Why Is This Not Big News?

Reports came out a few days back that Barack Obama, while on his self proclaimed "tour of duty", was pushing the Iraqi government to stall a troop withdrawal agreement with the U.S. while publicly shouting for a speedy withdrawal of our troops. This is according to the Iraqi Foreign Minister! He also tried to undermine our government and President by suggesting that they negotiate with Congress but leave the President out because of his "weakness." Obama has talked about having troops out by 2010 but if he got his way and delayed the discussions until he took power in January there would be no way to get the agreement done until the latter part of 2010 due to elections, administration formation, renegotiation and time to get the legislation passed. THIS IS INFURIATING!!
Obama pulls this under the table crap and then expects us not to question his patriotism? So in order to get his administration credit he would keep the American soldiers who he cares so much about in Iraq longer than need be. Not only that but he goes oversees and tries to undermine our President and government’s efforts to end the war. HE TRIED TO UNDERMINE OUR MILITARY AND PRESIDENT BY PUSHING FOR A SECRET AGREEMENT WITH A FOREIGN COUNTRY!! THAT IS TREASONOUS! This guy is a two faced liar and John McCain was spot on when saying Obama would rather lose a war than an election.
These reports aren’t just rumors either. Hoshyar Zebari, the Iraqi Foreign Minister announced this. The link to the original story is here: http://www.nypost.com/seven/09152008/postopinion/opedcolumnists/obama_tried_to_stall_gis_iraq_withdrawal_129150.htm
