Hitler-Stalin Pact-like

Hitler's Mustache               
Pacts



Res Ipsa Loquitur

SEOUL – President Barack Obama offered a private request Monday to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev for some “space” on missile defense ahead of November’s elections.

“On all these issues, particularly on missile defense, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space,” Obama said, referring to incoming Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to a TV pool reporter who heard audio recorded by a Russian reporter who was in the room moments before the two leaders spoke to reporters after their 90-minute meeting.

“Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you,” Medvedev responded.

Okay, not quite the German-Soviet Pact of 1939 metaphor the situation begs, but close.  Obama needs time to get into position, and Medved is promised the result he wants; the end of American missile defense. Too heavy handed for you?  Okay, we're still left with Obama telling Medved (Putin) that the voters will not look kindly on it, so please keep it off the radar until after I'm reelected.

  3. One difference was that in 1939, both Hitler and Stalin knew the pact was BS and just an excuse to divide up Eastern Europe before turning on each other. I doubt if B-HO has a clue.

    PS: I though that it was still "Russia" in 1939. "Soviet" came late in the war in a bid to get a handful of etxra UN votes.

  4. Medvedev promptly offered a reply:

    "I have your "space" hanging, Barry."

  6. Be nice, Casca.

    Schools stopped teaching useless things like math, English, history, and science back in the 1980's.

  7. Now Poland is worried. They were betrayed in 1939 and 1945, and their sense of humor is lacking in this area.

  8. Is Oh-Bama the ONLY moron who doesn't think ALL microphones are "LIVE?"
