Taking a "Holy Shit! We are all gonna die" approach is equally unwise. So tell me, the most recent threats against the US came in the form of domestic aircraft. How would this missile defense shield have protected us against them if it was actually functional?
Why do you think the next threat will come from terrorists hijacking airliners? It is far more likely it will come from either N.Korea or Iran. Evaluating likely threats and taking appropriate preventive action is the job of the president. A job that is woefully beyond the capability of the current incumbent.

You're asking about one type of threat in the context of another. I don't understand why that would be relevant.Not now, but they are developing and making good progress. Taking an ostriche apporach to that is not wise.no evidence to suggest that Iran has long-range abilities anywhere in there future - like building an air conditioner in antarctica "just in case" - it was a foolish waste of money and Bush alienated most of the world by bull-headedly hammering it through.
Good riddance - yet another good call from Obama
BTW OZZ - you come up with that section of the constitution pertaining to defense of foriegn lands yet ????

The tanks rolled into Georgia because of a series of events that were spurred by this foolish proposal and the rejection of the Russians offer to participate. Bush was rattling their cage cold war style and courting Poland for NATO membership - sort of like Russia courting Mexico for the Warsaw Pact.
The Polish folks paid the price for Bush's idiocy - Obama is doing what he does - mending fences and finding common ground

I don't think that. Is your problem a reading one or a comprehension one?

My problem is expecting a reasonable answer from people incapable of providing it.
If you dont think that then why did you ask that asinine question?

sigh.... alienating most of the world geesh if you mean the countries that were steeped in corruption of the food for oil scam yes I am glad he alienated those countries, why were they so angry about Iraq? because they were no longer getting the bids from the UN on 5$ to 10$ barrels of oil...all on the backs of the US soldiers there during operation southern and northern watch.
and if you change policy and get nothing in return it is a failure. russia does not want a missile defence in poland or czech but those countries do. but Russia will continue to do what it wants and now and now they have more sway in erupe because they are monopolizing energy. to withdraw from that area is foolish on the assumption if we do this you will not sell weapons to Iran or supply them oil/gas. Obama is backing us into a corner with no barganing chips. are you all blind to this, meanwhile we bicker over health care reform and money for tit and tat. big deals are in play that can and will affect us in the future.
