spinproof-love your insight into the Bay of Pigs debacle. You have learned well at the knee of the lib msm, grasshopper. Now, others would say that Pres Kennedy encourged the invasion, backed it to a point but would not give any air support to those he sent in.You know, sort of like failed Vietnam, and let''s not forget our troops that were butchered in Somolia under clinton. So, that being said, yep, it was your typical democratic stab at "democracy".
Now, retort with all kinds of name calling but try and remember, I still am permitted to voice MY opinion.

Pres.-elect Obama and Vice Pres.-elect Biden will restore America''s Democracy, no problem. Californians will remove that AG next election cycle, no problem.

Pres. John F. Kennedy supported the Bay of Pigs invasion but not with American forces, he wanted the fight to stay between Cuban political factions and Castro won, that was the way it was suppose to turn out else it be seen as an American land grab and illegal. Pres. Kennedy helped the opposition to Castro but only up to a point and never personally supported direct American involvement, others did.

South Ossettia is officially a part of Georgian territory recognized by the U.N. and Russia! Russia had no official business sending military forces to invade Georgia without a U.N. mandate or U.N. approval no matter what was going on inside of Georgia''s sovereign territory just because Russia did not like what was going on there. Russia''s invasion of Georgia was officially wrong and condemed! Russia is responsible for expanding the war in Ossettia and should recognize and obey international maps and borders!

"It very much is a battle between Communist and the U.S. and other Democracies"

Democracies? What democracies? Surely you don''t mean to suggest that america is still a democracy. The Ununited Socialist States of America.
