I usually don’t talk politics on this blog because this is a business blog,  but Obama did something that for me is unexcuseable.  The main stream media is not talking about it because if people on the left knew about this there would be outrage from manyand they want Obama to win.  But the media in the middle east is talking about it .  I also found it in the NY Post and I first heard about it on Fox News. 

I think that every American should hear about this.  It is on the verge of treason.  Basically here is the gist of the story.  Obama went to Iraq on his tour there.  During a meeting with the Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari he basically presented himself as sure to be the next president.  He then went further to tell the Iraqi leader to NOT make a deal with the Bush adminisration and to wait until the election is over.  The reason he did this is clear, the Iraq war is almost over and if it ended or if there was a major event that was the sign of the end many people would not Vote for Obama.  Getting us out of the war is one of his main positions and if the war was over they may not support him.  

I think that this may be the first time in US history that a presidential candidate under minded the state departments policies by going to a foreign nation and counterdicting the current government.

If you read about it anywhere, you will find that the source of the story is the Iraqi Minister himself.  This delay would add at least 6 months to the war. At the current rate that would cost us about 70 billion dollars and about 70 American lives, all this for one man to be elected.  What ego.
