Russian lawmakers gave preliminary approval Friday to an arms agreement with the United States, but signaled they would slow progress on the so-called New START treaty to a crawl after it was rushed through Congress earlier this week with some 11th-hour arm-twisting by President Obama.

“What was the rush Obama?”

Losing votes in the Senate; wouldn’t pass in January.

We need a lame duck amendment to the US constitution to prevent defeated lawmakers from making important decisions for us.

“Amazing that none of these Senators have the ability to actually read.”

They have the ability to read.
They are well paid to ignore what they read and do as they are told.

Putin is again showing he is in charge; Obama will bow to him.

Boy I hope we have a country in 2 yrs.

During the next 2 yrs, our Republicans better turn into lions.

We need Mitch Rapp.

I agree. They will enlist for the express purpose of becoming “protected” and victims of hate crimes.

This is such a slap in the face for O-loser..... and everyone who is everybody knows it.

All my old media contacts in DC say this will be the #1 topic in the DC Christmas Eve party circuit.

Friend who runs the assignment desk at one of the networks in NYC says it is/will be the big UN gossip buzz.

Ping.............

From the article:

Konstantin Kosachev, head of the State Duma's foreign affairs committee, said that the treaty would need a total of three required readings before it can be fully ratified. He said full ratification could only happen next month "at the earliest."

If this isn't dissing 0b0z0, the Senate holiday-rush START ratification and embarrassing the USA, I don't know what is!

We have a POTUS called Carter Chamberlain who's being manhandled, dismissed and shouted at by despots, dictators, homosexuals, unions, illegal aliens, etc. However, he was supposed to "reset and improve" our status in the world to gain the respect we're due.

Thanks a million to our "fellow" Americans who voted him in!

Just more proof the rest of the world knows Hussein is a pansy and a laughing stock. If America survives this reign of terror, will it ever get back the status it once had? I doubt it.

Obama should be impeached, tried for treason and brought to justice by a jury of military families who lost loved ones due to Obama’s insane rules of engagement. I hope God stops Obama’s lying mouth soon and permanently.

A tactic I use myself...
putting off something I have no intention of doing anyway.

...but I say they won’t sign up in large numbers. Maybe the lesbians will....

But they can't be trusted in positions of power, most of them are men haters. Most of them don't really understand the God given difference between the two sexes. If they can't make good decisions when it comes to morals and ethics then they can't make good decisions on the command level above others especially if they get to high up the ladder. It will become the ungodly against the Godly in decisions and promotions etc.

They’re just treating Obama like a dog but he’s too stupid to realize it. He brought them a bone and they feign indifference. Then again, maybe the whole thing caught them off guard, figuring the Senate would not be so stupid as to vote for ratification.

hmmm, would this be called a “slow START”?"

More like a False Start...5 yard penalty.

We really do need a Mitch Rapp! Have you read the latest book? If so, was it as good as the others?

Hurry up and wait. You really can’t blame the Ruskies, because it’s hard to do much when you are rolling on the floor, laughing.
