For Republicans it's 1992, not 2012.

• Previously Mitt Romney has said that Russia is our number one geopolitical foe.
• Today Fox News' Liz Cheney said that Obama apologized for Czechoslovakia; too bad there hasn't been a Czechoslovakia since the split to the Czech Republic and Slovakia in 1993.
• Four years ago, John McCain did the same thing, too.
• This past April, one of Mitt's foreign policy advisers, John Lehman, complained that the US hadn't done anything to stop the Soviets from moving into the Arctic.
• Another adviser, Pierre Prosper, also said that the US abandoned missile defense sites in...Czechoslovakia.

The key here, is that Republicans are still keyed into the old USSR in how they think about global threats.  To Republicans, it's 1992 not 2012.

These aren't slips per say, but people wearing blinders.
