Default Bye-bye INF treaty?

On Fri, 16 Feb 2007 14:07:32 GMT, in a place far, far away, "Greg D.
Moore \(Strider\)" made the phosphor
on my monitor glow in such a way as to indicate that:

Remember how I said pulling out of the ABM treaty was a dumb move,
because the Russians would think that any treaty we had with them wasn't
worth the paper it was written on?


No, but I can imagine you saying such a silly thing. We didn't
abrogate the treaty. We withdrew, which was completely within the
bounds of the treaty.


Your imagination really must be working over time. He never said we
abrogated it.


It was implied. Or at least I (reasonably, I think) inferred it,
based on the context.
