To answer your other question about Iraq!

I don't trust Putin or the Russians. Count me in the Dick Cheney camp. Putin has consolidated what used to be the old KGB in his control.

Remember the Russian diplomats stayed forever in their embassy after being warned to get out. I have always thought that they were hiding Saddam and that he was hurt in the first bombing. Why would the embassy need to fly in a doctor? Then all of a sudden they hurried up and left and complained their motorcade was shot at. That whole deal didn't pass the smell test. Russian scientist I believe know exactly where the WMD's are at because they were working for the Iraqi's.

When Russia threw in completely with Chirac -- that did it for me! Now very little mention of Russia occurs -- don't think relations between Pres Bush and Putin are very good.

Also wonder if they are not helping stir up things in the Middle East!

How is that for tinfoil hat time?

I have never trusted the Russian government and I never will. Putin is a wolf in sheep's clothing. They are anti-Bush, anti-America, no matter what lies they say to the contrary.
