President Obama just gave the world a glimpse into his future foreign policy plans this week, should he win a second term. On tap for Obama II: more faith in our adversaries, more betrayal of our traditional allies and more unilateral indulgence in nuclear abolition fantasies.
Monday, President Obama told Russian President Medvedev that “This is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility.” Medvedev responded that he would dutifully report that tidbit to Vladimir Putin back in the Kremlin. The men apparently did not realize their discussion was being caught by a live microphone.
Given that the two were talking about missile defense, the implication was clear enough. In order to please Russia, President Obama will use a second term to weaken further the peaceful, purely defensive systems that can defend the U.S. and our allies from missile attacks.

who is going to put him on trial? no one. that is why he is getting away with anything and everything no one has a spine to stand up for what is or used to be correct.
FReepers - is this not reason to try the man for endangering our personal and national security?
Attn Freepers:
I refuse to watch the state-run, liberal-left, lame-stream, progressive-communist media. However, I would appreciate if a Freeper who does indulge in Major Network News, to advise me of exactly how the state-run media is reporting this story. Are they spinning it, as usual? Or have they chose to totally ignore the story and its impact on America?
That he will tell foreigners,,,”ill do exactly what you want. You already won the negotiations, so you won’t need to give me anything in return. I’ll dance like a monkey on a stick for you. All i need, is for you to let me wait until after i no longer need to answer to the people i am SUPPOSED to represent.”
That about right?
The American people should be demanding a trial... but, you're right - the people have become sheep ripe for shearing.
agree, open mic was blessing. NoObama
You can bet your last buck that media will virtually ignore this - and they will, unless there is a huge public outcry.
THIS is perfect fodder for GOP candidates to take to the microphone... the big question is, will they??
I watch the Media ,What story is that you are talking about?
American people “not required” after Obama is re-elected
I wonder if he’s going to try and bypass the Supreme Court if they strike down his health insurance scam.
Can he impose this monstrosity by executive order?
Last night, NBC Nightly used it as a “ha ha” story.
You've got that right. He wants hard-core socialism/communism.
I watch a little msn from time to time mostly for the laughs and the whole keep you enemies closer deal. I haven’t heard anything about this story and doubt that anyone will report it. Unless, the tape leaks which conversely you will probably hear of some poor reporter losing his head in a car accident on the beltway. Either way Obama will be protected by the msm.
Let's qualify that a bit - "No one in the media."
The huge majority of this nation's population want him gone a looong time ago. We will be cleaning up this bastards mess for decades after he is gone... IF we can survive long enough!
If there’s really 40% out there who approve of this treasonous pig-with-blue-lipstick....then is there really a country remaining to betray?
Duh! Of course he will. The Chosen One can do as he pleases.
Sure, why do you think he's building a private loyal army?
Why hasn't the DOJ shut down the open call for vigilantism? It's a recruiting drive!
No he can not. But, he can still do greater damage to this nation every day. Election day can hardly come soon enough to limit his wreckage.
Call your congressmen and complain about BO.
After the ENEMEDIA gets done with magic underwear boy, or his catholic altar boy shadow, they’ll have you convinced you’re voting for Adolph if you vote for one of them.
Nothing to ponder here. For a while I was thinking I might even vote for him over Romney, but not after these past few weeks.
Of course, my first priority is ensuring we don't HAVE to choose between Obama and Romney in the first place.
It’s getting a fair amount of play here in Australia...
“More to ponder when conservatives have to choose if to sit out the election, or hold their noses in November.”
I will vote for an amoeba in order to get 0bama out. This country cannot survive four more years of 0bama.
I’m sure that according to our “justice” system, not one single American citizen has standing to file suit.
Why do you say he cannot? Is there a legal basis for that? I’m only asking because so much of what he has already done is unconstitutional so I don’t doubt for a second that he would try it.
Just WOW! It's hard for Obama to laugh this off and spin it away - would make a great ad for the Republican nominee.
Telling anyone this sort of thing is saying "in the end, you will win"! America will lose.
Crickets chirping.......
I imagine that Putin knows more about who Obama is than most Americans. Because little Barry grew up among Communists and KGB agents, and probably continued to keep his connections with them.
Folks, I hate to be the bearer of some bad news, but not only can he, i.e., in the future... in fact he ALREADY HAS!
It's the EO from about 2 weeks ago, where Chu can declare even a non-war national emergency, and zer0 is basically dictator...
If the court rules it unconstitutional for government to do this, then that includes any action of or by the president.
Yeah - the creep might want to try executive order, then that too can be taken to the court. I just seriously doubt he would be stupid enough to bloody his political-nose again, as it is already pretty red and sore.
“Last night, NBC Nightly used it as a “ha ha” story.”
Well, those were the instructions.
Last night our local affiliate touched on it in passing (maybe because the world press is all over the story?). They glossed over it with a tone of light amusement, portraying the incident as just another entertaining moment in the president's day.
Admit it, it takes the MSM to stir things up before Congress takes action. Richard Nixon would still be with us if not for the determination of the Graham cracker woman (the owner of the WashPost at the time) to oust him.
And that is the makings of a French revolution. What the hell is wrong with us?! Why won't our representatives stop him? What are they so freakin' frackin' afraid of in DC?
It sure isn't We the People, now is it? We can put a million people in the street in DC and they don't care, they are not afraid, hell they are not even concerned. Why?
You can't even say they stay holed up in their caves...they come out and parade around us and mock us.
Pelosi gavel walk Obamacare vote day/protest
/rant off
The problem with hold one’s nose in November is that is exactly the strategy that has given us such a weak congress and dismal GOP-e.
So...the strategy will give us what? A Romney? Romney isn’t going to stop, repeal anything. Once he is in he is going to rollover like a good dog.

Newt Gingrich Statement on Obama’s “Flexibility” In Defending America and Her Allies
March 27, 2012
The President’s remark to his Russian counterpart that he would have more “flexibility” on ballistic missile defense after the election underscores how dangerous an Obama re-election would be. The President promised the Senate during the ratification debate on the New START Treaty he would not compromise on the Russian demand to limit US ballistic missile defense. Now we find out that promise was nothing more than empty words. The Russian demands, including ballistic missile deployment restrictions, limits on the technological capabilities of our missiles, and joint control over launch decisions, if agreed to by the US government; constitute a clear-and-present danger to American security.
Background: The Russians are seeking the following:
A legally binding agreement to limit future US ballistic missile defense;
The Russians seek to impose deployment restrictions on US sea-based ballistic missile defense systems including the deployment of Aegis-class missile defense ships from the Black Sea – the path over which Iranian ICBMs would have to travel to reach the US;
The Russians seek joint control of a decision to launch ballistic missile defense interceptors – effectively “outsourcing” life-or-death” decisions about American security to the Kremlin;
Restrictions on the capability of US defensive missiles to prevent them from being able to shoot down ICBMs. This would be implemented by imposing performance limitations on US interceptors – the velocity (at burnout, Vbo) may not exceed 4-km/sec.
This figure reinstates the limitation derived from the now defunct ABM Treaty of 1972. The Obama administration would use these agreements with Russia to effectively recreate the constraints of the ABM Treaty.
The MSM - liberals - and the New York Times will be in there helping him get elected:

Obama's part of a Russian team?
It reveals why must fear an Obama 2nd term .
Even more than a Mitt first term.
One avenue of action is to limit your spending to essentials, particularly when it comes to products advertised on the Major TV networks.
Does two things:
reduces their revenue streams,
and two:
reduces those vendors who advertise on the aO Bama supported news.
It’s a matter of priciple.
Yes
....then is there really a country remaining to betray?
Doubtful, IMO.
This is treason, pure and simple. The man deserves to be brought to trial.
Guessing they are too close to the trees to see the forest.
The forest is shifting...everyday, things are developing more quickly.
Metaphysical things, I think.
Pray without cessation!
And hang on tight!
