Obama Apparently Unable To Think More Than One Step Ahead

March 3rd, 2009 by Kevin

In a move no doubt copied directly from his \”Jimmy Carter\’s Guide To Foreign Policy\” book, Obama has decided to trade away one of our countries best insurance policies in order to enlist a thug to help negotiate with a lying sociopath.

President Obama offered to consider scrapping plans for a missile defense shield in Europe if Russia helps rein in Iran\’s nuclear program, the Russian newspaper Kommersant reported.

The article said Obama wrote to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to tell him Russia\’s aid in resolving the threat from Iran would make the missile shield plans unnecessary, according to an account from Russian news agency RIA Novosti.

So even if this worked out AND Russia was able to against all odds negotiate with Iran AND Iran agreed AND for whatever reason we could actually trust Iran to follow through, Obama considers the missile shield \”unnecessary\”.  I hate to over-simplify things but that\’s a lot like saying because someone quits smoking they don\’t need health insurance anymore.  Although if that sort of logic appeals to Obama, I\’d like to point out I just found a really simple way to eliminate the federal deficit.

Iran is not the only reason that a missile shield would be useful.  North Korea would be another prime example, especially since they already possess missles that could reach parts of US territory.  Not to mention that something as complex as a missile shield takes years, if not decades to fully develop.  Waiting until a more credible threat exists is not an option for those that value security.

The Russians are known to be good chess players, and it seems they prove so again, as they have Obama willing to trade away his Queen for a Pawn.  Amateur hour continues in the White House.

    You don’t really mean to credit the Russians for being great global chess players in this instance, do you? I mean, Obama’s dog could beat him at chess, too, and Obama doesn’t even have one yet. Another promise broken, another expected stupidity realized.

    I was crediting the Russian’s with being great chess players.

    And they’ve traditionally been pretty good at this global game of chess as well. They schooled Bush several times and remember the Cold War remained a stalemate for years before finally being broken.

    That’s true, but it’s like crediting the LA Lakers with beating the Sister Mary’s Home for Unwed Mothers team. They’re good, but they have no real competition here. The man’s a naif, and that’s the nice French word.

    Which is why I pointed out that the Cold War was a stalemate for a long time. Certainly for parts of the Cold War we had competent leadership and they still manage to play this global chess game pretty well.

    They lost some pieces but they took some as well.
