BTW, here’s the relevant exchange between Obama and Russian President Medvedev from the article linked above:
President Obama: On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved but it’s important for him to give me space.I will transmit this information to Vladimir. Weird. Comes across as something out of a Le CarrĂ© novel. Kind of makes Medvedev look like Obama’s…handler, doesn’t it?
President Medvedev: Yeah, I understand. I understand your message about space. Space for you…
President Obama: This is my last election. After my election I have more flexibility.
President Medvedev: I understand. I will transmit this information to Vladimir.
Elsewhere: Gee, it’s like birds of a feather or something.
