Russia has not left Georgia and now one of their generals is stating that Poland is next. President Bush has sent Condie with an agreement worked out by France for the Georgian President to sign. Now here's the problem--The U.S. is telling Russia not to do what it did in Iraq. We're telling Russia that our kind of behavior is not tolerable for this century. Now does that make sense to you? Not to me. And, the agreement worked out by France gives the land in question to the Russians to pacify them. Now here is the kicker--doesn't this sound familiar? To historians it rings of Hitler, of WWII. Europe and the U.S. gave Hitler Europe, piece-by-piece, to pacify him. And, Hitler took it, piece-by-piece, and demanded more. Folks, Georgia is just the beginning--now Poland is on the line. USSR, here it comes.

I was walking by the TV set at work, the one that is always tuned to CNN; and by God, I think I had an epiphany. The news announcer was talking about the situation in Georgia, between Russia and Georgia, and he made the ultimate statement. Something I would never had thought of myself, and would never have believed without some newscaster telling me. I hope that you can hear the sarcasm in my voice! He stated, right there on TV, that the world couldn't believe anything that Prime Minister Putin said. And, that the war in Georgia proved that. No, folks the fact that Putin is still in control of Russia, in spite of the fake election and the puppet president, proved that one. I do believe that any political analyst, worth their salt, figured that one out a long time ago.

Last night's exhibition of gymnastics was just that, an exhibition. The U.S. defeated itself with its team making errors and Ms. Sacramone's two falls; but, the Chinese have obviously been blatantly cheating. The little girl who was not allowed to sing in the opening because officials judged her not good looking enough, then the enlightenment about the perfect fireworks, and now the lying about the ages of its gymnastics team. It was quite obvious to me that these girls were not 16 years old, I mean I've been there myself and I've raised 2 daughters. The Chinese are small in stature, but not small and young. I admit these young girls were good; but, it remains to be seen if American youngsters couldn't have been that good too. I remember the days of the Russian "women" who were as big as our Californian governor being entered in the Olympics as "big" Russian women. Thank God for DNA testing. And, we all should be aware of the drugging of athletes in all sports'; let's face it cheating is cheating. If the IOC is going to keep turning its back to make the hosts happy, or is it to prevent hard feelings, then why don't we just advertise the Olympic games as open to everyone and everything possible in order to win.

Everyday on the way to work, I hear it on public radio. There were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq; therefore, Bush shouldn't have invaded Iraq. I agree with the last part of that sentence. Bush should never have invaded Iraq; however, there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The problem is that people think that WMD means nuclear weapons only and it doesn't. WMDs include chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons. The United States gave Iraq chemical and biological weapons to use in their war against Iran; and they did. Where are those WMDs now? Hussein probably sold them to countries or groups who could afford to pay his price. I don't know the answer because I wasn't there. But, I do know that they were there at one time. And, the UN inspectors, who went into Iraq and inspected (many times), have stated that they were there. They have also stated that Iraq had everything it needed to build nuclear weapons except for enriched uranium. So, the programs was there, most of the materials were there, and now everyone is stating that the stuff never existed, and that it isn't there now; they can't find it, so it never existed. Well, folks--WAKEUP!!!!

I'm sure that all of you know that Russia and Georgia are at war. Georgia use to be part of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. Georgia has had troops in Iraq to help the United States and now they need their troops back home. So, it wasn't okay for the U.S. to invade Iraq; but, it seems to be okay with the world that Russia is at war with Georgia. Oh, sure the world has condemned Russia for its actions, but I see more on TV about the Olympics than what's happening in Georgia. And, yeah the U.S. has ask Russia to stop its invasion, but that's all I've heard. No, I'm not a warmonger; but, Georgia came to the aid of the U.S. in Iraq (a lot of countries did not). Why aren't we helping Georgia in its hour of need? Why aren't we sticking up for our allies? Isn't there anything in it for us? What was in it for Georgia to help us? Are we afraid of Russia? Well, here's my opinion--Russia and China have a pack; they will defend each other in case of war. The U.S. has hardly any allies; and, we do not defend our allies when they are attacked, they are just suppose to be there to defend us. Right after the start of the Olympic games, the leader of China told George Bush to stay out of their business when Bush spoke out about human rights in China. Russia is trying to reassert their world power with the help of China. Russia is trying to re-build it's prior network of satellite countries; and this is their opportunity. They are not going to leave Georgia until they can re-attach it to Russia; they know that no one will stop them; and they know that the U.S. is not going to make a move to defend Georgia. We are looking at the start of Russian/Chinese world dominance, my friends, and chicken-shit America isn't going to do anything. We do not care, as long as we can sit in our homes and watch the Olympics. Sad? Yeah, it's sad. Better turn off that TV and start learning to speak Russian and Chinese.
