Chuck Asay sifts the events of the day through his biblical worldview and tries to persuade readers to see things his way...that rights are given by a higher authority than the governments of men, that mankind is not the ultimate arbiter of truth and that our Constitutional Republic is worth protecting. Chuck believes ideas, not politicians rule the world. He tries to protect ideas which he thinks are good and attacks ideas he thinks bring harm.

Could someone please explain the “Reset Button”? I’ve been away too long, I guess.

Just ask a question about how the Russian Orthodox church feels about getting rid of Assad, or further making CHRISTIANS subject to danger in an out of control “revolution”. How many factions ARE out there scrambling for power. How about geography, who’s closer to the “action”, Russia, or the U.S.A.? Who has ethnic connections in the area?
Odd, how “we” across the Atlantic have so much more at “risk”????

That part of the ‘toon I understood as a reference to the “open mike” situation – but I don’t see the connection with the “reset button”; I could comment on the depiction as a whole, if I understood the point.

The Russian Federation feels anxious about the increase of the missile defence in Europe close to the Russian boundaries. NATO-led call to Russia for cooperation sounds for Russia more like the information disclosure about its own missile defence. It is obvious that Russia can not disclose this information without confidence that it will not be used against Russia. Since NATO does not furnish legal guarantee that NATO missile defence does not aim at Russia. This is the reason of NATO-Russia conflict of interests.

It was something Hilary gave to Russia as a gag gift, about improving relations.

Since when has the U.S. ever been able to tell Russia what to do?

Mis-characterization. President Obama doesn’t do this “Yo!” business. Everything he does is behind the scenes. Check out the amount of unsecured nuclear material worldwide, before and after his term…

Reagan told Russia to tear down The Berlin Wall, and they did

^The Soviet Union, was already falling apart economically, Reagan’s people knew that well, before he gave his grandstanding speech, and it was East Germany that “tore down the wall”.
Which, in Israel, we’re paying to build the walls. In Iraq, WE built the walls. Sure glad WE aren’t ’interfering" with other nations internal affairs.

@dtroutma
At that time East Germany wouldn’t go to the bathroom without Soviet approval, so Tigger is correct and you are wrong again.

No, you are the ones who are incorrect.
“In 1989, a radical series of political changes occurred in the Eastern Bloc, associated with the liberalization of the Eastern Bloc’s authoritarian systems and the erosion of political power in the pro-Soviet governments in nearby Poland and Hungary. After several weeks of civil unrest, the East German government announced on 9 November 1989 that all GDR citizens could visit West Germany and West Berlin. Crowds of East Germans crossed and climbed onto the wall, joined by West Germans on the other side in a celebratory atmosphere. Over the next few weeks, a euphoric public and souvenir hunters chipped away parts of the wall; the governments later used industrial equipment to remove most of the rest.”

Yeah, I know you claim you are right and wikipedia is wrong. Good luck convincing anyone of that, especially those of us who actually witnessed the events on TV.
