As he now seems to be a lock for the Democrat nominee the most liberal Senator in the Senate, the man who hasn't seen a Marxist idea he didn't like, is now trying to move to the center. But alas, this isn't the age of the dinosaur media and he is caught with his pants down once again: (great catch by LGF )
Susan E. Rice, a former State Department and National Security Council official who is a foreign policy adviser to the Democratic candidate, said that "for political purposes, Senator Obama's opponents on the right have distorted and reframed " his views.

, or talks about visiting 57 states , choosing instead to lob softball after softball to Obama. Most telling, most of the establishment media adopts whatever spin Obama chooses to put on the Rev. Jeremiah Wright , even though Obama's claims that he was ignorant of Wright's controversial sermons are also transparently laughable.

Dr. Susan Rice, one of Sen. Obama's top foreign policy advisers, got caught telling a whopper today. LGF gets credit for catching this whopper :

LittleGreenFootballs addresses whether Obama really meant "he wouldn't" when he said "he would" talk to Iran's Ahmadinejad.
In a New York Times article , Susan E. Rice, an Obama adviser (who may be on her way out given Obama's track record with advisers), stated that his position had been "distorted and reframed." She said that Obama never said he would have "initiated contacts at the Presidential level" with rogue states like Iran.
But LGF recalls that he did:
"The problem is, Barack Obama did say he'd meet with Iran unconditionally, in front of a lot of people, at the CNN/YouTube Democratic debate last July.

Anyone remember this CNN/YouTube Democrat Debate question:
QUESTION: In 1982, Anwar Sadat traveled to Israel, a trip that resulted in a peace agreement that has lasted ever since.
In the spirit of that type of bold leadership, would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea, in order to bridge the gap that divides our countries?

Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs today - - - In yet another New York Times advocacy piece for Barack Obama, we discover that the Obama campaign is trying to rewrite history again: Susan E.

Mr. McCain and his surrogates have repeatedly stated that Mr.

An examination of Mr. Obama's numerous public statements on the subjects indicates that he has consistently condemned Hamas as a "terrorist organization," has not sought the group's support and does not advocate immediate, direct or unconditional negotiations with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president. (emphasis mine)
So, like what Obama said at this CNN debate:
Question: In 1982, Anwar Sadat traveled to Israel, a trip that resulted in a peace agreement that has lasted ever since. In the spirit of that type of bold leadership, would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea, in order to bridge the gap that divides our countries?
