Vlad might better check himself before he gets going too far along. He apparently was believing the Drive By Media and thinking that President Bush’s hands were tied. Someone forgot to tell Bush that he isn’t supposed to be able to do anything.
Bush Warns Russia on Georgia, Sends Rice to Tbilisi (Update1)
Aug. 13 (Bloomberg) — President George W. Bush said the U.S. would stand behind its ally Georgia and warned Russia that it must respect the “territorial integrity” of the Black Sea nation. A U.S. military cargo plane is heading to Georgia with relief supplies and Bush said he directed Defense Secretary Robert Gates to organize a humanitarian aid effort. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will travel to Georgia to confer with President Mikheil Saakashvili. Bloomberg.com: Worldwide
Now we get to watch everyone get trembly about the big bad Russians. Bunch of incompetent louts who, like muslim men, love to pick on folks who cannot fight back like women and small countries. Jesus they "tried" to bomb a pipeline. If the Russians go boo we will stomp them into the ground and that will be that…
Reason #1,499 that the Iraqi war has become a mockery of our intentions. When Republicans sit around the campfire at night wondering why they are in the wilderness they might just take a gander at items like this absurdity. I am a Conservative Republican who hasn’t given one red cent to the Republican party in a good long time.
Vice President Tareq al-Hashemi said he had received an official apology from the top U.S. general in Iraq, General David Petraeus, in a meeting with Lieutenant-General Lloyd Austin, the number two U.S. military commander in Iraq.

Our very top General in Iraq spent quality time apologizing to the “Vice President” of Iraq. And that apology wasn’t good enough for Hajji.
One of the guarantees I received from General Austin is that they are committed to showing respect to holy sites and traditions of the Iraqi people … But I don’t believe that is enough.”
No Hajji wants us to have all the US soldiers protecting his sorry ass and those of his people, who it might be said he could NOT protect without the US Soldiers, sign some sort of promise that they will respect hajji’s traditions and customs. Like the one where you behead prisoners…oops no not that one. Maybe they mean the one where they get to murder any woman in sight if said woman might complain about the size of their…ego. Yea ego.
Hashemi said he told Austin that American soldiers should be required to sign an agreement to respect holy sites and the cultures and traditions of Iraq.
“I asked that this document is distributed today to American soldiers and officers and that they sign this document. So that if they violate this they will be held to account and face the most severe punishment in the future,” Hashemi said.
Most severe punishment…hmm that freedom of speechy thing hasn’t quite filtered up to the leaders yet has it? Hajji and his fellow compatriots should be left to their own devices. We should keep troops nearby and stomp them if needed. But this trying to teach a bunch of tribes how to act like they weren’t raised by wolves is just so much bullshit. I am tired of hearing about Hajji. I never signed on to teaching hajji how to build the most advanced civilization in the world. Hell we couldn’t even teach the French how to do that. Hat Tip Allah Pundit at Hot Air.

Time to remember why we went to war again since the Bush Administration cannot be bothered to make the case.
This was published as a blog post to commemorate the 5th Anniversary of 9/11. It is time to remember why we are fighting in Iraq.
Why did I make this list of Saddam’s Connections and Collaborations with Al Qaeda?
This list started out as just an area to drop links that I found relevant regarding the most obvious reason for taking Saddam out of power, his use of Islamic terrorists to wage war by proxy. This aspect of Saddam’s madness has always been the central reason for deposing him. We could not allow any Dictator who believed in using Islamic terrorists as proxies to have any sort of major weapons. The crux was his desire to use Islamic terrorists as proxies in wars against us, which he states as a viable strategy against us in his conversations with Ambassador Glaspie prior to Former President Bush’s war to take back Kuwait.
As a father it struck me early on how important it was to have valid reason for going to war. Theorists, policy makers, and various bureaucrats might believe UN Resolutions were important enough to go to and sustain war but as a father I knew it wouldn’t be. None of my children mattered so little to me that I would waste them upholding such a cynical organization as the UN. But showing clear connections and collaborations between a nation and those terrorists we knew to be attacking and I would support going to war.
Our war is far from over. To do our part at home we need to respond against those who try and stop our battle for survival by discrediting our war in Iraq specifically, and against Islamic totalitarians in general. Fight back against those who try to say that Saddam was not linked to terror, either in private conversations, letters to the editor, radio talk shows or wherever they make themselves known. Now when you hear someone make the claim that there was no evidence of Saddam’s links to terror you have at your fingertips enough evidence to make effective counterpoints.

So yesterday we claimed that we mistakenly delivered empty nuclear missile nose cones.
WASHINGTON, March 25, 2008 - The U.S. military has regained control of four non-nuclear nose cone assemblies for a Minuteman missile mistakenly sent to Taiwan in 2006, Air Force Secretary Michael W. Wynne said during a news conference here today.
Today we claimed that the empty nose cones were actually the nuclear missile fuses for intercontinental ballistic missiles. Weeee!
The U.S. military’s mistaken delivery to Taiwan of electrical fuses for an intercontinental ballistic missile has raised concerns over U.S.-China relations. It has also triggered a broad investigation into the security of Pentagon weapons. Bush Calls Fuse Delivery a Mistake
Will tomorrow bring the news that we were actually smuggling an entire missile into Taiwan a piece at a time. Will someone please stand up and take control of the weapons before the kids blow us all up?
In case you have forgotten the kids “lost” 5 nuclear weapons last year when they went joyriding around the country attached to the bottom of a B-52. Ooops. Guess the crew just figured those things attached to their wings were brand new hood ornaments for their bomber?
Hey I am all for protesting the Chinese Government for their general thuggishness but how about we ramp it up a bit faster than sending nuclear weapons into Taiwan a piece at a time? Oh hell how do you make fun of idiocy this monumental?
This sort of crap has been happening a lot lately. Remember the Nuclear Weapons that went on a “joyride” around the country affixed to a B-52? I covered that story in a longish article regarding the state of our nuclear weapons.
