Obama decides to unilaterally announce secret U.S. missile tests, satellite launches
L.A. Times ^ | 5/21/10 | Andrew Malcolm

Obama has decided to pre-announce to the world once-secret American ballistic missile tests and satellite launches.

The Democratic administration's goal is to show a friendlier face to other countries and to coax Russia to do the same.

It's part of a confidence-boosting initiative launched, so to speak, last fall when Obama suddenly abandoned the U.S. missile-defense system in Eastern Europe that had exercised the Russians, though it was aimed at potential future missiles from Iran.

Obama hoped such a unilateral U.S. forfeiture would encourage Russia to put pressure on Iran to halt its nuclear weapons development. So far no good on that.

At some point, he is going to package up our most advanced thermonuclear devices and hand them to Iran — it will be a test to see if we can trust those bastards.

I would hope that the Pentagon, as well as major defense contractors, keep the important secrets of this country away from this idiot.

This guy is a danger to our country. To think we have to live with this guy until 2012. Hopefully we will at least takeover the House in 2010. God help us.

He is a threat, but no one will do anything about it.

wouldn’t high crimes include treason?

i believe disclosing top secret information to the enemy is treason.

last week it was the number of warheads. this week he want’s to give a demonstration to the enemy.

is he also going to give results? (grrr)

About what you'd expect from the sophomore-in-chief.

Seriously -- take any topic and ask what an idealistic, left-leaning, 19 year old sophomore would do in any given situation ... and you'll accurately predict what Obama will do about it.

2012 can't come soon enough.

He going to coax the Russians to do the same? What is he smoking?

Not only does this not serve a purpose, it makes him look like a rookie.

Is the whole purpose of his administration to make Hillary look good in comparison?

How she can be his SOS is beyond me. Any bets on her staying past December?
