President Obama Refuses to Credit America with Winning the Cold War - Video 7/7/09

President Barack Obama is refusing to acknowledge the central role of the United States in winning the Cold War and bringing down the Soviet Union. This is video of Fox News' Major Garrett reporting that Obama received a one-hour lecture from Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin on the Cold War.

Later when he talked with Garrett, Garrett pressed him on his statement in a speech that the Cold War ended not because of any one nation but because of the actions of many nations and because the people of Eastern Europe and Russia decided it would end peacefully. Of course, Obama completely ignores the fact that without American pressure for more than forty years, conditions would have never allowed for the people of Eastern Europe to rise up. This President cannot bring himself to praise his own country or to even acknowledge the great victory won by the United States over the tyranny of Marxism. Sadly, he seems to be more at ease with former KGB thugs in Russia than he is with the proud history of his own nation.
