Hillary Pushes Reset Button Back To The Future

In a recent meeting with Russian foreign minister Sergey Lavrov, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton presented him with a button that was to represent resetting relations with the two countries to an earlier time. Was the reset button faulty and it reset the relationship time period to circa 1962? Now instead of the Cuban missile crisis we have the possibilty of Russian bombers, capable of carrying nuclear tipped cruise missiles, being stationed at Cuban and Venezuelan air bases. What possible reason would Russia want to place nuclear capable bombers so close to the United States?

Seems that Russia wants to be the test that Joe Biden was predicting. Not to be outdone China has taken an aggressive stance toward the U.S. Navy. Chinese ships managed to disrupt routine operations that were being conducted by the U.S. ocean surveillance ship Impeccable in international waters. Could this be yet another test for the Obama Administraion?

How will Barack Obama handle these provocations? Will he exhibit bold leadership and stand up against these threats or will he wither in liberal blather.

Do us a favor Madame Secretary, the next time you travel abroad keep the gag gifts at home.
