How Reset Are They?

Russia is so "reset" by our outreach that the Russian leaders are happy to accuse us of wanting to destroy them with our missile defenses and now are willing to accuse us of promoting unrest in Russia!

The Russian leadership (Medvedev and Putin) are openly criticizing anti-corruption demonstrators, and foreign (especially American) politicians who criticize the recent Russian elections. Putin is also accusing the United States of helping organize the demonstrations in Russia.

I'm starting to suspect that the whole "reset button" is just a prop.

UPDATE: Hello? Is this thing on?

Russia is pointing to the threat we pose to them and highlighting their new ICBM, called "Satan," (to be fair, that's probably just the next word in the NATO code name sequence for missiles rather than the Russian name) and their own missile defenses.

Tough room. Tough room.
