Kaloogian Defended Bogus Iraq PhotoIt now appears California GOP Congressional hopeful Howard Kaloogian was for his misidentified “Iraq” photo before he was against it. (Google cache of photo here — it’s third from top)
In a post on the Democratic Underground web site, “KBlagburn” wrote yesterday of a conversation he had with Kaloogian in which he tried to bring the error to the candidate’s attention. Kaloogian stood by the photo and caption, according to KBlagburn.
Kaloogian’s campaign did not confirm the conversation but said it was possible. “If that’s the case, it’s because [Kaloogian] didn’t have the correct information,” campaign volunteer David Krive told me.
Krive said he first heard Kaloogian admit the error this morning, in a phone conversation with a newspaper reporter.
