OK, someone please tell me what's *really* going on. I've seen this story on RW blogs lately

and want to know if any of it is true or is it distortion of the facts?

I'm talking about Obama prepared to share missile defense secrets with Russia. Aside from FOX, I haven't heard the MSM mention this.

That's where I'd get my facts, rather than Fox. Seriously, Fox lies.

...he would share "Star Wars" missile defense technology with the Soviets back in the 1980's?

Why yes he did:

"In Prague today, Bush said, "I look forward to having conversations with President Putin, not only at the G8, but in the United States when he comes over. And my message will be, Vladimir — I call him Vladimir — that you shouldn't fear a missile defense system." Bush followed up on the offer to collaborate with Russia on missile defense that his Secretary of Defense Robert Gates made recently in Moscow. Bush said he'd tell Putin, "Please send your generals over to see how such a system would work. Send your scientists. Let us have the ability to discuss this issue in an open forum where we'll be completely transparent."

So ask your rw blogs if boosh was also a commie traitor.
