To equate what we did in Iraq to what Russia did to Georgia is so idiotic it should automatically disqualify whoever said it. Saddam Hussein was a vicious dictator who was hell bent on acquiring weapons of mass destruction, invading neighboring countries, ignoring UN resolution and supporting terrorism. Georgia was a peaceful Democracy. I can’t even believe O’Bambi would be naive enough to try to make this point.

How about that.

It really doesn’t get any better than that, does it?

Let’s review the bidding.

Iraq invades Kuwait, we drive Iraq out.

Iraq funds Al Qaeda, and gives them a place to train.

Al Qaeda wipes out 3000 people in NYC in one day and adds untold billions in additional costs to the average commercial air flight, not to mention the other economic damage.

We then re-invade Iraq, and Afghanistan, in a bid to wipe out Al Qaeda.

But, we’re the invaders.

The Russians invade Georgia while their top people are on vacation (why you would go on vacation whilst the Russians amassed troops on your N. border is beyond me).

Recall that the Chechyans are separatists too, yet somehow the S. Ossetian’s aspirations of living free from Georgia have a bit more merit.

OK, rant complete. The guy succeeded in doing what the RNC could not - make McCain electable.

There is simply no safe alternative.

"...the United States, he said, should set a better example on that front, too."

Hey Barium, did you ever hear that the U.S. went to the U.N. prior to sending troops into Iraq? No? Well, I didn't think so Mr. Community Organizer.

Obambi: “The Philippines, Midway Islands, etc. were sovereign territories of Imperial Japan. Normandy and Sicily were sovereign territories of the Third Reich. We should have left them alone, and avoided provoking their legitimate fascist rulers”.

the United States, should set a better example on that front, too

We had no business invading France on June 6, 1944.

As if there is ANY comparison between Iraq and Georgia... OR, the US and Neo-Soviet Russia for that matter...

Apparently not satisfied with his plunging poll numbers, Obama wants to try to to turn it into a bungee jump.

One of the problems with Iraq (in my opinion) is that the U.S. DIDN’T charge in. I remember watching resolution after resolution. Inspectors in...inspectors out. Deadlines come....deadlines gone. We also had a “coalition of the willing” when we went in. What does Russia’s coalition consist of?

Clinton attacks 5 sovereign nations without UN approval or Congressional approval: Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq.

Bush overthrows the Saddam regime over breach of surrender agreement throughout the 1990s and into the 21st century and does so with full Congressional approval. Bush overthrows the Taliban and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan who attacked the USA.

There is NO comparison. Bush had purpose.

Russia invades countries and enslaves the people.

The U.S. intervenes in countries and liberates the people.

Remember the free elections in Iraq, and the voters proudly showing the American news media their purple fingers after they cast their vote?

Does anyone believe the Russians will allow a free election in Georgia?

So Barry, if Russia CAN because we should NOT have, then are you saying two wrongs make a right?
