Putin's aggression in the Georgian conflict emboldened him to take similar steps in Ukraine. The Neocons and the Ultra-Conservatives on this board will not admit it. Putin got away with it in 2008 and he will get away with it in 2014. Facts are the worst enemy of the Ultras....

No comments from the RW loons? I guess I know why...

Just as Obama's hands are tied in confronting Russia in Ukraine, Bush had no leverage in stopping Russia in Georgia. What did you want Bush to do? Send in troops for another war, but this time against a nuclear super-power?

It would have been a bad move not worth the price!

LOL, there's no limit to the depths you people will go to blame Bush for everything you do, is there?
 
Really? What part of Georgia does Russia control now?

And ill concede Bush isn't great. Why does that excuse Obama's crappy policies?

I seem to remember McCain taking a hard stand against Russia back in '08, and Obama acting like a pussy. Then Obama won the election and hit the reset button with Russia as if nothing ever happened.

McCain has a patented answer for all this stuff:

1. Arm the opposition.
2. Impose a no fly zone.
3. Bomb them.

Rinse, repeat, wash..

Russia invaded Georgia only on CNN and the Zionist MSM
- What really happened was a New York educated Shakasvilli invaded South Ossetia in the middle of the night and Russians kicked his ass right back. end of story. But dingbats educated by American media (who have been taught that their own founding fathers were slave owners), know history differently.

McCain is always warmongering, I give you that, but Obama would have done the same thing Bush did if he was president, which is nothing, and as president Obama really showed his naïveté by hitting the reset button with the Ruskies. Only Obama is dumb enough to do that.

Actually..it's the "Bush Doctrine".

This was predicted.


Not the Bush doctrine but rather the EU's Kosovo doctrine. I remember the Russians using the unilateral creation of an independent state - Kosovo - as justification for their invasion of Georgia:

"Never mind that Russia is itself being incoherent in continuing to insist that Kosovo's independence from Serbia is still illegal (a stance driven in part by its wish to avoid setting a precedent for Chechnya or other restive republics within Russia). Mr Medvedev's assertion of a parallel between Kosovo and South Ossetia is almost entirely bogus."

EU doctrine not Bush. Sorry.

What exactly did you expect him to do?

Keep giving small European nations that were once in the Warsaw pact weapon systems that don't work..but can be reverse engineered as a delivery system for nukes?

What do you think Russia was getting ready to do in return?

You do know they have missile tech too, right?

And a plethora of nations just clamoring to get it.

BOOOSH!!
It's all youv'e got. It's like Obama has not been in office for 5 years already.
We know the truth: Putin has been playing Obama for years. Obama has projected weakness like no other president and Putin is taking advantage of it.
