Why do we choose to involve ourselves with shit that is none of our business such as Georgia/Russia incident, yet we completely ignore Darfur.

russians on the other hand win here, as they've shown the world they are completely independent and they have kicked georgian ass out of osetia in 3 days, whilst georgian troops have been taining by american system for the past 5 years. This is really weak!The usa will never invade russia as it would lead to the collapse of the world power. We, americans, have nato, but people, russians have china, that would be their ally as soon as they start pumping the oil there.Would you not aggree with me?

I have read all the comments below and came to a conclusions that there is only a small number of smart people here. I am american but I will judge the situation fairly unlike some people. Let us face it, if georgia dosn't resolve the problems with russia right now they will be economically fucked as they have torn all the trading with russians and if they do not give usa what they want usa will soon stop supporting them and then what are they going to do? Let us face it georgia lose either way

I agree agree agreee. Bush has nothing to do with this, but yet he goes and has to be involved with anything that has somethin' to do with OIL or WAR. He's fucking lame. USA government doesn't serve for us people and our concerns, only their insane ideology and to get into conflicts.Fuck him dude and Saakashvili is a war crime fag.

Georgia is not a U.S. ally. They are lackies of the Bush administration, which is different. And we are not obligated to go and validate their little dalliances, since they're not a NATO member, thank God. The Georgians made their bed and now they have to lie in it. The U.S. has enough troubles, and does not need to go looking for more...

Bush is throwing US and Russia relations back in the freezer! Can you smell another cold war? You bet Cheney can, while Haliburton banks in on these mideast wars he helped start! And as for Bush's speech...Ugh! Talk about no charisma! And Russia's supposed to take this moron seriously?

When Vladimir Putin heard President Bush demand that Russian troops "leave Georgia territory immediately", he yawned, scratched his belly and ambled over to the Kremlin frig to see if there were any left-overs from last night's imperial banquet with the French dignitaries. He may have even smiled wistfully to himself as he peered over the Chicken Kiev and the Siberian cutlets, thinking, "Nyet, George; South Ossetia's future is no longer negotiable".

Good bush , thanks for him are half of countries safe . Russia is fool and dont know how to get friendships .
drake10987 (August 22, 2008 at 11:32 am)
i just wish the US and russia would forget the past and get friendly already. it would make sense, the US needs oil and russia has plenty. both economies depend on it a lot.the US could then say fuck you oily saudis and your 15 9/11 hijackers.

as a team they could eventually kick china's face in if they dont behave well as the world's newest superpower.

the extremely slim but terrifying possibility of a nuclear armageddon would also be put on rest for a while.

LETS GET MARRIED.

"cowboy of the free world" hahaaha good one!

russia is full of uneducated drunks with mongoloid genes and it will be invaded and we will run your shithole country like we do in places were "brown people" live.
argentina2oo6 (August 20, 2008 at 11:58 pm)
The us wants Russia to fall apart so they can control them with ease and ultimately steal their natural resources.
I dare bush to go fuck with Russia and try to invade them... Oh no, wait... Russia is not a little powerless country full of oil and brown people... I forgot...
Support the troops, fuck bush
Fuck bush.

It might come as a surprise, but i totally agree with you on that matter. At that point it started to look quite crappy. I'm glad that shortly after that the situation was settled with the help of The Sarco-Man (tm).

It's funny that Bush argued that Russia should stop its military actions in Georgia. Did his government block the piece talks back in 2006 when Israel destroyed Lebanon's infrastracture and killed hundreds of civilians in order to punush Lebanon for the death of 5 soldiers?Double standards, or business as usual...I just feel sorry for Georgian civilians who was not avacuated from South Ocetia by Georgia when Russia started to push Georgian army from there. As well as for Russians in Georgia

anyone smell hypocrisy here?
MichailMolcanov (August 17, 2008 at 10:15 am)
When USA invaded Iraq, Russia didn't involve themselves into American business! Why would America involve themselves into Russian business? There were NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION IN IRAQ! YOUR TROOPS ARE STILL THERE BUSH!
Georgians started to massmurder people from south Ossetia. The people asked Russia for help to avoid getting wiped out! Now Americans wish to stop russian peacekeepers and let georgian bastards keep erasing their neighbours? Hell no!

Hold on tight!WW3 just started.
SlapEveryJew (August 15, 2008 at 11:39 pm)
The reason Bush is telling them to not go into Georgia is to avoid the US being involved in two wars. Georgia is an ally of the US so they're obligated to help each other out. If the Russians don't leave, then the US will have to take action. So quit bitching unless you want to be in two wars. It amazes me how stupid Americans are.
rockinraffi (August 15, 2008 at 9:24 pm)
Yeah motherfucker, you don't have any other options, because you neutralized your own ability to do anything meaningful when you decided to become the Cowboy of the Free World. The Russians are not stupid and know that, and they're taking advantage of it to the hilt. The only thing you are able to demonstrate is how badly you fucked yourself out of any moral authority or standing to criticize what the Russians are doing. You are the worst president in U.S. history, and a laughing stock to all...

WAR IN EURASIA AGAIN I SEE

sit down. Stand up
fantastican (August 15, 2008 at 1:47 pm)
Do you really believe you have the right to give any opinion or advice after Abu Ghraib? After Guantanamo? After the massacre of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi citizens? After the torture by CIA operatives? Kinda difficult, eh?
fantastican (August 15, 2008 at 1:46 pm)
President Bush,

Why don't you shut up? Do you really think anyone gives any importance whatsoever to your words after 8 years of your criminal and murderous regime and policies? Do you really believe you have any moral ground whatsoever and do you really imagine there is a single human being anywhere on this planet who does not stick up his middle finger every time you appear on a TV screen? Kinda makes ya'll think, eh?
fantastican (August 15, 2008 at 1:46 pm)
President Bush,

Why don't you shut up? How do you account for the fact that among the Georgian soldiers fleeing the fighting yesterday you could clearly hear officers using American English giving orders to "Get back inside" and how do you account for the fact that there are reports of American soldiers among the Georgian casualties? Kinda odd, eh?
