President Bush, little more than an hour after returning to Washington from the Olympics in Beijing, bluntly warned Russia that its military operations were damaging its reputation and were "unacceptable in the 21st century."

Hypocrite, hypocrite, hypocrite, hypocrite. What the hell, Bush? Really? Think you can pull that shit? I'm not through with the article yet; I'm sure Russia is being very naughty. But pot? Kettle? "Blunt" is definitely not what Bush should be going for.
"The Russian government must respect Georgia’s territorial integrity and sovereignty," he said grimly. "The Russian government must reverse the course it appears to be on.” Who let this man talk?
"These actions have substantially damaged Russia’s standing in the world, and these actions jeopardize relations with the United States and Europe." Yes, let's make it "them vs. us." Feel like you can't talk for Europe, Bush. Just a thought.
From the article: But bombs pounded the area, and residents said soldiers had told them they would not hurt civilians but would “annihilate” anyone in a uniform. By the end of the day, both the Russian and Georgian sides said the Russians had left Senaki, news agencies reported.
The Russians LEFT? No wonder we are so appalled by their behavior. Clearly you must stay in unlawfully occupied areas as long as possible.
ARGH can't finish. Later.
