I agree. If Obama worked for the CIA in Afghanistan and Pakistan he would have known the Farsi speaking translators from Iraq could not translate Phashto in Afghanistan during his dumb statement “the reason we don't have enough translators in Afghanistan is because they are busy in Iraq”. Here is a link to an article from the New York Times on Obama at Columbia and people who knew him-www.nytimes.com/2007/10/30/us/politics/30obama.html! This idea is way beyond any level of plausibility!
I think you are mistaken. IF BHO was a CIA operative, he would frequently INTENTIONALLY act very naive & ignorant, just like lots of freepers in this thread who seem to NOT understand that if someone is deep cover, then they will have an interesting back story, such as having marxist friends, or being room mates with Pakistan dope dealers, etc/etc/etc
If someone did NOT want people to think that he knew Farsi, would he have stated ANYTHING that you declare he must have known???????????
That's not rational.
