- In recent days Hillary Clinton has been criticizing campaign mailers sent out by Barack Obama's campaign. She was even quoted as saying "Shame on you, Barack Obama".
- The following is a link to an image of the NAFTA mailer: http://www.ohiodailyblog.com/content/obama-mailer-slams-clinton-nafta
- As you can see, the mailer references a 2006 Newsday article that said "Clinton thinks NAFTA has been a boon the economy".
- Newsday has been quick to say that this was not a quote from Clinton that it was the paper's "characterization of how we best understood her position on NAFTA, based on a review of past stories and her public statements."
- The mailer then goes on to quote a segment of a UPI story saying that "She even touted NAFTA in her own book" referencing what looks like page 291 in Living History.
- Clinton's complaints of the mailer do not mention the reference to her own book.
