and we have spent many hours in pleasant conversation, but I think he's off base on this one. The first time ever, as far as I know!

The Georgian situation was scripted by the Russians from soup to nuts.

If these Ossetians were so abused by Georgians, why did it take Russia 17 years to respond to their plight?

The Bush Administration was no doubt involved and provided its usual incompetent assistance. Saakashvili walked into a Russian trap. Now after nearly 2 weeks word comes out that Ms Rice warned Saakashvili not to "provoke" the Russians. The Bush Administration seems to have waited to figure out who the victors were before taking sides.

Just because the Bush people are low-life liars, does not mean the Russians are telling the truth.
