Should Obama Have Sent Russia's President a Secret Letter?

"bad idea"
Good fellow Obama, is similar on the fox. Obama uses all methods to agree. It is More than such presidents to America and problems would be less (100 %). I to you shall fairly tell with ours better to agree, in fact we always carry out pieces of paper which sign (time has signed it is necessary to execute, in a brain at many Russians - will of the Kremlin the law). When America stored nuclear rockets which should destroy under the contract (I do not remember which), we(russians) were cut with the rockets (fools). Fortunately almost all agreements are limited on time. I live in Russia and did not see and did not hear about " artful plans on capture of all world " (jotas it would be interesting). And that up to Putin that it still the good child, he constrains such dogs hating the West (old-kind communists, nationalists, radicals, etc.) that he also thanks should tell. I do not understand as you can abuse Obama which simply tries to help of his country :( .
I like America and the Europe and since recent time their some politicians.
secret letter to an enemy?
Putin is our enemy because Putin chooses to be. Framing Uncle Sam as a threat, as does the Ayatollah and Hugo Chavez...Putin too, gives them a rationale to be virtual dictators. Dictators need rationales in faux democracies. So, Vladimir is our enemy, even though we don't recognize it. Send a secret letter to him? No. I hope Obama has learned his lessons, namely Putin will try to undermine him and make him look bad, and there is no such thing as a secret letter.
Passing notes in school?
Every day I am amazed at how ill prepared our Jr Senator is for the "real world". The more scary part to me is the American voters who put these clowns in office. Trust Russia? They're simply waiting for Obama/Pelosi to finish what the Communists have always believed: America will crumble under it's own stupidity. We've got to ride this out for at least two years.
To reiterate: God help US!
PS...As bad as Carter was, comparing him to Obama is harsh.
Obama's Secret Letter
How naive can you get? Obama's childish behavior smacks of "Carterism" and a sellout. Who can trust Russia?
Obama "the talker"
My how quickly policies change. Our illustrous Prez before being elected was going to be our next " great communicator" and resolve all our problems in the middle east , never mind Russia. For some unknow reason he thinks he can use Russia as a part of his foreign policy team. His communications strategy has been quickly abandoned along with his claim of going to be transparent in his presidency " by writing his "secret letter" to Russia.. This irresponsible action should have all of us shaking in our boots. This guy is Naive with a capital "N". We have in Obama a guy who has not a clue as it relates to Foreign or Domestic policy. His Harvard education is showing and may the good Lord protect us. He is getting more Jimmy "Carterish" with each tick of the clock. Sadly, I must tell you "hang in there" you AIN'T seen nothing yet !!!
Trust the Russians?
It seems the "hope"ful Obama administration is experiencing realpolitik. Who was it that said, "there are no permanent alliances, only permanent interests"? What the Bush administration somewhat clumsily pointed out was that we can't count on anyone else, that's why we went alone to war. We need to hew to our own interests and if Russia wants to help, that's fine. But never trust them.
The Letter
The whole thing, amounted to just about nothing........
Russia's Pres. Medvedev is still a little prick and Putin still runs things
Obama has done nothing that the Bush administration has not already tried with the Russian's
Obama's big campaign stumping about sitting down with these troubled leaders amounts to about a hill of beans (nothing).....So that being said, nothing has really changed.......
