They are full on taunting America through Georgia.

This has taken me by surprise. I never believed Russia to be an ally, but I didn’t really expect them to full on take out an ally and taunt us about it.

And apparently we are to do nothing. In Russia’s eyes, that makes us look weak. In thier mindset, America appears afraid of Russia.

An interesting comment. It raises the very interesting question of what's really behind the Russian action. I think there's probably something else afoot here ... and it probably involves Georgia only in a peripheral sense.

Of course, I have no idea what the true Russian motives might be ... but (unlike us) they're chess players, and this is just an opening move.

What’s BUSH waiting for. He should have left the Olympics the minute the Russians entered Georgia. Its time to start talking to the Turks and firing up some American Planes over Georgia.

Tell the Russians that they can protect Russians, but we and the Turks will help out with keeping the peace in Georgia and insure that Georgia’s sovereignty is maintained.
