Obama Unable To Charm Russians

Russian leaders are not interested in nuclear disarmament that include them and their allies disarming. Russia is not interested in letting former Soviet republics join NATO. And Russia is not mesmerized by Obama's so-called charisma. Therefore, little was done during Obama's talks with Russian leaders.

Barack Obama wants to press a reset button that will suddenly have Russia and the United States be buddy-buddy. . . reset button? When have we ever been buddies with the Russians? Besides, just because Obama is trying to make America a spitting image of the now defunct Soviet Union, it doesn't mean Putin and Medvedev will suddenly coming running up, throw their arms around him, and call Barry "Comrade."

Barry Hussein Obama and Dimitri Medvedev did come to an agreement on the basic terms of a treaty that is designed to reduce the number of warheads and missiles to the lowest levels since the early years of the cold war. An enemy like Russia is always willing to make little deals if they believe it will give them the opportunity to position themselves, while also enabling the opposition to weaken willingly.

Russia sees this as an opportunity. As America follows the path to collapse, all they must do is wave, smile, agree on just about anything, and watch America crumble.
