A Possible 'Red Flag' of a 'Red Flag'?

[TRANCOSO]

Russia has a weapon deal with Iran. In exchange for the cancelling of the SDI shield in Poland, Russia will use its influence to keep Iran from becoming a nuclear threat to it's neighbours & western Europe?

Hi TRANCOSO,

It was unfortunate for Obama that the shield bases were cancelled on the anniversary of Russias' invasion of Poland. Russia was against the bases being built in its' neighbours' country.

Could the possible GE and present Total contracts in Russia have anything to do with the throwing Poland under the bus? After all, we saw how dirty politics (have we ever seen clean politics?!) work with the UK releasing the supposed terrorist a few weks ago to secure oil deals.

In politics, you don't make a decision just for one reason. There's normally lots behind the apparent act that we see on TV.

Best regards,

Steve

Too busy worried about my own survival to care about what the kiddies in the sandbox are up to.

Though if Israel makes any rash moves, the pie is immediately on their faces.

Obama's consolidation of power continues.

The first ever US President to chair the Security Council.
While the US troops are abroad, the blue helmets man the checkpoints....
Probably paranoid but hey, things are moving very fast

People are complaining now about Obama's "consolidation of power" but the very same thing happened during the Bush administration (Cheney's power grab, USA Patriot Act).

They've really got to stop acting like Obama is the only person to do this stuff. It makes it much easier to paint him in a negative light when they ignore the facts.

As for what Anchor said, I'm not so sure of Obama anymore. More like 50/50 on most of his actions/policies.
