WHILE campaigning in public for a speedy withdrawal of US troops from Iraq, Sen. Barack Obama has tried in private to persuade Iraqi leaders to delay an agreement on a draw-down of the American military presence.
According to Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari, Obama made his demand for delay a key theme of his discussions with Iraqi leaders in Baghdad in July.
"He asked why we were not prepared to delay an agreement until after the US elections and the formation of a new administration in Washington," Zebari said in an interview.
Obama insisted that Congress should be involved in negotiations on the status of US troops - and that it was in the interests of both sides not to have an agreement negotiated by the Bush administration in its "state of weakness and political confusion."

OBAMA DENIES—BLAMES IRAQI FOR MISUNDERSTANDING MESSIAH!
That must be a heck of a “nuanced foreign policy” if the guy you are talking with can’t understand you.

Knew this would go nowhere. Not even on Brit Hume’s show.Not a breaking story, not any story worthy of the first 20 minutes of the show. I shut it off so who knows, might appear later.

That’s clear, say “Out Now”, but then try to get credit “when” he is elected for the withdrawal. Looks like it is now, “if” elected.

Rush is on top of it. Talked about it during todays show. He absolutely vaporized Obama on the issue, and he made it clear that a violation of the Logan Act should be considered.

I see that...LOL. Thanks for the tip.
Of course, it has grown from 7:30 AM this morning to now. Looks like the Obama campaign has already had to issue a non-denial denial!!

Knew this would go nowhere.Yep--You have to realize what 'team' the MSM is playing for.
Imagine if McCain was cited in any newspaper for something that outrageous and sickening?
Heck, the MSM is too busy spending their time investing Gov. Palin's library policies--to be bothered investigating their hero's treason.

Obama sat down for dinner with Petraeus What could they possibly talk about and what language did they use, Martian?
If you will allow me, Senator 0, this is your piece and this is your gun.
