I'm still withholding final judgement on THIS, but IF it proves to be true that Obama tried to interfere with U.S. military policy in Iraq, I would hope that, not only would his Presidential bid be a moot point, but that he would be facing a long stretch in the Federal Grey Bar Hotel in Leavenworth.
The Logan Act makes it quite clear as to what private citizens, including Senators and Congresscritters can and CAN'T do overseas, and if the Taheri's statements are true, it's clear that Teh One far overstepped the bounds of legality. Even if he didn't step far enough over the line to constitute a crime, his obvious placement of his candidacy above both the best interests of the Country and the safety of her soldiers engaged in a war should put to rest any consideration of his being qualified to be POTUS...

UPDATE:

But 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.
In other words, Taheri says Po-ta-to and Barry says Po-Taa-to, but it's still the same root vegetable.

There you have court admissible evidence that GHO did INDEED interfere with the foreign policy of the U.S. in a time of war, and that he did so merely for his own political views.

My wish would be to request that he be charged under the Logan Act as soon as possible. My advice to Barry would be to cop a plea in exchange for a lesser term, and don't drop the soap in the showers.
