Funny Obama keeps using Communism high point “Sputnik” instead of our high point landing a man on the moon

[RexBeach]

“Hi, I’m Uri Gagarin, and I’ve had my own ‘Sputnik Moment’.

[bert]

Let’s see, did Sputnik happen right after the Depression or was it the end of WWII? Since they quit teaching history, things get mixed up a lot. Didn’t sputnik have something to do with the Holocaust?

Sputnik 10 was the first man in space—launched April 12, 1961:

>>>>the first human launched into in outer space, Yuri Gagarin, made his spaceflight on Vostok 1 on April 12, 1961.<<<

A time when the USSR surpassed the US in technology, among other things. And when Obama was born.

“Sputnik” is probably code to his Soviet handlers.

A Sputnik Moment is a bad thing, and a bad analogy for the president to use. The original Sputniks moment occurred in October of 57' when the American public realized that we are open to a surprise nuclear missile attack from the Solviet Union and their is not a thing that can be done to stop it once the missile is launched. This oh Sh!t moment, spurred the Federal government to fund missile development to counter the threat (missile gap).
