Yesterday the shocking news was reported that Barack Obama undermined US foreign policy during his Iraq trip. Allegedly, he lobbied Iraqi officials to delay drawing down the number of American soldiers stationed there. Today, the Obama camp released
the most incompetent denial imaginable:
Obama’s national security spokeswoman Wendy Morigi said Taheri’s article bore "as much resemblance to the truth as a McCain campaign commercial."
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.
