What did he do - wave his hand?

If you saw the presser he had that cocky head tilted look that made him look full of himself....

Suppose Obama’s Secretary of State will have anything to say about the visit? What’s her relevance to Obama’s administration these days?

In particular, Obama touted the summit's agreements on nuclear proliferation Obama said he hopes to reduce the the U.S. and Russia's nuclear arsenal by about a third.

"He" will only be able to reduce the U.S. arsenal. Since Putin wasn't there we will have to wait and see what Russia will do with theirs. I ain't gonna hold my breath though.

This from the American Thinker:

Some of the things Obama wrote in this March 10, 1983 article or so out of the mainstream of even today's far left Democratic party that it is clear we have a radical leftist on his way to Moscow to negotiate our nuclear arsenal while threatening to bypass the senate altogether in order to make it stick.

Here is the president of the United States as a student at Columbia:

Generally, the narrow focus of the [Nuclear] Freeze movement as well as academic discussions of first versus second strike capabilities, suit the military-industrial interests, as they continue adding to their billion dollar erector sets.  When Peter Tosh sings that "everybody's asking for peace, but nobody's asking for justice," one is forced to wonder whether disarmament or arms control issues, severed from economic and political issues, might be another instance of focusing on the symptoms of a problem instead of the disease itself.

And that "disease" is American "militarism" and "economic injustice." Here's our president writing what McCarthy aptly calls "leftist gobbldygook:"

Indeed, the most pervasive malady of the collegiate system specifically, and the American experience generally, is that elaborate patterns of knowledge and theory have been disembodied from individual choices and government policy. What the members of ARA and SAM try to do is infuse what they have learned about the current situation, bring the words of that formidable roster on the face of Butler Library, names like Thoreau, Jefferson, and Whitman, to bear on the twisted logic of which we are today a part. By adding their energy and effort in order to enhance the possibility of a decent world, they may help deprive us of a spectacular experience - that of war; But then, there are some things we shouldn't have to live through in order to want to avoid the experience.

Is it possible that Obama moderated his views over the years and is now just a good old fashioned Democrat rather than a far left radical loon who quotes a reggae singer to make his case against the military?

I’d love to play poker with this idiot!

He went over there, announcing to the world his intent to come back with a “signed aggreement”.
This only means that the U.S. makes all of the concessions because the Russians have no incentive to compromise on ANYTHING!

I think he just returned Alaska. That would explain Palin’s resignation.

I remember when Bush was elected the first time, leaders from all over the world traveled to the USA to meet with him.

Now Obama. How many have traveled to the US. From what I recall, not too many. It's either they don't want to come to the "mountain" or the "mountain" wants to do the traveling so he can get neat trips on that cool aeroplane and visit the world.

Just how many frequent flyer miles has he wracked up so far in just 6-7 months?

Of all the problems in the world today, the number of nuclear weapons we and the Russians have isn’t ON THE RADAR. Nobody cares anymore, we know we aren’t going to launch ours, and Russia isn’t likely to launch theirs.

Obama is living in the past, trying to solve a non-existant problem from the 70s that Reagan already took care of in the 80s.

What’s next, is he going to solve the problem of the Warsaw Pact expansion?

LOL!

“Reset”, or “Overcharge”?

I guess Hillary’s big red button worked after all!

“We have reset U.S.-Russia relations” about in the same regards as Barry suggesting that “the stimulus has done its job”....... =.=

Isn’t resetting something what you do when you want to turn it back into the way it was?

Again he shows his shame at being an American.

Why wouldn’t two people seeking the same goal, Communist domination of the world, agree to that? All they need do is hide the truth from the rest of us.

As usual, we will reduce our arsenal and the Russians will just pretend to do the same just in case we are able to elect a pro-American again.

Probably apologized for our role in the cold war, for standing in the way of the soviets instead of helping them.

Why would Obama consent to meet with the No.2 guy in Russia?

Stupidity?
