Anniversary of Soviet Invasion of Poland, Obama Abandons that Nation

So pathetic from the smartest admin ever, couldn't even check the calendar to make the announcement.

The timing of the announcement is poor, coming on September 17th, the anniversary of the Soviet attack on Poland in 1939. In a country highly tuned to symbolic snubs, it matters that nobody in Washington seemed to know or care about that.The news was broken clumsily too: the Czech prime minister was woken by a brief phone call from Mr Obama the night before the decision was made public. Poland is at least gaining some promise of a beefed up American contribution to its security. The Czech Republic receives nothing, for now, in exchange for its loyalty to a controversial scheme that was supposedly a symbol of America’s commitment to the region. Atlanticist politicians in Prague feel humiliated by that.

Just pathetic, our admin abandons allies who have supported us in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and curry's favor with the likes of Iran, Putin and Chavez.
