? Not on your life! The hypocrisy is blinding.
