Smooth move, madame secretary
Russia is upset that we're putting a new missile defense system in Europe (Poland, I think?). Supposedly it's to protect Europe from a nuclear Iran. So this is Condoleezza Rice's response to Russia:
NYT: “The idea that somehow 10 interceptors and a few radars in Eastern Europe are going to threaten the Soviet strategic deterrent is purely ludicrous, and everybody knows it,” Ms. Rice said, slipping inadvertently into cold war terminology with her reference to the Soviet Union.
Inadvertently?!? Isn't this supposedly her area of expertise? Either she's truly not that bright or she actually spends her time thinking about Russia in cold war terms. Or both.
