Which leads me to the second issue........why do we want to support a president who dares to attack a province that has explicitly stated for 20 years they want nada to do with GA? And he dares to do it at the doorstep of the Russian bear.

I think the move was foolish. Russia reacted - and probably over-reacted.

Not necessarily. We would have done the same thing if positions were reversed.......Russia playing kiss kiss with Mexico. Putin had been warning for months that the US needs to chill its activities on the border. Bush ignored those warnings and continued to support an idiot president of GA. Russia's move was more about giving a heads up to the US than protecting Russian peacekeepers and S. Ossetians.
