Russian President Dmitry Medvedev said on Monday he wanted his US counterpart Barack Obama to win re-election next year, fearing that the two men's efforts to improve ties may lose steam under a new administration.

"I can tell you directly -- I would like Barack Obama to be re-elected president of the United States maybe more than someone else," Medvedev said in an interview with the Financial Times whose full transcript was released by the Kremlin early Monday.

But asked whether he thought the "reset" in relations would last for a long time, Medvedev waxed philosophical. "Nothing lasts too long under the moon."

Strange way to put it.

Good to know that Russian thugs support Obama for re-election. No doubt soon to be endorsed by Hugo Chavez, the Chinese communists, and North Koreans.

-"Medvedev says wants to see Obama re-elected"

Gee, I wonder why??

I don't recall the Russians/Soviets saying the same thing about Reagan.

[mort56]

This should seal the illegal Russian vote.

[rokkitapps]

why? Because Obama is playing checkers on the world stage, and the Russians are playing chess.

I thought it said Medved (Michael) at first glance, which didn’t even surprise me.

[fwdude]

And Hamas?

[BitWielder1]

Can we pick the next Russian president please?

[Genoa]

Been picked.

I can think of more heads of state who want Bambi to stay in the White Hut — Chavez, Castro, Karzai, Ghaddafi, King Abdullah and every other Muslim president.

[AngelesCrestHighway]

FUDM!

[13Sisters76]

Of course our enemies want this boob re-elected! Destroying the economy from within, making Congress more and more irrelevant, destruction of civil liberties and the Constitution, hatred for everything American....They couldn’t get a better deal with outright invasion.

Any wise foreign government official, whose country is in competition with the US, and doesn't have a weak point where Obama can stab him in the back, wants Obama reelected. It's like getting to fight a 4 year old girl for her daddy's estate.

When asked for his input on who the commander of America’s Third Army ought to be, German Fieldmarshall Rommel paused and reflected for a moment. “That Patton fellow you have is no good,” he said. “I don’t recommend him. There’s a fellow named Alan Fischbein who might be good for the job. Why not put him in charge instead?”

Obama isn’t playing checkers, he is playing with himself while the whole world watches him get off on himself
