Obama adviser who met with Hamas resigns [ Oba"hamas" Alert!]
Chicago Sun Times ^ | 5/11/08 | Lynn Sweet

Rob Malley, a Middle East policy adviser to likely Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama, resigned after news surfaced that he had been meeting with Hamas -- something Obama pledged he himself would never do.

Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt said Saturday Malley called the Obama campaign on Friday to sever ties with the candidate after learning the Times of London was publishing a story about his contacts with the terrorist group.

He told NBC News that his job "is to meet with all sorts of savory and unsavory people and report on what they say. I've never denied whom I meet with; that's what I do."

LaBolt said, "Sen. Obama strongly opposes talking to Hamas, a terrorist group committed to Israel's destruction. As president, he will work to isolate Hamas and target its resources, and rejects any dialogue until Hamas recognizes Israel, renounces terrorism, and abides by previous agreements."

LaBolt, downplaying Malley's role, said, "Rob Malley has, like hundreds of other experts, provided informal advice to the campaign in the past. He has no formal role in the campaign and he will not play any role in the future."

He may have a little Mosque-erade going, too...
 
Obama: Man of the World
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: March 6, 2007

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to
prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that
seemed delightfully uncalculated [...], Mr. Obama described the
call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset."

John Bachelor on his Sunday night show this evening had a segment and report from the middle-East that reported Hamas continues to support Obama and there is yet another Obama adviser on staff with connections to Hamas!

So is it "resigns" or fired as the other threads state here?

Is there any doubt why BHO will not use his middle name in the campaign.
The sad part is that McCain won’t either!
If BHO is elected this will be a country I will have to fight against!
One can only hope that truth will prevail.
D, out.

Ahh, that cuddly Obamao campaign, with their advisors wandering the Globe chatting up terrorist Israel haters and FARC narco terrorists pledging their hope upon him.

At this rate, we need a “ending credits” type jpeg of all of the wacky, leftist and muslim terror orgs that support his campaign, from VZ to downtown Beruit to the Jungles of Columbia to the twisted halls of liberal acadamae, this guy just has a whole slew of character witnesses now doesn’t he?

So we’re supposed to believe Malley met with Hamas on his own, without Obama’s knowledge just for the hell of it?
