Commander in Chief Obama


President Obama says scrapping the Eastern Europe missile shield will strengthen U.S. defenses against missiles. Video via RCP.

Defenseless. Indefensible.

Powerline:UPDATE: Reader Don Eyres adds:

The White House announcement about abandoning the missile defense systems in Poland and the Czech Republic will take place on September 17, 2009. Thus Obama seeks to appease the Russian bear. On September 17, 1939, the Soviet Union invaded the eastern half of Poland. The western half already was largely under Nazi control. The Obama Administration has managed to sell out the Poles on the 70th anniversary -- to the day -- of the Soviet attack. In September 1938, Neville Chamberlain surrendered Czechoslovakia's Sudentenland to Germany. His act of appeasement gained "peace in his time." Obama has just sold out the two countries in Europe that spent more time than any other under foreign occupation and dictatorship.
