To all the Putin apologists,

[MortMan]

And you sound like every liberal poster I have ever encountered. All ad hominem, all the time.

If Reagan never offered sharing Star Wars with the Russians, they would have eventually launched a first strike with the intent to completely incapacitate. Guaranteed. The offer is what removed that stumbling block. The Russians saw light at the end of the tunnel you were leading them into.

And this is what they see now. You have an American President completely out of control domestically. He plainly states he can do what ever he wants. And there is amble evidence he is also doing that internationally. Racked up over 2,500 kills with drones. Is that out of control ? Can a man still be considered sane after doing that ? And now we have the Neo-Cons, who refuse to even admit Obama is out of control, pounding their chests and demanding Obama get even more out of control. The Russians again see no light at the end of the tunnel you are leading them into. Good luck with that....

Later

Judging sanity might not be your strong point since that post was pretty far out there, I did love your “guarantee” though.
