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.

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
