yep
I'm on my Adderall. I'm supposed to be studying, but instead I am reading Huffington Post. Politics has always been a topic very interesting to me. Tack some humour on top of it and I'm sold.

With Russian tanks only 50km from Tbilisi on August 12, Mr Sarkozy told Mr Putin that the world would not accept the overthrow of Georgia's Government. According to Mr Levitte, the Russian seemed unconcerned. "I am going to hang Saakashvili by the balls," Mr Putin declared.
Mr Sarkozy thought he had misheard. "Hang him?" he asked.
Mr Putin replied: "Why not? The Americans hanged Saddam Hussein."
Mr Sarkozy, using the familiar tu, tried to reason with him: "Yes, but do you want to end up like (US President George W.) Bush?"
Mr Putin was briefly lost for words, then said: "Ah - you have scored a point there."

I almost feel sorry for Bush. No President wants to intentionally screw up America, I'm sure Bush had good intentions. But man, so far.. it looks like the dude is gonna go down in history as the worst President ever. At least he's helping make Obama's move into the White House as smooth as possible. Now there's something he's doing right : )
