Obama Adviser Slammed for "Covert" Diplomacy

Obama Adviser Slammed for "Covert" Diplomacy
By Amanda Carpenter

Obama tries to play King Bam I; violates Logan Act against all common sense and protocol.

GOP presidential candidate John McCain’s foreign policy adviser sharply rebuked a key Middle East adviser of their rival’s campaign for engaging in “covert” diplomatic relations with Syria on Wednesday.

The harsh attack was made in reaction to a story published by the New York Sun in which Barack Obama’s Middle East adviser Daniel Kurtzer admitted discussing presidential politics with high-level Syrian officials at a conference underwritten Syrian business interests and a Canadian oil company.

Kurtzer, a former U.S. Ambassador to Israel and Egypt, said he told Syria’s Foreign Minister Walid al-Moallem, “to move ahead in the Israel-Syria negotiations as much as possible so that whoever is the next president would not start from too far down the track" but insisted the trip was not connected to his campaign work. "I did not say anything about Obama or McCain. I said whoever is the next president is not going to want to inherit a process that isn't going anywhere," Kurtzer told the Sun.

Former New York City Mayor and GOP presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani was also on the call. He likened Kurtzer’s meeting to Obama’s promise to meet with hostile, foreign leaders without “precondition,” a position Obama’s previous Democratic presidential rival Hillary Clinton criticized Obama for holding.

Giuliani said the Sun's report was “another indication of the inexperience Senator Obama has in conducting foreign policy and maybe an indication of his inability to do so in a way that would be responsible which is the point that Hillary Clinton made when Senator Obama said that he would negotiate with some of these people without precondition.”

“Maybe this is a playing out of his negotiating with dictators without precondition,” Giuliani said.

Isn't Obama doing a lot of treasonous things?

Geeez! We can't even go to Cuba, yet he is meeting with our enemies leaders! He isn't the president; he is only a senator. He can't speak for our country.

Yeah you keep thinking that, Les. President Bush is getting advice from Barack Obama about the war!


You know something, Les? You are too funny for words. You should take this act on the road.


Let me make one thing perfectly clear to you: Barack Obama will never, ever be our President.


The man's a moron and so are his supporters.
