Is there nothing Obama won’t disclose to our enemies?

Looks like Obama’s “flexibility” to former KGB Boss Putin is coming a little early - - - .

Not to sound like a queer, but in nuclear war a “diversity” of capabilities is a good thing.

Must be just me. I see nothing here that the Soviets would not have figured out for themselves at the time. BFD.

Is he also selling plans for the KH-9/11/12 systems to Iran? Like he gave them that drone. How can people not see this?

In looking at them, it seems Carter made a real mess of things.

But nothing pertaining to Obama’s past gets “declassified”.

The main document is here:

At least they redacted the actual target list.

The only people who didn't know the contents of this are the American People. The USSR was always MUCH better at turning and recruiting Humint. Witness the current squatter in the WH.

The Idea of the ineffable joys of Communism has been a constant in academia and among the the Special Elite for 120 years. It's easy to convince an idiot who already believes that everyone should have an atomic bomb to hand over some minor construction details. The only people who don't deserve this data are the Proles under the direct control of Democrats.

Putin praises Cold War moles for stealing U.S. nuclear secrets
Reuters ^ | Wed Feb 22, 2012 5:04pm EST | Steve Gutterman

Vladimir Putin praised Cold War-era scientists on Thursday for stealing U.S. nuclear secrets so that United States would not be the world's sole atomic power, in comments reflecting his vision of Russia as a counterweight to U.S. power.

Spies with suitcases full of data helped the Soviet Union build its atomic bomb, he told military commanders.

"You know, when the States already had nuclear weapons and the Soviet Union was only building them, we got a significant amount of information through Soviet foreign intelligence channels," Putin said, according to state-run Itar-Tass.

"The were carrying the information away not on microfilm but literally in suitcases. Suitcases!"

Putin's remarks referred to the dawn of the Cold War more than half a century ago, but they echoed a message he has made loud and clear more recently: that the United States needs to be restrained, and Russia is the country to do it. …

Open Mic Catches Obama Asking Medvedev for Space on Missile Defense
March 26, 2012

"In a private conversation about the planned U.S.-led NATO missile defense system in Europe, President Barack Obama asked outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for space on the issue.

This is my last election,” Obama told Medvedev. “After my election I have more flexibility.”

“I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir,” Medvedev said, referring to incoming President Vladimir Putin."

http://fox8.com/2012/03/26/open-mic-catches-obama-asking-medvedev-for-space-on-missile-defense/
__________________________________________________

Obama was talking with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev when neither of them realized that their conversation was being picked up by microphones. Here is what they said:

Obama: “On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space.”

Medvedev: “Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you ...”

Obama: “This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.”

Medvedev: “I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.”

“This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.” That statement tells us much about the president’s mindset.

The specific mention of missile defense is worrisome enough. Mr. Obama has retreated from the missile defense plan that was negotiated with European allies during the George W. Bush administration. Apparently, he is signaling Moscow that he intends to retreat further. The clear implication from the president’s comments is that he cannot tell the American people before the election what he plans to do after the election.

In addition, there is the phrase “on all these issues,” implying more is at stake than just missile defense.”

Obama To Betray Missile Defense Secrets To Moscow
Investor's Business Daily ^ | January 9, 2012 | IBD staff

Appeasement: From ObamaCare to recess appointments, honoring the Constitution has not been an administration hallmark. But when it comes to betraying secrets to mollify the Russians, it becomes a document the president hides behind.

It was bad enough that the 2012 defense authorization bill signed by President Obama set America on a downward spiral of military mediocrity.

He also issued a signing statement, something he once opposed, saying that language in the bill aimed at protecting top-secret technical data on the U.S. Standard Missile-3 — linchpin of our missile defense — might impinge on his constitutional foreign-policy authority.

Section 1227 of the defense law prohibits spending any funds that would be used to give Russian officials access to sensitive missile-defense technology as part of a cooperation agreement without first sending Congress a report identifying the specific secrets, how they'd be used and steps to protect the data from compromise.

The president is required to certify that any technology shared will not be passed on to third parties such as China, North Korea or Iran, that the Russians will not use transferred secrets to develop countermeasures and that the Russians are reciprocating in sharing missile-defense technology.

I would like to very much know if, buried in the weasel wording of PD-59 is the intent for "Launch On Warning."

This means that, if there is sufficient evidence that the USSR is planning to attack, we Hit the Button. Another thing is that the the Missile Gap that Kennedy won the '60 election with didn't exist.

In fact, when Monster McNamara actually asked to see the true targeting intelligence, he went pale when he found that the Pentagon was having to target small town police stations, just to use all the available delivery systems and warheads.

The Cuban Crisis was because while Khrushchev KNEW he had a pair of deuces to a Spade Royal Flush, he didn't think Kennedy the Goat had the moral courage to actually pull the trigger.

Oh for goodness sake. We had access to this as missileers and it was REALLY sensitive stuff.

What are they going to do next? Release copies of the Reserve Force Target List (RFTL)?

As I recall, Carter re-targeted many U.S. missiles away from Soviet population centers and focused them on command and control bunkers and the shelters of the Soviet hierarchy. This was done in part in a fit of anger over the invasion of Afghanistan when Carter realized his Russian pals were playing him for a dupe. The problem with knocking out c & c sites in the first exchange was that their might not be a Soviet left alive who was senior enough to stop the slaughter.
