That, in fact, was cancelled by Obama in 2009  

Defence Minister Bogdan Klich was among the dignitaries officially welcoming the US Patriot missile battery in Poland, Wednesday, along with around 100 American troops, stationed in the northern town of Morag.

The ceremony, at 13.00 CET, Wednesday, was attended by U.S. Ambassador to Poland, Lee Feinstein and director of U.S. Army logistics operations in Europe, Brigadier General Mark Bellini.

"Placing the Patriot batteries in Poland makes the country more secure and contributes to Poland's cooperation with the U.S," Minister Klich told the delegates at the ceremony.  Klich said that it is important that American troops will be deployed in Poland. "The more America and Europe in Poland, the more Poland in American and European politics," he said.

The US 5th Battalion arrived from the U.S. base in Germany at the weekend. Since then troops have been unloading and assembling the Patriots, the stationing of which in Poland was initially agreed between Warsaw and Washington during the previous Bush administration. The details were finalized when the two sides signed the Supplemental Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) in February this year.

Strengthening short-and medium-range air defense was a condition put on the negotiations on Poland's participation in the US central European missile defense program, subsequently cancelled by Barack Obama in September last year.

And

In September 2009, U.S. President Barack Obama scrapped a plan agreed to a year earlier by his predecessor George W. Bush to install a controversial anti-missile shield system in Poland and the Czech Republic.

Under that now-shelved deal, the U.S. also pledged to help upgrade Poland's national air defenses with Patriot missiles and has stuck to that part of the agreement.

During our 2010 Democratic gubernatorial primary race between then-Honolulu Mayor Mufi Hannemann and Congressman Neil Abercrombie, the mainstream Honolulu media made it very plain that they preferred Hannemann, parroting the Sen. Inouye-led Democratic establishment. In the week prior to the primary, the newspapers and TV stations kept posting articles and data suggesting that the race was too close to call. Nate Silver's 538 column at the New York Times, picking up the local mainstream polls, was also predicting a nailbiter.

Meanwhile, one online local media source, Honolulu Civil Beat, published their polling data, and their writers strongly suggested that the mainstreamers either didn't know what they were talking about or were being very disingenuous with the public. According to Civil Beat, it wasn't close at all, that Abercrombie was up by 20 points and even further, was killing Hannemann in Honolulu, his home turf.

The mainstream media several prominent local officials immediately lit into Civil Beat, poo-pooing their polling as an outlier, and reaffirming their own "comprehensive" analysis that the race was close, and one anchorman (our local Fox News affiliate, natch) went so far as to predict that Hannemann would win.

(Our own internal campaign polling data at Abercrombie HQ that final week actually mirrored the Civil Beat poll, and we were quietly anticipating a landslide. But we stayed out of the public media polling debate altogether, thinking that if Sen. Inouye and the local Democratic political establishment were that delusional, why intefere when they're about to suffer a very public pratfall?)
