Valerie Plame?
Are we back on her now? Talk to spongy or stw about that shit.
bobby...even if i bought the kremlin`s line...as you seem to have....at what point do they decide they`ve made their point?...they`ve gone way past w.ossetia and are basically "targeting" civilian areas and taking over cities........
as you know,i hate to cut and paste...but please read this....

you leftists only are anti-war when it comes to the u.s. defending itself and its interests around the world.....when other leftists/socialists/communists engage in war, you turn a willing blind eye and make excuses...
this article was written saturday and i don`t think even colonel peters had any idea just how overwhelming the force that the russians had at the ready really was....
where peters was incorrect was not relaizing that georgia has NO chance facing this amount of brute force...
it`s ridiculous...
now i`m waiting for the "iraq" card to be drawn...well,exactly how many u.n. resolutions did the russians propose before invading georgia?...
did the russians even address the u.n.?...of course not...that`s not the russian bear`s style..they only use the u.n. to confound democracies...
i talked to a friend thats very savvy about geopolitical issues and i mentioned that the left was extremely quiet about this war....
he said,"they won`t be silent for long...bet your ass they`ll be supporting russia"....
he` was right as rain...
wake the f-ck up...
It's nice to see that you've turned into an expert on a country that you first heard about 5 days ago. (Where exactly is West Ossentia, anyway?)
If you may, show me where I'm supporting Russia in my post - I just think that it's insane to think that we have enough oil here to provide any significant benefit, but now you want us to drill to supply Europe with their oil needs, too. Then you go into a post on what you think I believe as if you've already figured out every argument.
I'm not an expert on this, but I've spent time in Tbilisi, spent time with Georgians and have seen US troops on the streets. I used to own shares in an oil company there whose biggest risks was the events of the past 5 days, so I'm a bit up on what's happened over the past 4 years.
In that time, Georgia has captured Russian troops (who later were returned), have had a Military official publicly state that Russia wouldn't have the guts to come down to the Caucasus' to wage war due to all of the problems they have in Chechnya and have forcefully stifled demonstrations in the streets. The President was elected with 96% votes for(Saddam-like numbers). They've openly been trained by US forces and have attempted to join NATO, whose sole goal was to combat the Soviet Union. They became a democracy separated from Russia, but won't let Abkhazia nor South Ossentia have their own democracy or choose their own leadership. They also went into S. Ossentia with force to stop an uprising. And in all this time, with all the Russian warnings, Moscow has stood by and have nothing overt. They bring troops into stop the Georgian forces and they're greeted with news proclamations that Georgia has shot down 4 Russian planes. Soo . . . . they take out Georgia's radar and then their airport.
That said. . . Georgia is the side of democracy (kind of) and the side that is our ally. The Russian response has been over the top. They don't need words from Europe showing their support - they need air coverage and they need a show of defense by whatever international force will step up. We're just a bit strapped right now - which is one of the moonbats concerns from Day one.
