Obama crowd suggests Romney is naive for not trusting Russia
IBD Editorials ^ | April 2, 2012 | Andrew Malcom

Team Obama has revealed its election campaign strategy to cover up the president's momentous whisper gaffe with the Russians last week: Attack Mitt Romney as naive and still living in an era when the Russians couldn't be trusted.

According to Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton, the democratic backsliding in Russia is nothing to worry about. The Russians under returning President Vladimir Putin are our friends. And Joe even revealed Sunday that if Iran closes or disrupts the Straits of Hormuz, shutting off 20% of the world's daily oil flow, Russia has agreed to consider selling Europe more of its oil. Aren't they pals?

Last week at a nuclear summit in Seoul, Obama was caught on an open mic quietly pleading with outgoing President Dmitry Medvedev for "space," especially on missile defenses, during the U.S. election campaign and assuring the Russian that he would have more "flexibility" after "my last election."

Flexibility? On defending America with missiles? Why would a loyal U.S. commander-in-chief ever want to be flexible on such things? And signal that stance ahead of negotiations to anyone, especially potential enemies? Please help me con my people.

Maybe Milt doesn’t do recreational drugs and that’s why he doesn’t trust the Russkis. It also could be that he is not working for the destruction of America the way the “obama crowd” is. Just a couple of thoughts.

Oh, they will. The “social ranks” will grow. It is a “dark force” that compromises idiots who stay stuck on stupid with their choice and are now in the tentacles of all the evils in the world.

The Third Reich is going to be nothing.

Yep, drugs are a way to keep a sharer of the stuff on the wrong side: that is why they say, “drug to a thug”, “if you are gay you cannot stop the play”, or if “you go ‘black’ you cannot go back”.

Welcome to Hotel California AmeriKKKKA.

Simple web search on Mad Vlad Putin,

For just one example, haven’t the Russians supplied most of the technical expertise and equipment for Iran’s ‘peaceful’ nuclear project?

We're naive for not trusting the Russians? There's a whole lot of projection going on lately.

I absolutely trust the Russian president to act in his country’s own best interests.

I wish I could say the same thing about the American president...

One communist trusts another communist... the old communist laughs at the young quisling communist... the old communists knows something that young barry has not yet learned... communists do not like other communists... the Vietnamese and the chicoms... the norks and almost everyone... Russia and china... they are not friends and they have never been friends. The communists war with and against one another... kind of like the muslims do. When they don't have an American to hate... they hate each other. obama will be owned by Ivan... if he is not already titled and licensed in Moscow.

Actually I trust the Russians to look after our welfare more than I trust our president. The Russians know that the best thing for them, long-term (while their population collapses), is a strong United States...even if Obama hasn’t yet figured that out.

Russia has agreed to consider selling Europe more of its oil....

Everyday I agree to consider that Biden isn't a complete idiot.

Never happens though.
