Obama can’t deny it completely b/c of what he already said publicly in June — his own stance WAS/IS to delay Status of Forces Agreement until new administration and to extend UN mandate.
However, IF anything can be established to support Taheri’s report that Obama was exerting pressure on officials while in Iraq then that is the real, direct interference in ongoing negotiations..... though of course the MSM will try to ignore or minimize it. We need the FM or Petraeus or others to confirm something. Petraeus is in a bind b/c he has to stay out of the politics of it, but a spokesman could confirm or deny factual details, perhaps.
Who knows - maybe Taheri had a video or audio recording going on.
McCain’s first priority is national security. How often has he said—I’d rather lose an election than lose a war. If McCain knows that Little Barry on his trip to summer camp did something to undermine our war efforts and the security of our military, he will be sure this story is known to the American people.
