The Russians can ignore the West because of two things: they hold the veto in the UN Security Council and most important, they have nuclear weapons. Nobody and I mean nobody - shoves The Bear around!

The U.S. isn’t just standing by idly and isn’t just making statements.

Already President Bush has airlifted 2,000 Georgian troops on U.S. planes from Iraq into Georgia.

Already the U.S. has delivered aid to Georgia.

Already the U.S. has convinced the Ukraine to pressure Russia over its Black Sea fleet and rented port.

Already the U.S. has cancelled its joint U.S.-Russian naval exercises this month.

Already the U.S. and Poland have reached an anti-missile defensive shield agreement that is mightily opposed by Russia.

Wheels are in motion. Responses are on-going.

So FREAKING STOP PARROTING THE LIBERAL NEWS MEDIA MYTH THAT WE “can’t do anything” and “Aren’t doing anything” about Russia’s aggression in Georgia.

Do I make myself clear? Have I listed enough rebuttals of the liberal spin, or do I need more?

One thing is clear. The West will not be building pipelines from the Caspian Sea that bypass Russia anytime soon. And that is what Putin intended to accomplish with this action. Putin played everybody including Georgia.

“CEASE FIRE” and run for your life. Very sad over there.
