Midknight Review -- new and revised: Russia in the Ukraine proves the most stark reality of all: The failure and feckless nature of Obama's pretense at foreign policy. No wonder the man wants to "lead from behind."

<<< This plastic toy was actually given to the Russian president, a puppet of Putin's. Even this "reset" symbol was a mistake - more a symbol of the foolishness of the Obama/Hillary "leadership" (she was Secretary of State, at the time) and the ill-advised reality of their work together, from the disasters in Afghanistan and Benghazi to the criminal meddling into Egypt, Libya and Syria. That button was the fitting beginning of the failure of this Administration. "Reset" in English did not read "resent" in Russian, as intended. Instead, it read "over charged." Geeeeesh. !!

A year ago, there was a rising fear that the US and Russia were on the verge of a new Cold War. Today the relationship seems to have gone 180. The US and Russia are now on the verge of signing a new nuclear disarmament agreement and look increasingly in sync on Iran. Yesterday, Obama met directly with Russian President Dmitri Medvedev on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific summit in Singapore where both leaders said negotiations on a new START agreement were close to completion. Medvedev also expressed his displeasure with Iran, giving another indication that Russia may back Obama should the Iranians reject the nuclear deal on the table. Following the meeting and Medvedev pronouncements, Obama concluded that “the reset button has worked.” (text taken from the stealth Communist "Think Progress," a laughable title for this Leftist publication.)

Editor's notes: I write "laughable" because this bunch of know nothing Marxist puppets ran to the first mic, available to tout the success of Hussein Obama, as he "reset" the relationship between Russia and the US. GW Bush was the fall guy, but no one othered to answer this question: Exactly when when did the relationship between Russia and the United States go from good to bad . . . . I am asking, when was it good? The theme, "reset" was as bogus as the declaration of victory, and, today, 4 plus years later, the outrageousness of this laughable assertion has grown from "non-existent" to "beyond dangerous."

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."

Imagine, our foreign policy with Russia began by buying a plastic toy. First time ever, a president of the US decided to use a toy to further his foreign policy . . . . and Hillary thought this was a good idea, apparently. Fools indeed !!!
