WASH TIMES Friday: Obama secretly tried to sway Iraqi government to ignore Bush deal on keeping troops in Iraq... Developing...
Logan Act violation?
bttt
Friday news dump? Or just found out?
October No-So Surprise?
bump
Maybe it’s something newer than a few months ago.
Shouldn’t Hussein be at least doing life in Leavenworth for his treason, if not blindfolded and given a cigarette before being stood up against the wall? The times, they are a changin, alright.
Wait a minute.......A while back we had the story that he was trying to keep the troops there longer and now we have a story that says he was trying to prevent them from staying longer? Which is it?
§ 953. Private correspondence with foreign governments.
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.

1 Stat. 613, January 30, 1799, codified at 18 U.S.C. § 953 (2004).
Could this indeed be OUR October surprise?
Bush deal work??> Oil down to $84 ppb and OPEC cutting back now> Hedges po’d now we pay both the gov and the elite.
Obama Camp Denies he tried to delay withdrawal agreement of troops from Iraq
Hussein Obama= Acorn,Voter Fraud, Domestic Terror,Pro-Terror foreign policy, anti business
Drudge sounds like he’s a week or two behind the story.
In 1984 Democratic presidential candidate Jesse Jackson met with Cuban president Fidel Castro and later described a ten-point agreement the two had reached. His negotiations with Castro may have violated the Logan Act, but Jackson was not prosecuted.
Better be good...
Odinga 7 fellow commies and mooselimbs don’t count if you are a black bastard abandoned child Marxist.
This isn’t new news though. It was discussed on Fox last month or so and didn’t go anywhere
I’m confused. Isn’t this the exact opposite of what was said a month ago?
Maybe the story last month was just the trailer to the real story!
The Logan Act isn’t worth the bandwidth that Adobe uses to read it.
Hey, welcome to Free Repubic and congratulations on your very first post!
Ted Kennedy fed the russians info in an attempt to hurt Carter during their primary race. Seems that treasonous acts are standard fare for democrats looking to get elected.
But, Barry has BELIEVED he was already president-in-waiting, which in his mind is the same as being president, since he beat the Beast for the nomination. So, in his feeble mind, he is president. I bet the @$$hole stands in front of the mirror at night and practices his swearing in, with MamaObama doing the Chief Justice bit.
Hopefully this story will gain some traction now.
ah, guys...you get the feeling that a “switch” got turned on after Palin’s debate? Seems that it’s open season on BHO. I don’t think Barry new what hit him and I’m not sure he take the pressure.
One thing on top of another.
yeah,,that was denialble,,maybe this story will have video or audio or something more substantial
>>One thing on top of another<<
Agreed, let’s hope that the general public starts to notice and wake up.
Has anyone ever been prosecuted for a violation of the Logan Act?
Jackson and Obama both black socialist Democrats...is there a pattern here??!!
If W had the huevos, he would have the DOJ get an indictment and that would be the end of it. Sure, some race riots will happen - but whatever happened to the Rule of Law?
The average voter has no clue and just doesn’t care.
I would say we have had quite a few October and September surprises.
First Pelosi is over in Iran when Bush requested she not go; now Obama is doing it.
This guy keeps digging the hole deeper and deeper.
This is TREASON, but the libs will just pass it off as a Washington Times story like they dismissed it a couple months ago.
Can we get people to stop thinking about their finances long enough to take this in.
I’m having a hard time not thinking about my finances.
Arrest the Terrorist Loving, Logan Act Violator immediately!
How repulsive can this Phantom who’s entire past has been erased yet become!
Hydrogen Sulfide smells a thousand times better than the stench from this single act of apparently Treasonous Behavior!
ORIGINAL ACCUSATION
[... according to Iraq’s Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, Senator Obama in June told visiting Iraqi officials that President Bush’s government was in a ‘”state of weakness and political confusion’” so the negotiations (for troop withdrawal) should be postponed until after the election...]

Someone needs to tell McCain.
I can already hear his concession speech.
"We ran an honorable campaign..."
This could be huge.
this was reported and squashed when he was over there....
This story is what ... two months old?
Old story that the media collectively ignored.
Been lurking for many years! Enjoying all of your posts!
Let it begin with you.
