Two Muslim women at Barack Obama's rally in Detroit on Monday were barred from sitting behind the podium by campaign volunteers seeking to prevent the women's headscarves from appearing in photographs or on television with the candidate.The campaign has apologized to the women, both Obama supporters who said they felt betrayed by their treatment at the rally.

Yeah, right: "The jury is instructed to disregard that statement."
