America 'sold British nuclear secrets to Russia'
America is to give the Russians details of Britain's Trident missiles under a new treaty, according to the latest WikiLeaks revelations.
The deal, which will be signed by U.S. President Barack Obama next week, will see Moscow given information about the missiles, which are manufactured and maintained in America.
The Daily Telegraph claims the Americans used the details of British nuclear secrets as a 'bargaining chip' to persuade Russia to sign the key treaty.

Funny we hear nothing in the American media about any of this... I sent this article to some of my Democrat family members and am eagerly waiting their response....

With this administration, it doesn't surprise me at all. Nothing but a clown car filled with amateurs running this country.

Remember Obama said in the state of the union that our image in the world has been fixed.
I think our allies will feel better once he is out of office.

Suprised
I am suprised Obama hasn't been bumped off by the CIA, like JFK was.

Huh? 
I presume you're kidding? Do you have anything of actual relevance to add or do you just blurt out whatever stupid shit pops into your head?

Like I said I presumed you're kidding but it was hard to tell without something to indicate it was a joke.
That said it wasn't really funny. So I'd submit I wasn't the jerk.

Well
Everyone's humor is subjective. What you find funny I perhaps won't. We are after all individuals' and entitled to our own opinion. So without saying too much we can both occupy the same space and be of differing perspectives without arguing over who is right or wrong. Cheers.

Everyone's humor is subjective, and I don't really find anything off limits to humor, but at least give me a hint that you're kidding...that's what smilies are for.
That way I can chalk it up to humor (even if really dumb) instead of someone's tinfoil being wrapped a bit too tight.

I don't think there is a long term ally of this country that this current administration wouldn't sell down the river to further their agenda. I hate Chris Matthews but I'll give him credit when he said on air the other night that he was ashamed to be an American because of the way our current administration has treated Mubarak, a close ally for 30 years.

Ok so let me get this straight; We throw our closest ally under the bus, betraying their national security at the same time we are missing Russia's ass? Yeah nothing wrong here people, move along

Not trying to justify the giving of any nuclear information to russia.
But that information is American not British, they just happen to use the same system so they're thrown into the same pool. Lockheed is an American company out of Colorado not someplace in the UK

Just another way of proving that America is harmless to her enemies, ruthless to her friends.

And Lockheed seems to be headquartered in Maryland, not Colorado.
