Too true

From The Hill:
President Barack Obama welcomed Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to the White House on Thursday, boasting that the two men have reset their countries' relationship in a way unthinkable when Obama took office.
I can't argue with that. After that ludicrous "reset button" incident, shafting the Poles and the Czechs, sitting pat while Russia invaded Georgia in a manner not seen since the Third Reich rolled into the Rhineland, announcing a unilateral nuclear disarmament deal that had Putin hugging himself with delight, wooing Moscow about applying sanctions on Iran while allowing Russia to do everything it can to help the Mullahs get the bomb short of sending them a warhead, disaffecting every major ally in NATO, and generally going around with a sign on his back saying "Пните меня", I thought it unthinkable back in January 2009, too.
