- What is really funny to me is it takes steel to provide armies...and Russia has been buy ours up. Googling "russia steel mills U.S." is an education...
For instance, that oh-so-patriotic company The Carlyle Group just sold the John Maneely Co. to Russian steelmaker Novolipetsk Steel (http://www.tigerdroppings.com/rant/messagetopic.asp?p=9341116).
It is great, is it not, when our leaders bet your future on their assumption that everybody anywhere in the world is motivated solely by wealth accumulation, like they are? - Reply to this comment

lolll...I used to think that way - and then Clinton and his corporate and Republican backers set us on the road to becoming a banana republic with their "free" (like, you will be free of jobs, and the corporations will be free to exploit the cheapest labor and least environmentally regulated countries they can find at will) trade policies.
And this President continued Big Oil''s policies of ensuring that we remained addicted...
The result? Things we need for day to day survival must travel by ship or air to us...and our potential enemies have lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of missiles...
Two oceans is not enough, with our logistical vulnerabilities. - Reply to this comment
- Condoleeza Rice:,,,,"We''re not certain at
this time, but we are evaluating what
information we have indicating what appears
to be 2''000 in-flight rockets imaging on
some of our radar sites.
But not on enough of them to render a decision.
So we''re now repositioning our satellites to
to afford us a more commulative account
of the situation before us." - Reply to this comment

- Right now, Russia is working on some aspirational goals in terms of setting a proper time horizon for withdrawal from Georgia. They will not set a date for surrender.

-what''s so incredible. It was about time Liar935Bush ordered the dumping of Georgia. It''s not a strategically important location, and that idiot called Suck4cashvili, is rightly idiot. Lia935Bush ought hire him as a lawn-mower boy in the WhiteHouse backyard and monkey impersonator for Laura, without changing nothing for the Georgians. Georgians would lose nor gain nothing! - Reply to this comment
- Somebody should tell Condolizza Rice that this is not 2003. We are not going to take any more of her lies about weapons of mass destruction or anything else. Just make that horrible thing, Condo, go away.

this from AP - last sentence is a winger!
AP) It was a claim that could have provoked a dangerous Kremlin response: The United States is readying to take over airports and ports in the former Soviet republic of Georgia.
The claim, by U.S.-backed Georgia President Mikhail Saakashvili on Wednesday was swiftly shot down by officials in Washington, who denied any such designs on Georgian soil.
Fighting between the Russian and Georgian armies raged for days, leaving hundreds dead and some 100,000 forced from their homes. The U.S. government and world diplomats are scrambling for a way to cool the tensions.
Warfare erupted when Georgia sought to retake control over the breakaway province of South Ossetia last Thursday and Russia responded with overwhelming military force.
Saakashvili has been conducting daily interviews in his fluent English on international television networks and making frequent televised speeches at home.
On Wednesday, he said in an interview on CNN that Russian troops were "closing on the capital, circling," and planning to install their own government in Tbilisi.
Associated Press reporters in the area saw no sign of an impending coup. An AP reporter saw dozens of Russian trucks and armored vehicles heading south from the central city of Gori in the direction of Tbilisi, but they later turned away.
Saakashvili said Russian troops moving deeper into Georgia "even steal toilet seats."- Reply to this comment
- the fact that this administration is lacking concrete "intelligence" has been shown to us the American people on numerous occasions.
it is a wonder, and a compliment to this country, that we are all still alive!!!
worst people in the world, gwb & henchmen - Reply to this comment
- How can the world sit by while these people commit such horrendous crimes in our names? The lies and cover-ups are all too obvious on this one, and their attempts at diverting our attention by accusing Russia are just too juvenile.

- The article states, "I think the administration has most of what they need". The administration lacks an intelligent and trustworthy leader. Impeach George Bush.

- George Bush, Condoleezza Rice and D. Cheney, acting through their surrogate Saakashvili have committed terrible crimes and should be prosecuted. We are beyond listening to their propaganda anymore. They are a danger to the country and to the world and we need to get rid of them as soon as possible. This cannot wait until January.
