TREASON WATCH….Did Barack Obama try to persuade Iraqi leaders to delay a security agreement with the United States? Even Republican witnesses say he did no such thing during a meeting in Baghad, but how about during a June phone call with Iraq’s foreign minister? Apparently not then either:
The statement by Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari refutes a recent published report and a statement by Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin that Obama tried to influence Iraqi politicians negotiating with the United States to score political points.
Obama “never, ever discouraged us not to sign the agreement,” Zebari said. “I think this was misrepresented, and I have clarified this case in a number of interviews back in the United States recently.”
The ball’s back in your court, wingnuts — though I guess you’ve already moved on to “Bill Ayers ghostwrote Obama’s book” nutbaggery, haven’t you? Must be hard typing while wearing a straitjacket, though.
