No apologies for posting consecutively on Barack Obama: the Looney Tunes President’s sell-out of US and Western interests is proceeding at such a speed that it is difficult to keep pace. Well said, Nile Gardiner, for asking if Barack Obama is the most naïve president in American history. The answer is undoubtedly yes – unless he has a secret agenda to cut America down to size.
It was always in Russia that Obama threatened to do most damage and, as Nile Gardiner has rightly pointed out, these forebodings have been fulfilled. His supposed missile deal with Vladimir Putin (let’s cut straight to the organ-grinder and by-pass Medvedev, the monkey) is very satisfactory to Russian ambitions and realpolitik.

There is even a nuclear bomb in Pakistan, which is teetering on the brink of failed statehood at the hands of Islamist insurgents. Is this a time for America to disarm, to “sell the store” as one trenchant right-wing commentator has already described Obama’s posturing in Moscow?
For Obama, success is not the delivery of watertight nuclear security for America; it is a

Well, he has spent his entire “adult” life seeking out the company of those who want to destroy this country.
“Barack Obama: the Looney Tunes President”
ROFL!! Sooo true. :-)
Our military has sworn an oath to protect the nation and the Constitution from enemies “both foreign and domestic.”
Are they going to block the tarmac so Air Force One can’t land?
The military could resist this if Obama does an end run around the Senate ratification of treaty - a violation of the US Constitution that they are sworn to uphold.
