"JFK did a pretty good job with the crisis, but in the end, this was a blunder. You don't reward behavior that you disapprove of"

Oops! The president of Georgia has had his first full brush with the incompetent Bush administration, led by the grossly incompetent Condi Rice. Apparently, Rice sold Georgia down the river and the president of Georgia ain't happy. Rumor has it the Russians will be allowed to stay in Georgia for the foreseeable future. McCain was last seen flapping his arms around like a decapitated turkey.

Bottom line: The American people have to get incompetents like Bush, Rice, Cheney, McCain et al out of power. They are truly amateurs when it comes to this stuff.

Rice says draft truce protects Georgia

By MATTHEW LEE – 45 minutes ago

TBILISI, Georgia (AP) — Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili said Friday he signed a cease-fire agreement with Russia, which protects the former Soviet republic's interests despite concessions to Moscow.

He said he will "never, ever surrender" in showdown with Russia, and he accused the West of inviting Russian aggression.


Saakashvili make his remarks with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice nearby and hours after President Bush accused Russia of "bullying and intimidation" against Georgia. Bush said the people there chose freedom and "we will not cast them aside."
