Obama-Biden Reservations Confirmed [The story about Obama negotiating with the Iraqis was true]
The American Spectator ^

Posted on 09/16/2008 9:57:54 PM PDT by flyfree

The Obama campaign spent more than five hours on Monday attempting to figure out the best refutation of the explosive New York Post report that quoted Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari as saying that Barack Obama during his July visit to Baghdad demanded that Iraq not negotiate with the Bush Administration on the withdrawal of American troops. Instead, he asked that they delay such negotiations until after the presidential handover at the end of January.

The three problems, according to campaign sources: The report was true, there were at least three other people in the room with Obama and Zebari to confirm the conversation, and there was concern that there were enough aggressive reporters based in Baghdad with the sources to confirm the conversation that to deny the comments would create a bigger problem.

We got us a LIVE one here my friends.... This NEEDS to be a HOT topic of the day along with McCain trying to reform Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac BEFORE it could just crenel the rest of the market. Well, now the crenelling has begun, and its about to get real bad.

Time for a DoJ special prosecutor to be appointed to investigate Hussein 0bama’s crimes. And Biden’s potential complicity, for that matter.

"He's working twice as hard on this, because the stakes and the rewards are so much higher."

That quote from the article from one of the staffers on Biden's debate prep really stuck out to me.

Send the Kenyan back to Illinois. Or better yet, a Federal penitentiary.

I expect the major news outlets to cover this story sometime on November 6th probably on the fifth page half way down in the classified section.

Calling a 4 star general and a member of a foreign nation ( of which we are guests in their country) a liar is not a good way to build rapport.

Obama- Hollywood Rockstar- is more arrogant than Clinton, Gore, Kerry , Edwards and Biden put together...and extremely dangerous!

God save America.
God bless America.

About the time Obama decides to craft his own Presidential seal, he's in Iraq attempting to undermine legitimate U.S. foreign policy! Absolutely, this needs to be a HOT topic.

I saw Dan Senior on “FOX and Friends” talking about this story several days ago. The hosts were asking if the Iraqi minister was a reliable source. Mr. Senior's reply, “Absolutely. He's a stand up guy.” I believe this story, too. Obama’s hubris was at its height, if you recall. He was, and IS, more than capable of “demanding” such a thing!
