later in the article:
... said New York University scholar Barnett Rubin, who attended the brainstorming summit"- and which the article identifies as "an informal Obama advisor".
Bush administration...secret meeting that everyone seems to be commenting on...Obama advisor attending....- something doesn't compute here. I'm thinking this was really a resume building seminar with a free Continental breakfast.
What the hell is going on in America.
The News Wipe said it was secret until Obama’s folks got involved.
These people can not be trusted and yet Obama has a shot to be president, just damn.
It didn’t make much news, but it has been confirmed that Bush personally has been briefing Hillary and Obama on national security matters, he probably doing the same for McCain. For the Bush Family, governing is different from campaigning. With Obama having a good shot at becoming President, I can easily see Bush asking Obama to send an advisor to this brainstorm.
