At least one highly experienced foreign analyst thinks Russia is acting like a schoolyard bully, but does it go even further & deeper than that? Russia’s foreign minister Serghej Lavrov spewed out an ill-conceived ultimatum Wednesday demanding that the US chooses between Georgia, or Russia, after President Bush warned the Kremlin that “the United States stands with the democratically elected government of Georgia.”
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice countered with, “This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia where Russia can threaten a neighbor, occupy a capital, overthrow a government and get away with it.Things have changed.”
Is it me, or do the Russians sound eerily akin to certain islamic terror groups whenever they open their mouths these days? And if they do resemble these groups, why are we negotiating with them?
“This is not 1968 and the invasion of Czechoslovakia where Russia can threaten a neighbor, occupy a capital, overthrow a government and get away with it,” Rice said. “Things have changed.”
The analyst in the video below agrees with my early assessments that this was nothing more than a Russian land/power grab.
Oh, on a “side note”.. The U.N. is still figuring out how they can send a bit more than a “stern” letter, since Russia would have to vote for it’s own condemnation as a “member in good standing”..
Once again I ask, where is the UN? How many “stern warnings” will they give while innocent people are caught in nothing short of a war for Oil, land & for the purpose of squelching freedom?
Make no mistake, this was a probing test for Russia, to see how fare they could push their luck with the international community, & how much they could take before someone stepped in to stop them.
So what has the US done in response? Not much more than the same kind of empty rebuking that the UN has done. Does President Bush really think that Russia cares what he says? We should load up T’Bilisi with a full fledged fighting force. Now THAT would send a message. This administration needs to remember one thing. Honor is no more with our enemies. They only understand on thing, & that is force.
It’s the least we can do after Georgia sent more troops to Iraq to assist us, than some of out bigger allies have. Show weakness, & Russia will respond like a dog does when you show fear. They will keep getting more & more aggressive.
Right now the message we’re sending to Georgia is, “Hey, we have your back, as long as it doesn’t cost us politically, or involve actually doing anything other than trash talk.”
Tonight I watched the Democratic National committee stand there & flat out lie to the American people about what THEY can do for this country, & what Bush hasn’t done. The truth is they have had control of most of this country’s power for two years now, with their control of the US Congress, & they’ve gotten less done than any congress in history. They have the lowest approval rating of any Congress in history. They have the nerve say that “On Bush’s watch” this, & on Bush’s watch that, when they are the ones who had the opportunity to change things, & they completely squandered it.
How we let morally corrupt trash like Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid & Howard Dean become leaders in this once great nation, is beyond reason. They lie constantly & do it with absolutely no remorse or conscience.
They have the gall to blame the Gas Prices on Bush, when they were the ones proposing more taxes on companies that bring us our energy, thus eventually driving up the prices even more. Their party is the party that keeps us from drilling for our own oil & natural gas resources on OUR OWN SOIL.
I really don’t know what to say to my fellow Americans other than you’d better get your head out of your XBox, Sex in the City, & whatever else is distracting you from caring about what kind of corruption is occurring in the Government of the United States. These people are intentionally destroying the sovereignty of this nation because they believe in selling out to our enemies for a quick political payoff. Most Democrats do not fear God, because they don’t believe in him in the first place, so why would they have a problem with lying? They don’t believe that they will face eternal consequences for their actions, so what do these old farts like Pelosi & Reid care if they destroy the nation? The way they see it is when they’re dead they’re dead, so they might as well get all they can while they are alive.
It is critical that we take out the trash in the next 8-12 years, starting with most of the Democratic Party. As I said, I have never in all my life seen more people in a position of such power who are so willing to flat out lie to our faces for personal & political power & gain. Remember, one of the biggest problems facing this nation today is an energy crisis, & these people have the nerve to point the finger at others after 2 years of controlling the congress & doing almost nothing.
There is one comfort I have in all of this, & that is that I know that those who lie & cheat without conscience will face the wrath of God when he returns. That includes people like Howard Dean who’s viral lying words about President George Bush go far beyond constructive criticism.
Then there’s that complete scumbag Senator Debbie Stabow who has the nerve to blame Bush’s economic policies for her democratic tax & spend government’s failures in Michigan. Democrats have run Michigan into the ground, & this psychopath had the nerve to get up on CSpan & blame Bush. Bush is to blame for everything if you’re a Democrat. A manhole transformer explosion can occur in Moscow, & the Democrats will say that’s Bush’s fault too. These people are less insane than they are just plan evil, but they are a some of both.
My fellow Americans, I hate to be the one to tell you this, but you have turned your government over to one of the most vile broods of viper in all history, & they want to put a closet Muslim Extremist sympathizer in office to further undermine our sovereignty, & submit to like minded liberal,fascist,communist,socialist governments around the world. If we don’t begin to take out the garbage soon, you will be living under a tyranny that will be painful to remove.. It’s critical to your future & the future of your children that you remove this tumor that is growing on our nation.
After I watched the horrid drivel coming from the DNC, the idiots (like Mike German) from the ACLU had their turn spewing their hypocrisy & rhetoric (since they are are a front for the Democrats) on privacy & surveillance.
They sadly & pathetically try to use the abuse perpetrated by ONE police officer using an infrared camera to spot a couple making out on a roof, as proof that “Bush’s” surveillance policies have violated the privacy of the American people. Yet I’ve worked for Democrats at a college they run, & they monitor people’s phone calls, confiscate the hard drives & IM Logs of any employee that’s quit or been fired, & regularly try to brainwash employees about global warming & a host of other social issues that have nothing to do with their Job requirements.
In short, Democrats are largely vile & despicable lying hypocrites, & the way you can tell if they are lying to you, is if they are communicating to you in any way whatsoever, be it speech, writing, or hand signs. Turn this country over to these people, & we will be doomed to more than listening to the Liberal employees at Starbucks trying to force us to say “Grande”, “Venti”, & “Tall”, instead of speaking english in the United States. We will be doomed to bowing to the whims of the democratic party & whatever terms they have made with the devil while selling out our country to terrorists & their sympathizers.
My message to my fellow countrymen & women is to wake up & see what evil is creeping up on you. They want to tell you what size car to drive, take away your guns, & tell you that you can’t have bibles or prayer in public schools, yet they speak out the other side of their mouths about their concerns of over liberty & Government surveillance. These people are lying scum, & the Democratic party as it currently exists, must be defeated & destroyed, period. It has lost it’s moral compass, & besides it’s advocation of murdering babies & pushing the gay agenda on the American people, & blatantly lying to the public about phantom environmental concerns like “Global Warming” it’s list of moral atrocities grow exponentially every year. They have infiltrated & completely taken over the news media & educational system so that they can control the information the American people receive, & they regularly attack any media outlet with whom they either don’t agree, or who tries to present anything other than a liberal view. Liberals these days only believe in their own liberty. If you want proof, watch C-Span. It really should be call “C-Spam” (for cerebral spam), but that would be too much honesty for a liberal network to handle.
Oh. one more thing.. I wonder if it’s any coincidence that there was a man in some hardcore Muslim garb sitting in the CSPAN audience & listening intently to Mike German from the ACLU? Talk about surveillance…
Since the U.N. regularly ignores our nation’s sovereignty, if things were right, we’d kick them out of this country, stop wasting tax payer money on this organization, & then ignore their idle threats until they spend some time investigating & solving REAL human rights violations, like say oh.. Darfur? Let me say that again for the nimrods at the U.N. DARFUR! GO FIX DARFUR! Leave the U.S. alone..
Now of course peanut brain Jimmy Carter is going to Syria to meet with Khaled Meshal, the former king of Hamas until his competing thugs in Hezbollah ran him off. Of course nobody is going to put these two arrogant democrats in Jail for Treason, but we can at least continue to expose them for the Marxist drones that they are. Pelosi & Carter are both globalists that are willing to sell our country’s sovereignty out for a case of sushi & a can of salted peanuts, because they & these viral Islamic Jihadists are by their very own controlling & fascist nature, are indeed two peas in a pod.
Well, I’d really like to get behind the Republican Candidate. The only problem is, we don’t have one running. What we have is a wolf in sheep’s clothing, who will sell us down the river for a song, & a bottle of Jack Daniels to swig while he sings his drunken & bitter farewell to the Republican Party. With the following speech, he has cemented my complete distrust in his ability to protect the sovereignty of the country I love. My country, the United States of America. Read the excerpts below from McCain’s recent speech on foreign policy, & pay attention to some of the frightening statements I’ve highlighted. Full Speech can be found here at one of his favorite publications.
The United States must lead in the 21st century, just as in Truman’s day. But leadership today means something different than it did in the years after World War II, when Europe and the other democracies were still recovering from the devastation of war and the United States was the only democratic superpower. Today we are not alone. There is the powerful collective voice of the European Union, and there are the great nations of India and Japan, Australia and Brazil, South Korea and South Africa, Turkey and Israel, to name just a few of the leading democracies. There are also the increasingly powerful nations of China and Russia that wield great influence in the international system.
In such a world, where power of all kinds is more widely and evenly distributed, the United States cannot lead by virtue of its power alone. We must be strong politically, economically, and militarily. But we must also lead by attracting others to our cause, by demonstrating once again the virtues of freedom and democracy, by defending the rules of international civilized society and by creating the new international institutions necessary to advance the peace and freedoms we cherish. Perhaps above all, leadership in today’s world means accepting and fulfilling our responsibilities as a great nation.
One of those responsibilities is to be a good and reliable ally to our fellow democracies. We cannot build an enduring peace based on freedom by ourselves, and we do not want to. We have to strengthen our global alliances as the core of a new global compact — a League of Democracies — that can harness the vast influence of the more than one hundred democratic nations around the world to advance our values and defend our shared interests.
At the heart of this new compact must be mutual respect and trust. Recall the words of our founders in the Declaration of Independence, that we pay “decent respect to the opinions of mankind.” Our great power does not mean we can do whatever we want whenever we want, nor should we assume we have all the wisdom and knowledge necessary to succeed. We need to listen to the views and respect the collective will of our democratic allies. When we believe international action is necessary, whether military, economic, or diplomatic, we will try to persuade our friends that we are right. But we, in return, must be willing to be persuaded by them.
America must be a model citizen if we want others to look to us as a model. How we behave at home affects how we are perceived abroad. We must fight the terrorists and at the same time defend the rights that are the foundation of our society. We can’t torture or treat inhumanely suspected terrorists we have captured. I believe we should close Guantanamo and work with our allies to forge a new international understanding on the disposition of dangerous detainees under our control.
There is such a thing as international good citizenship. We need to be good stewards of our planet and join with other nations to help preserve our common home. The risks of global warming have no borders. We and the other nations of the world must get serious about substantially reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the coming years or we will hand off a much-diminished world to our grandchildren. We need a successor to the Kyoto Treaty, a cap-and-trade system that delivers the necessary environmental impact in an economically responsible manner. We Americans must lead by example and encourage the participation of the rest of the world, including most importantly, the developing economic powerhouses of China and India.
Well John McCain, You are no Ronald Reagan, & he rejected virtually everything you’ve put forth in your speech.
Warnings came about a year ago, when John McCain cunningly eluded to his own Kerryesque “global test” philosophy. (See video below, it makes more sense now.) This is one reason why so many Democrats crossed over to vote for McCain in the primaries. Listen to what the wolf said back then. He’s is of course airing his globalist NWO out in the open completely, now that he has the nomination wrapped up & Conservatives can’t do anything about it now. In short, we Conservatives just got screwed. I will never vote for him. Personally I’d rather he got the “domestic housing crisis” wrong, & the foreign policy & sovereignty of the US right. I think our sovereignty is a wee bit more important. ~Dan Lee
Glenn Beck is rightfully sounding the horn about a treaty before the US Congress right now, that would effectively dash our sovereignty & our Constitution to little flaming bits.
After watching this video, it should become clear to you why you need to immediately call your Congressman, & demand that this country does NOT sign any such treaty with the United Nations. Under the so called Law of the Sea Treaty, the U.N. would be given control over 70% of the earth’s surface.. We would no longer be able to stop ships suspected of terrorism in these newly proposed “International Waters”. Do you want an Iranian battleship getting close to our shores unchecked, because they have a “right to” under this treaty? This is a really critical Treaty, & the liberal socialist media in our country is trying to bury the story. We the people must stand up against this Treaty, & make sure IT DOES NOT GET SIGNED BY THE UNITED STATES. ~Dan Lee
