Barack Obama's statement denying secret negotiations with the Iraqi government on the U.S. withdrawal from Iraq in fact confirms Amir Taheri's allegations that the Illinois Senator made an end run around U.S. officials on the disposition of American forces.
Obama's own statements reveal he indeed appealed to the Iraqi government for a delay in the withdrawal plans.
In the New York Post, conservative Iranian-born columnist Amir Taheri quoted Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari as saying the Democrat made the demand when he visited Baghdad in July, while publicly demanding an early withdrawal.
... Obama's national security spokeswoman Wendy Morigi said Taheri's article bore "as much resemblance to the truth as a McCain campign commercial."
... Obama had told the Iraqis that they should not rush through a "Strategic Framework Agreement" governing the future of U.S. forces until after President George W. Bush leaves office, she said.

She - and other Obama surrogates - are trying to shift the focus away from what Obama said to smearing Amir Taheri and John McCain.
Force this back on them. Draw The Iraqi Foreign Minister back into this. The Iraqi Foreign Minister needs to be asked again what Obama said to him. Then, Obama can be seen as potentially violating the Logan Act. Then an investigation can be begun on whether Obama acted illegally.
Dems started an investigation on Palin. Why not an investigation on Obama?
So, Obama’s national security spokeswoman confims that Obama had secret negotiations.
She, in the end - and in her own words - made herself and Obama out to be liars.
Secret Negotiations Gate?
Even bombard CNN and MSNBC - even if these two do nothing...
But at least this needs to be bombarded to foxnews...eventually they won't be able to bury this...
Also, for the last 2 days i haven’t heard anything from Howie Carr about this????? WhY....
There should be mass emails about this. Everyone should email someone they know about this. I will be emailing plenty of people about this.
E-mail Fox News, call talk radio hosts, put this on one end of the Web to the other and so on.
This is big.
Wow, an FBI and Congressional investigations should begin.
Out of Obama’s own mouth:
He said that the Iraqis should not rush through a Strategic Framework Agreement governing the future of US forces UNTIL AFTER President George W. Bush leaves office.
Also, Obama’s national security spokeswoman confirms Obama said this.
“Wow, an FBI and Congressional investigations should begin.”
Republicans don’t investigate things. Rather, they allow themselves to be endlessly investiaged by Democrats.
Yeah its big. Think what you are doing! Forcing the Democraps to take this Obama problem seriously, gives them the excuse to force him to step aside and let Hillary take over! You want to blow McCain/Palin chances, keep pushing this! I say arrest the little prick after he loses the election and try him for subversion and treason if need be. (Never happen, but I can dream!)
I smell a meltdown in the Obama campaign.......
Won’t happen.
Were he to be dumped now, there would be a revolt in the Democrat Party like never seen before.
The big wigs in the Dem party don’t want that.

We can hope but don't count on it. The MSM and political establishment of both parties will cover for him.
FOX will come out with this story so there is no need to email them. It is the rest of the MSM that will bury it. The story here is what a disgusting, narcissistic, Marxist, POS Obama is, was, and always will be.
Let's take a look at her other comments:
"'In fact, Obama had told the Iraqis that they should not rush through a "Strategic Framework Agreement" governing the future of US forces until after President George W. Bush leaves office,' she said."
Why wait? Ask Wendy:
"...Senator Obama is the only candidate who will safely and responsibly end the war in Iraq and refocus our attention on the real threat: a resurgent Al-Qaeda and Taliban along the Afghanistan/Pakistan border."
So, forget an earlier troop withdrawal; it's much more important that To Barry Be The Glory.....
Thanks for another truthful McCain campaign commercial, Wendy, this one from your own mouth. See you on t.v.
Can’t this Marxist Muslim be arrested for treason and sent to Guantanamo? That is what he deserves.
Code words for "carp, they nailed us!"
Wanna bet? They are bleeding in the polls, as well as dooming what was to be certain victory in all 3 races! They know they have a loser now that Palin has sucked all the Hillary women that the DNC took for granted away from them. The only way to stop th bleeding is to put a woman in the top position, and they will switch him out with Hillary if they think they can regain what Obama is bleeding. Plus Obama isn’t helping the Senate Democraps for fund raising, You are underestimating how evil these people are at your own peril! You scandelize Obama now and that give the DNC all the ammo and time they need to switch out their losing horse.
“But Obama’s national security spokeswoman Wendy Morigi said Taheri’s article bore ‘as much resemblance to the truth as a McCain campaign commercial.’”
YUP! I’d have to agree with her! In fact, I think her incriminating statement should BE the next McCain commercial, along with a reminder that Obama’s violation of the Logan Act is a felony, a treasonous, irresponsible act that could have cost many American lives, and disqualifies him running for the Presidency because the Constitution forbids a felon from holding that office. This is classic Obama behavior: consumately selfish and completely ignorant of how government works.
