Wow, even with the editing key I botched it, sigh.

well let me try once again,

Its sort of like what Hans Rolfe could have said in a not too far off court room, “We succeeded beyond our wildest dreams. Why did we succeed, Your Honor? What about the rest of the world? Did it not know the intentions of (Iran)? Did it not hear the words of (Akmadinajad and Kohmani) broadcast all over the world? Did it not read of his intentions in (the NY Times), published in every corner of the globe?…

…No, Your Honor. No! (Bush) alone is not guilty: The whole world is as responsible for Akmadinahad’s Iran.

” The Wall Street Journal reported last Friday that as part of a policy review commissioned by Obama, “diplomats are discussing whether the US will eventually have to accept Iran’s insistence on carrying out the [enrichment] process, which can produce both nuclear fuel and weapons-grade material”.

“Putin has shifted to using his wallet…

Direct action is now known to be too expensive.”

I thought after Putin’s last foray into physically invading a neighboring country that the rest of the world would stick it to him through the banking system, like we’ve learned how to do with the Arabs.

Not only is direct action extremely expensive, but it had to hurt that the Russian soldiers doing the invading were being universally laughed at as incompetent clowns at the same time.

I say we take them at their word
Though some word combos sound absurd
Somali is a word that sings
Trips off your tongue like bluebird wings
But trouble comes when e’re I hear
The word Somali placed too near
A word that sounds like government
It’s then I sniff a certain scent
That tells me something is not right
And caution forms afore I bite
The simplest thing I guess to do
Is arm the willing merchant crew
Then when the pirate grapple flies
The first man up the ladder dies

“Obama may or may not be tested by international crisis soon. But Joe Biden doesn’t exactly lend credibility to that notion or any other.”

You could be right, but remember, Joe ran at the mouth shortly after having his scales peeled during a Freebie Transition Period National Security Briefing.

I wonder where our dear FSB-sponsored posters are…

Здравствуйте, товарищи!

It’s no fun for them to post without a budget appropriation, I guess.

Ah Spring, when a frisky Russian turns to thoughts of mayhem.
We get to welcome our old friends from the Kremlin back

So true, so very, very true.

Ah Spring, when a frisky Russian turns to thoughts of mayhem.
We get to welcome our old friends from the Kremlin back. This time they should bring beer.

We should have blown the tunnel through the Caucasus eight months ago. Let us hope that the Georgians have used this time wisely. The most interesting dot connecting would be if some Indians show up in Tbilisi.
