PRAGUE – President Barack Obama has decided to scrap plans for a U.S. missile defense shield in the Czech Republic and Poland that had deeply angered Russia, the Czech prime minister confirmed Thursday. NATO's new chief hailed the move as "a positive step" and a Russian analyst said Obama's decision will increase the chances that Russia will cooperate more closely with the United States in the dispute over Iran's nuclear program.

going communist....
Peace through capitulation. Our new foreign policy...
“and a Russian analyst said Obama’s decision will increase the chances that Russia will cooperate more closely with the United States in the dispute over Iran’s nuclear program.”
Yeah appeasement has always worked so well.
The real question is why Russia felt so threatened by a defensive weapon.
I am sorry Poland. You’ve always been our good friend.
Is Obama deliberately humiliating the us for rejecting health care nationalization and cap’n trade?
Is this his idea of punishment?
Munich 1938 - redux
Czechs and Poles get screwed again.
Conspiracy Theory Alert: In return for discounted arms sales to Chavez, Obama relents on missile defense for awakening Bear.
hussein the TRAITOR! Fellating pootie.
LLS
WTF?
Fits the pattern. The dimrats always side with our enemies even when they are in power. Makes no sense because it always comes back to bite them in the ass.
Ditto, Poland us True Americans know you are friends and will do what we can to get our government back into the hands of the adults.
“I am sorry Poland. You’ve always been our good friend.”
Same here.
Dear Poland,
We apologize for this decision. May God protect you.
Selling out our allies worldwide.
No just for Poland, but for us as well? obama doesn’t like missile defense.
Great day for the russkies. They invaded a defeated country 70 years ago today and defeated another one 70 years later. Did we really win the cold war? This is got to be the most disgusting thing this basterd has done to this once great nation.
You can’t say you are surprised by this move are you?
I saw thus coming during the election.
My question is, how is Obama going to react when Israel bombs Iran’s nuke facility.
I’m thinking he’ll chastise Israel & remain nuetral.
Will US troops in Iraq be told to stand down & allow Iranian missiles to fly over Iraqi air space.
Hopefully our nation will come to its senses in 2010.
Uh huh... sure. You gonna sell me some elevation challenged property in Florida too?
