Obama Mentioned on Captured FARC Hard Drive

Remember Raul Reyes, the FARC terrorist that Columbia killed the other day? Reyes' extermination has led Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez to threaten war by sending troops and tanks to the border.

Turns out Barack Obama is discussed on FARC computer equipment captured during the raid.

Gateway Pundit has the story, including this translation of FARC files:
6. The gringos will ask for an appointment with the minister to solicit him to communicate to us his interest in discussing these topics. They say that the new president of their country will be Obama and that they are interested in your compatriots. Obama will not support "Plan Colombia" nor will he sign the TLC (Colombian Free Trade agreement). Here we responded that we are interested in relations with all governments in equality of conditions and that in the case of the US it is required a public pronouncement expressing their interest in talking with the FARC given their eternal war against us.
Of course the MSM is all over this story, not.
