I am willing to meet these guys like ted half way. Problem is that when an international crisis arises they knee jerk their way to the anti-US position no matter what even if it means they ally with the new Czar in Moscow. With Ted it manifested itself in his South Ossetian obscession and labeling the GA democracy as neocon. Its how they justify their pro-palestine position for example.

You pointed out rightly that the US set a bad example in iraq although the two governments--iraq and ga are not even close.

There is that pesky collection of UN resolutions from the one World government body against Iraq and the fact the US adopted a use of force agreement in plain view and telegraphed our intent for months ahead of time. The Russians acted alone, without any authority and by complete surprise under one mans order. Some would call that a subtle difference others with far less brain cells would call them equivalent. :-)


Ha! You mean the coalition of the unwilling. The US had to beg, borrow and steal to get nations to join us in Bush's little Iraq adventure.
