Obama has decided to drop the missile defense shield in Eastern Europe.

I didn’t follow this too closely, but I’m a little shocked that they are completely abandoning it.

That being said, it seems like it might be a good thing as no one seemed to actually like the idea (except for Bush).

Also, while I understand the role of the sole-superpower brings great responsibility, I’m not so sure that responsibility should extend to protecting every inch of the world.

Now, WHO will be held accountable for the $150 billion of our taxes that have been “gifted” to Lockheed and other defense contractors over the past two decades in pursuit of a boondoggle that failed every significant test??

Maybe — No one??
