Didn't I hear that Obama had alienated our allies so badly that we couldn't get anything done?

But we keep getting more and more things done multilaterally...hmmmm.....somebody blowing smoke, methinks....

The U.S. has reached an agreement with the other four permanent members of the U.N. Security Council on a sanctions regime against Iran. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the draft resolution, which China and RUSSIA had long resisted, would be presented to the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday.

>>"hit the reset button in our relationship with the Russians."

What does that mean? It sounds more like a slogan than an achievement. Does it have anything to do with recently arresting that ring of Russian spies?<<

There was that small matter of a new nuclear arms reduction treaty a couple of months ago. That seems tangible.

Were you wondering about achievements since then?
