King Obama

During a televised meet with Russian President Dmitri Medvedev, on Monday 26 March, President Obama said that he would have “more flexibility” to deal with controversial issues such as missile defense, but incoming Russian President Vladimir Putin needs to give him “space.” What Obama didn't realize was that his microphone was on, transmitting and recorded by the media.


The Conversation:

President Obama: "On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space."

President Medvedev: "Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you."

Obama: "This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility."

Medvedev: "I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir."

Deputy National Security Adviser for strategic communications, Ben Rhodes, explained in circles trying to negate the damage down by Obbama exposing his arrogance, saying words to the effect that "there is room for the U.S. and Russia to reach an accommodation, but there is a lot of rhetoric around this issue in both countries."

Another idiot from the Administration was reported by ABC news as saying "This is a political year in which the Russians just had an election, we’re about to have a presidential and congressional elections — this is not the kind of year in which we’re going to resolve incredibly complicated issue like this. So there’s an advantage to pulling back and letting the technical experts work on this as the president has been saying.”

Maybe Obama did know the microphone was on,...maybe he just can't help boast about his belief that he will be elected again. Maybe there is another plan all together. And all this from a President who believes he can act without Congress.
