		<description>With Hilary Clinton being considered as the Sec. of State,  and the Stalinist / Leninist / Democrat party shaping foreign policy, the only question in my mind is - will BO petition for us to be annexed to China, Russia, Mexico  or Iran, as a suburb?  Perhaps whichever one offers him the biggest slice of the pie?</description>

		<description>Hmmmmmm.  Charismatic Senator, with a glamourous wife, wins the Presidency, and the world is full of hopenchange.  Meets with the Russian oligarch, without preconditions, within six months.  Unmitigated disaster, which the newbie characterizes as &quot;I&#039;ve got a terrible problem if he thinks I&#039;m inexperienced and have no guts.&quot; Six months later, international challenge, with no response.  Six months after that, nuclear missiles sixty miles off our shores.

His biographer goes on to say, &quot;He now needed to convince (the oligarch) that he could not be pushed around, and the best place currently to make U.S. power credible seemed to be in (a war zone).&quot;

I am sure all of you can recognize the parallels, and make the necessary substitutions.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;In a speech in Washington, Mr Medvedev said that a new US administration might be able to address what he described as a lack of “necessary mutual trust”.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I seem to remember hearing about a man who beat the Russians almost two decades ago, bringing an end to the Cold War. I also recall he was frequently quoted as saying: &quot;Trust, but verify.&quot;

I hope the new administration shares the policy.</description>
