That one is easy. Mr. Obama is a Red Diaper baby. Red diaper babies grew up believing that the only reason there was trouble between the USSR and the rest of the world was the US being mean to them, if only we had seen that and engaged in sincere dialog and cooperation, all would have been well. That world still exists in Mr. Obama's mind and nothing short of a nuke going off over Omaha will change that. So no matter what or where, we have to cooperate with the Russkis.

Sorry, that was 4 sentences.
