"President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev have approved a landmark arms accord aimed at cutting the nuclear arsenals of both countries.
The White House says the two spoke by phone Friday morning and gave their final agreement to the treaty language.
A White House statement says the treaty will limit both sides to 1550 warheads each about 30% fewer than in the previous agreement.
It also limits each to 700 deployed missles and bombers."


Good news and I look forward to the signing next month. Hopefully we will be able to get somewhere with North Korea and get Israel to cooperate in the peace process. Nice job though.

12. Oh, please! All of the supposed "anti-Obama" are strictly concerned with policy

For this policy wonk, the reduction in nuclear arms was a truly major accomplishment.

6. And the hits just keep coming.

Little wonder the Republicans are all doing their best Linda Blair imitations. It's just too damn much 24/7 and they can't comprehend the man or keep up. Gotta wonder, though, how they're going to spin this as a negative.

Shoot, I'm having a hard time imagining any single President/person managing so many issues at once. He's freaking amazing.
