Nuclear missiles parade across Red Square
Breitbart.com ^ | May 9, 2008 | AFP

"Nuclear missiles and tanks paraded Friday across Red Square for the first time since the Soviet era but new President Dmitry Medvedev warned other nations against "irresponsible ambitions" that he said could start wars. Marching bands and 8,000 troops goose-stepped across the square, followed by a huge display of heavy weapons including Topol-M ballistic missiles and T-90 tanks, and a fly-by of warplanes.

Reviewing his first parade as commander in chief, Medvedev warned against "irresponsible ambitions" that he said could spark war across entire continents.

In an apparent attack on US foreign policy and Western backing for Kosovo's independence, Medvedev also criticised "intentions to intrude in the affairs of other states and especially redraw borders." "

This is one of those excellent “Breaking +70 years” threads.

No wait, it’s not. The Russians are in a time warp.

"Everything Reagan has done, is now undone."

And it only took three different presidents a total of 20 years to (un)do it.

We may, I say, may have defeated communism , but the ‘authoritian regimes’ will never die!
The totalitarians fail, but they have discovered the benefits of a ‘political society’. You know the government controlling everything for the ‘common good’. Coming soon to the theater near you!

I wouldn’t worry about it all that much. It’s saber rattling for Chinese consumption.

All this because we refuse to drill for oil. The Bush energy policy is the Greenpeace energy policy: national suicide.

“Don’t worry-Obama and the Rats will dismantle our military.”

Obama has made it quite clear that this is his goal! And can you imagine Obama head to head with Medvedev? Obama is Steve Urkle without the brains.

Ever notice how all regimes that march in goose-step, or other silly walk, are evil and totalitarian? What’s up with the silly-walking? It leads to defeat, every time...as long as GOOD MEN and women are in charge, and not wussy’s like Carter or Obama.

“Everything Reagan has done, is now undone” Definitely not true. Today Russia has a Church that is on the way back and when you consider what the Saints have done for the Church, most notably St. Constantine, President Reagan’s accomplishments, in my humble opinion rank right up there, if he were Orthodox himself there would have been a great case to canonize him as Saint Ronald. it isn’t only in the Old Soviet Union but all of Eastern Europe.
