regular TV program in Russia was interrupted with this presidential adress.

[goseminoles]

Russian election rhetoric.

[dragnet2]

I’ve been told by the free trade crowd, Communist China is our good friend. Isn’t Russia our friend too?

yuk yuk...

[GonzoGOP]

Oh no Mr. Medvedev don't throw me in the brier patch.

If you are aiming at the missile defense sites we have already won. The purpose of missile defense is to keep missiles from hitting population and industrial centers. Every missile fired at a missile defense station is one that cannot hit a more valuable target. And since they are by their nature the best defended places, you are going to need a bunch of missiles to take them out.

Now we just have to build a few hundred fake missile defense sites to soak up even more missiles. How many missiles can your broken down economy make Mr. Medvedev? Because fake missile sites are cheap as heck but you can't take the chance of missing one so you need to hammer them all.

[Rutles4Ever]

How does one take out a missile defense system with a missile?

[Shadow44]

Medvedev is scare-mongering against the West to distract the public from other domestic issues. The Russian government has been doing this for forever.

[Williams]

To what possible end? And under what circumstances would they attack? If Europe defends itself from an Iranian ICBM launch?

Ridiculous, tell them to screw off.

[Army Air Corps]

Ping.

[PhilDragoo]

Is this Medvedev trying to be more macho than Putin.

It has the appearance of the Kabuki theater.

The big mask muffles the words and we can't see the facial expressions.

Obama has been a good little doormat for Putin to wipe his custom shoes on.

Obama has scrapped programs and cut defense, so Medvedev should be saying, "Good doggie."

A sane analysis shows such missile defense by U.S. is solely against the little Rat Boy in Tehran who continually screams, "I am short but I have a big missile Viagara."

Does Medvedev think he will intimidate Obama or Hillary or Panetta? These are apparatchiks pining for the Mao plan.

Is Medvedev playing to the nationalism? It is not arguable.

Do we not know of Yamantau Mountain and how Medvedev will ride the subway there while his people die?

Just what America needs right now is more heated rhetoric, right? No.

Russia has problems: alcoholism, birthrate, pressure from China in the East, and loss of China arms deals.

There is zero democracy and one hundred per cent corruption.

So let Medvedev bang his shoe. He will have to put it back on to walk to his limo.

Ah, the nostalgia of still being regarded as the war-mongering imperialist.

Ракетные Войска Стратегического Назначения: Russia's Strategic Missile Forces

[American in Israel]

How about America Vows to target all large Russian Cities in return.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Suck it, Med. Zero will probably capitulate, though. He’s only tough on allies and Americans.

[itsahoot]

Can’t be because none of our missiles are targeted anymore, we are being nice, what else can we do?

[NonValueAdded]

Target? target how? Like it isn't already dialed into their first strike plans? What are they going to do, attack us if we launch against an Iranian ICBM?

Not exactly an empty threat by the Russkies but an irrelevant one since defensive planning needs to assume the defensive systems are targeted.

[StAnDeliver]

Bla bla bla. So 1975. Douchebag Kabuki Theater, in Cyrillic. They ought to shoot one off under his nose just for kicks.

[Daffynition]

Ping me when we should start taking this clown seriously.

[PMAS]

Maybe that “Reset” button is broken

[Sarajevo]

Oh crap- it’s the Cold War all over again.

[redgolum]

Somebody in DC had better start reading history, and start studying strategy.

A guaranteed way to provoke a war with Russia is to start building up on her borders.

The sheer stupidity is staggering.

Or to put it this way, how would the US react to a Russian missile shield in Canada and Mexico?

[Victor]

Somehow I think the Russkies want to play with Obama a bit before he leaves office next year.

This could be a very interesting year. The Russkies (and everyone else) know what a sap Hussein is.....

[Pinkbell]

Time to hit the RESET button!
