Biden - "Obama Has No Experience"
The white liberal communist is the greatest threat to this country and they are the gas in Obama's engine.
One more thing - Biden voted for the IRAQ WAR, I am sure that does not stand well with Obama's communist base. These libtards are totally out of their minds....

American Citizen on Pravda Spewing 9/11 Propaganda
This is just more propaganda to cover up the 9/11 trail that leads to Putin and MOSCOW. The Muslim terrorists were communist agents acting on the behalf of the Russians and this is the real reason why Bush and Putin are butting heads over NATO since 2001.
Al Qaeda's #2 man, Ayman Zawahiri has been KGB since at least 1980 and he even assisted with the assassination of Anwar Sadat in Egypt, but of course you will never hear this from the socialist American media.
Russia is in bed with Iran and Syria for years, but the relationship is stealth to the media and the morons in America. When I mention the Russian threat, they still look at me like I am nuts. Iran and Syria have been assisting, funding and arming terrorism since the 70's and Russia is guilty by association.
http://deletefrance.blogspot.com/2008/08/how-russia-turned-muslim-world-against.html
The KGB celebrates 9/11, because it is the date of birth of the founder of the KGB (09/11/1877). This is also the date of death of Nikita Kruschev (09/11/1971). The plan to infiltrate the USA 's media, political party's and colleges with socialist ideologies and drugs was hatched under Kruschevs watch according to Soviet defectors.
The USA has been engaged in a proxy war with the Russians and the Chinese since the Korean War, but 9/11 the war was brought to American soil. I suspect that this truth might be coming out soon due to the increase in the anti-Russian comments coming out of Washington.
Notice the propaganda in the article? It states that the USA is a fascist police state and this is the same propaganda that the Alex Jones loons preach everyday on the Internet. This is to rile up the left wing loons and other gullible people. The goal is to turn them against their own government, so they are basically siding with the leftists and aiding their socialist revolution in doing so. It is very clever and it is working effectively I might add.
This article is classic disinformation propaganda...enjoy.

Barack Obama's 'lost' brother found in Kenya
The Italian edition of Vanity Fair said that it had found George Hussein Onyango Obama living in a hut in a ramshackle town of Huruma on the outskirts of Nairobi.
Mr Obama, 26, the youngest of the presidential candidate's half-brothers, spoke for the first time about his life, which could not be more different than that of the Democratic contender.
"No-one knows who I am," he told the magazine, before claiming: "I live here on less than a dollar a month."
According to Italy's Vanity Fair his two metre by three metre shack is decorated with football posters of the Italian football giants AC Milan and Inter, as well as a calendar showing exotic beaches of the world.
Vanity Fair also noted that he had a front page newspaper picture of his famous brother - born of the same father as him, Barack Hussein Obama, but to a different mother, named only as Jael.
He told the magazine: "I live like a recluse, no-one knows I exist."
Embarrassed by his penury, he said that he does not does not mention his famous half-brother in conversation.
"If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed," he said.
For ten years George Obama lived rough. However he now hopes to try to sort his life out by starting a course at a local technical college.
He has only met his famous older brother twice - once when he was just five and the last time in 2006 when Senator Obama was on a tour of East Africa and visited Nairobi.
The Illinois senator mentions his brother in his autobiography, describing him in just one passing paragraph as a "beautiful boy with a rounded head".
Of their second meeting, George Obama said: "It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes. It was like meeting a complete stranger."
George added he was no longer in contact with his mother and said:"I have had to learn to live and take what I need.
"Huruma is a tough place, last January during the elections there was rioting and six people were hacked to death. The police don't even arrest you they just shoot you.
"I have seen two of my friends killed. I have scars from defending myself with my fists. I am good with my fists."

DNC facing limousine shortage
I guess the hypocrite liberals are not so GREEN, but they are ELITIST...NO DOUBT.
DENVER - Thousands of delegates, politicians, supporters and protesters are expected to descend upon Denver for the Democratic National Convention in two weeks. One thing they may not find is a ride around town due to a lack of limousines.
"Everyone wants a limo, but you can only supply so many," said Gene Cookenboo, president of the Limousine Association of Colorado and owner of Presidential Limousine, the largest limo service in Denver.
According to records, 271 limo companies are registered at DIA. However, Cookenboo says the majority of those companies only have one to three cars. It comes at a time when limo companies are expected to make 125 runs a day during the DNC compared to 80 during a normal week.
"We're simply running out of cars," said Cookenboo.
Cookenboo says many of those cars are reserved for 12 to 24 hours a day by a particular person or group of people to get around town during the four-day convention.

Russian PM Putin to open official party branch in Israel
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's political party, "Yadinaya Rasiya" (United Russia), will open a branch in Israel, marking the first time ever that a Russian party will have an official mission in the country.
Likewise, Israel's ruling party, Kadima, is slated to open its own branch in Moscow. The party already has offices operating in France and the United States. The move is aimed at boosting the party's support among Russian-speaking voters who are eligible to vote in their native country's elections and mostly tend to back Putin's party.

The Ted Kennedy / Jimmy Carter KGB connections
A later KGB report to the Soviet bosses revealed that on March 5, 1980, Tunney met with the KGB in Moscow on behalf of Senator Kennedy. Tunney expressed Kennedy's opinion that "nonsense about the military threat and Soviet ambitions for military expansion in the Persian Gulf....was being fueled by [President Jimmy] Carter, [National Security Advisor Zbignew] Brzezinski, the Pentagon, and the military industrial complex."
At that time, Carter was running for re-election, and Kennedy was challenging him in the Democrat primaries. That the Massachusetts senator would in effect carry his campaign to the secret police of a hostile foreign power is a back-stabbing scandal of considerable magnitude.
It is relevant (though by no means exculpatory on Kennedy's part) to note that this was at a time when Carter himself, after spending three years dismissing "the inordinate fear of communism," had (temporarily, at least) come to his senses because of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. It seems Kennedy was sneaking behind the back of a sitting president and encouraging an enemy foreign power to undermine that president who — by the way — was of the senator's own political party.

Ted Kennedy -- KGB collaborator?
Ted Kennedy has acknowledged that Ronald Reagan "will be honored as the president who won the Cold War." But if a letter from the head of the KGB to Soviet leader Yuri Andropov is authentic and accurate, then Kennedy offered to work with the Soviets to undermine the very efforts by Reagan that brought us that victory.
The letter, dated May 14 1983, features in a new book by Paul Kengor called The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism discussed here by the Washington Times. In the letter, KGB head Viktor Chebrikov describes a message he received from Kennedy through Kennedy pal and former U.S. Senator John Tunney. According to Chebrikov, Kennedy (through Tunney) expressed concern with "Reagan's belligerence" and the fact that antipathy towards the Soviets will be an important issue in the 1984 presidential campaign. Kennedy stated that the peaceful intentions of the Soviets weren't being given their due by the president or the media. He therefore proposed a meeting with Soviet officials in which he would "arm" them with arguments "so they may be better prepared and more convincing during appearances in the USA." He also suggested that Andropov made himself available for interviews by media in the U.S.
In short, if the KGB man's account is accurate, Kennedy was working with the Soviets to undermine Reagan's hard line policies and influence the 1984 election. As Kengor puts it:
If the memo is in fact an accurate account of what transpired, it constitutes a remakable example of the lengths to which some on the political left, including a sitting U.S. senator, were willing to go to stop Ronald Reagan.
Raise your hand if you believe that Ted Kennedy and today's left-wing Democrats are above this sort of behavior when it comes to stopping President Bush.
JOHN adds: Kennedy wasn't the only one. As we've noted before, Soviet archives also indicate that Jimmy Carter and Tip O'Neill offered to collaborate with the Russians to undermine Reagan.

History repeating itself? The Russians seem to like making military moves in August. I have noticed this for some time and EVERY AUGUST for the past 4 years I have watched these bastards closely. This August, it finally happened...Georgia.
An interesting angle that I have not heard yet from anyone is the USA was involved in the Vietnam war when Russia invaded Czechoslovakia. Today , while the USA is in Iraq and Afghanistan Russia invades Georgia. Was it part of their plan? Keep the USA busy while fighting their surrogates (yes, Saddam was a Russian surrogate and so is Al Qaeda) so they can just walk into any Country that they like. Interesting...
Tomorrow is the 40th anniversary of the invasion of Czechoslovakia..........
1 - August 21, 1968 - Czechoslovakia invaded
2 - August 29, 1949 - Russia tested their first atomic bomb,
3- August 8th, 1945 - (the same day as the Georgia invasion) Russia declares war on Japan
4 - August 20, 1991 - The staged collapse of the USSR, Gorbachev placed under house arrest.
5- August 25, 1941 - Soviet and British troops invaded Iran in reaction to the Shah's refusal to reduce the number of German residents.
6 - August 24, 1991 - President Mikhail Gorbachev resigned as the head of the Communist Party
7 - August 19, 1960 - The Soviet Union launched its Sputnik 5 satellite into Earth orbit

NYC Pays Anti-War Group $2 Million Dollars
RNC Accuses Obama Bundler of Supporting Iraq Insurgency
A FRIEND SENT THIS TO ME.............
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Republican National
Committee (RNC) published an update at its BarackBook.com website yesterday
that accuses Barack Obama presidential campaign bundler Jodie Evans of
supporting the insurgency in Iraq.
http://www.barackbook.com/Profiles/JodieEvans.htm
Evans is co-founder of the so-called antiwar group Code Pink.
The RNC quoted a January 15, 2006 column by Robert Novak that said,
"Code Pink, At A Mock War Crimes Tribunal In Istanbul June 27, Signed A
Declaration That The Iraqi Insurgency 'Deserved The Support Of People
Everywhere Who Care For Justice And Freedom.'"
Evans represented Code Pink at the mock war crimes tribunal. In
addition to expressing Code Pink's support for the insurgency, Evans
published a statement from Istanbul personally endorsing the insurgency
that has killed thousands of American troops and free Iraqis:
"We must begin by really standing with the Iraqi people and defending
their right to resist. I can remain myself against all forms of violence,
and yet I cannot judge what someone has to do when pushed to the wall to
protect all they love. The Iraqi people are fighting for their country, to
protect their families and to preserve all they love. They are fighting for
their lives, and we are fighting for lies." (AlterNet, June 26, 2005)
Evans has a close relationship with the Obama campaign. She hosted
Obama's first Hollywood fundraiser in February 2007, along with Steven
Spielberg, David Geffen, Jeffrey Katzenberg and her ex-husband Max
Palevsky.
According to Evans' Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin, Evans is on a
first name basis with Obama and discussed Iraq policy with Obama at another
Hollywood fundraiser on June 24, 2008.
Evans is listed on the Obama website as having bundled between $50,000
and $100,000. She has also contributed the maximum $2300 to his primary
campaign, according to FEC records.
In addition to supporting the insurgency in Iraq, Evans recently
expressed her agreement with Osama bin Laden's reasons for attacking
America on September 11, 2001 in an interview broadcast June 3, 2008:
Jodie Evans:..."We were attacked because we were in Saudi Arabia, that
was the message of Osama, was that because we had our bases in the Middle
East, he attacked the United States."
Paul A. Ibbetson: "Do you think that's a valid argument?"
Evans: "Sure. Why do we have bases in the Middle East? We totally
violated the rights of that country. Why do we get to have bases in the
Middle East?"
Also in that interview, Evans said Code Pink's goal is to "undermine
the war effort (of the United States") and that she wished Saddam Hussein
was still in power.
Toward that goal, Evans has worked with the governments of Saddam
Hussein (in 2003), Hugo Chavez and the Castro brothers, as well as
pro-insurgent elements in the Middle East.
While supporting the Iraq insurgency abroad, Evans has led a campaign
against the Marines at home in Berkeley, where Code Pink has called the
Marines "assassins" and she has likened the Marine recruiting office to a
"porn shop."
The Obama campaign has rejected two requests by pro-troop organizations
that Obama renounce Evans.
Kristinn Taylor, co-leader of the D.C. Chapter of FreeRepublic.com, an
independent grassroots group comprised of veterans, military families and
other patriotic Americans, issued the following statement applauding the
RNC and reiterating the call for Obama to renounce Evans:
"Barack Obama has said he knows he needs to earn the trust of the
military. When he speaks before the Veterans of Foreign Wars today, he
could take a giant step toward earning that trust by renouncing Jodie Evans
and her bundled campaign dollars and denounce her support of the Iraq
insurgency.
"The RNC is to be commended for speaking out against Evans. We hope
that they too will join the call for Obama to renounce Jodie Evans."

Russia considers nuclear missiles for Syria,
DEBKAfile's military sources report Moscow's planned retaliation for America's missile interceptors in Poland and US-Israeli military aid to Georgia may come in the form of installing Iskandar surface missiles in Syria and its Baltic enclave of Kaliningrad.
Russian Baltic and Middle East warships, submarines and long-range bombers may be armed with nuclear warheads, according to Sunday newspapers in Europe.
In Georgia, Russian troops and tanks advanced to within 30 km of Tbilisi Saturday, Aug. 15. A Russian general said Sunday they had started pulling out after president Dimitry Medvedev signed the ceasefire agreement with Georgia and president George W. Bush called again for an immediate withdrawal.
After routing Georgia over the breakaway enclaves of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, Moscow appears to be eying Poland, the Middle East, and possibly Ukraine, as the main arenas for its reprisals.
One plan on the table in Moscow, DEBKAfile's sources report, is the establishment of big Russian military, naval and air bases in Syria and the release of advanced weapons systems withheld until now to Iran (the S-300 air-missile defense system) and Syria (the nuclear-capable 200 km-range Iskandar surface missile).
Shortly before the Georgian conflict flared, Moscow promised Washington not to let Iran and Syria have these sophisticated pieces of hardware.
The Iskander's cruise attributes make its launch and trajectory extremely hard to detect and intercept. If this missile reaches Syria, Israel will have to revamp its anti-missile defense array and Air Force assault plans for the third time in two years, as it constitutes a threat which transcends all its defensive red lines.
Moscow's war planners know this and are therefore considering new sea and air bases in Syria as sites for the Iskander missiles. Russia would thus keep the missiles under its hand and make sure they were not transferred to Iran. At the same time, Syrian crews would be trained in their operation.
DEBKAfile's military sources report Syrian president Bashar Assad will be invited to Moscow soon to finalize these plans in detail.
Military spokesmen in Moscow said Saturday and Sunday that Russian military planners to started redesigning the nation’s strategic plans for a fitting response to America's decision to install 10 missile interceptors in Poland and the war developments in Georgia.
The chairman of the Israeli Knesset foreign affairs and defense committee, Tzahi Hanegbi, spoke out strongly Sunday, Aug. 17, against treasury plans to slash the defense budget. He warned that the military faced grave confrontations in the coming year - possibly on several fronts.
Rice signs missile defense deal with Poland
Expect the games to begin real soon...
The Russian link to terrorism is going to be revealed soon....BOOM
WARSAW, Poland - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and her Polish counterpart signed a deal Wednesday to build a U.S. missile defense base in Poland, an agreement that prompted an infuriated Russia to warn of a possible attack against the former Soviet satellite.
The deal to install 10 U.S. interceptor missiles just 115 miles from Russia's westernmost frontier also has strained relations between Moscow and the West, ties that already troubled by Russia's invasion of its former Soviet neighbor, U.S. ally Georgia, earlier this month.
Rice and Polish Foreign Minister Radek Sikorski signed the deal Wednesday morning.
"It is an agreement which will help us to respond to the threats of the 21st century," she said afterward.

McCain takes 5-point lead over Obama-Reuters poll
Even with the affirmative action advantage by the socialist media, OBAMA IS STILL LOSING LOL.........
Now you know why he is hiding that America hating wife of his. I wonder if she is invited to the DNC convention? PATHETIC.........
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In a sharp turnaround, Republican John McCain has opened a 5-point lead on Democrat Barack Obama in the U.S. presidential race and is seen as a stronger manager of the economy, according to a Reuters/Zogby poll released on Wednesday.
McCain leads Obama among likely U.S. voters by 46 percent to 41 percent, wiping out Obama's solid 7-point advantage in July and taking his first lead in the monthly Reuters/Zogby poll.
The reversal follows a month of attacks by McCain, who has questioned Obama's experience, criticized his opposition to most new offshore oil drilling and mocked his overseas trip.

Rice says Russia playing 'dangerous game' with bomber flights
WASHINGTON, August 19 (RIA Novosti) - Condoleezza Rice has said the Bush administration is unhappy with flights by Russian strategic bombers near U.S. borders and accused Moscow of playing a "dangerous game."
Talking about flights by Tu-95 Bear bombers, the U.S. secretary of state told journalists Monday: "We've had Russian Bear flights along the Norwegian coast...even along the borders with the United States which...is a very dangerous game, and perhaps one the Russians want to reconsider."
"Nobody needs Russian strategic aviation along America's coasts," she added.Rice made the comments as she left for an emergency session of the North Atlantic Council in Brussels, which is due to meet Tuesday to consider relations with Moscow following a cessation in hostilities between Russia and Georgia over South Ossetia.
The emergency meeting was called last week by Washington, which accused Russia of a "disproportionate" response after Georgia launched a military offensive against South Ossetia August 8 to try and regain control over the breakaway region, prompting Russia to send several hundred tanks and thousands of troops into the region.
Rice said the main goal of the meeting of the 26-member alliance was to deny Russia its "strategic objective" by backing Georgian democracy.
She also accused Russia of trying to assert its influence in the region "by military means." She added that Moscow had harmed "its own reputation" with its response to the Georgian attack.
Russia resumed strategic bomber patrols, often escorted by NATO planes, over the Pacific, Atlantic and Arctic oceans last August following an order signed by then-president Vladimir Putin.

Liberal Media Giving Obama Affirmative Action Coverage
Democrat Barack Obama has had about a 3 to 1 advantage over Republican John McCain in Post Page 1 stories since Obama became his party's presumptive nominee June 4. Obama has generated a lot of news by being the first African American nominee, and he is less well known than McCain -- and therefore there's more to report on. But the disparity is so wide that it doesn't look good.
In overall political stories from June 4 to Friday, Obama dominated by 142 to 96. Obama has been featured in 35 stories on Page 1; McCain has been featured in 13, with three Page 1 references with photos to stories on inside pages. Fifteen stories featured both candidates and were about polls or issues such as terrorism, Social Security and the candidates' agreement on what should be done in Afghanistan.

Today's Russia Compared to Nazi Germany
The whitewashing of anything socialist or communist is certainly their agenda, because it is the ideology that they embrace. So, they point their finger at fascism and Hitler to convince people that they are so much better and different, but that is false. Both fascism and communism lead to one thing, dead bodies and a dictator.
Since the end of WWII, it has been the communist agenda to make the differences between communism and fascism so complex and far apart. This is all for the purpose of deception.
Both Stalin and Hitler were socialists and they even signed a PACT. The American liberals embraced Hitler until he turned against the Russians.
Russia Sends Chechen Mercenaries to Georgia
The FSB got caught in the act planting explosives in a Moscow apartment building and this is never reported in the media. Why? Because the socialists in the media want people to continue to be misinformed as far as the Russian and Islamic terrorist connection.
Gee, they are building nuke plants for Iran and selling weapons to Syria. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see what is really going on here.
Putin made sure that he killed the anti-Soviet Muslims in Chechnya and he recruited the rest that were anti-American and anti-Israel.

Russia may arm Baltic fleet with nuclear warheads
'Russia's reaction is unfortunate'
According to Sunday Times, nuclear warheads could be supplied to submarines, cruisers and fighter bombers of Russia's Baltic fleet based between Poland and Lithuania
According to the report, the proposal to bring back nuclear warheads was condemned by Kurt Volker, the US ambassador to Nato, who said he knew of the threat.
“It is really unfortunate that Russia chooses to react by putting nuclear warheads in different places – if indeed it does that – when the rest of the world is not looking at some kind of old-fashioned superpower conflict,” he said.

Russian Stock Market Loses $7 Billion
Here is something else the Russians can blame on the USA....
MOSCOW, August 17 (RIA Novosti) - The armed conflict between Georgia and Russia over breakaway South Ossetia wiped $7 billion off the Russian stock market, Russia's Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin said on Sunday.
Georgia launched major ground and air attacks to seize control of South Ossetia on August 8, prompting Russia to send in tanks and thousand of troops. Russia announced on August 12 a halt to its operation to force Georgia to accept peace.
According to Kudrin, capital outflow hit $6 billion on August 8 and another $1 billion on August 11.
Kudrin said net capital inflow in 2008 will be slightly below the $30-40 billion figure predicted by the Central Bank of Russia.
"Capital inflow will be slightly below the official forecast due to the persisting global financial crisis and certain political risks that have emerged recently and influenced foreign investors' behavior," Kudrin said.

Russia- Our Cold War Enemy Reemerges
24 March 2005: Russia, the full time enemy of the United States for the duration of the cold war, then a supposed ally of the United States for about fifteen years, has resumed the role as an enemy of the United States again. No, this isn’t being spoken of at every kitchen table in America and our missiles are not on high alert awaiting an incoming strike from Russian made ICBM’s. One must have noticed, however, that the Russians have chosen sides with sworn enemies of the United States and are supplying arms, technology and training to those enemies.
One has to wonder why the Russians have chosen this road to certain conflict. What are the reasons for their blatant anti-American behavior recently? Is it bitterness over their collapse as a world power that made America appear as the reigning champion afterwards? Is it for economic reasons? Are there elements of the old communist regime still deeply imbedded in Russian politics and the Kremlin that secretly dream of the destruction of America? Or are they simply fulfilling their destiny?
Russia paved the way for terrorists to obtain nuclear materials through several avenues and methods. The primary acquisition of the materials was due to poor security at their nuclear facilities shortly after they went “belly up” as a super power. Plants with materials left unguarded and essentially unsecured in the open which resulted in thefts of these materials by not only outsiders, but by Russians themselves in the fields of science and technology, the Russian Mafia and most certainly military and intelligence personnel who wished to capitalize on their country’s economical and political demise. On the “black market,” a Russian in possession of a block of plutonium and a capable buyer could indeed become a wealthy man in short order.
It has long been established that suitcase style nuclear devices, uranium and plutonium as well as missiles themselves have been stolen from Russian facilities and redistributed to the highest bidders worldwide through the black market over the years. Most of these items were acquired by terrorist regimes, rogue states and terrorists themselves. Russian scientists have disappeared from the face of the earth not because of foul play, but instead because they have sold their services, knowledge and technology to the highest bidders. These scientist and technology types are not limited to the nuclear field of expertise but also include experts in biological and chemical weaponry as well. This very same type of corruption is also occurring in Pakistan as they have had their share of scientists and technicians sell out to terrorists and terrorist regimes worldwide.
Russia has openly supported Iran in their pursuit of nuclear technology, much to the chagrin of the western world. They provided technology for the construction of the nuclear facilities in Iran; according to intelligence reports, they have provided the process technologies for enriching uranium and are currently training over 1000 Iranians to make these facilities fully operational by next year. The world, especially the United States has officially placed Iran on notice for their nuclear activities, yet Russia has completely disregarded the wishes of the U.S. and her allies and continues to supply and assist Tehran in their nuclear endeavors. These are not the actions of an ally or even a fair weather friend. Russia has chosen sides, and it is not the side of the United States.
This issue cannot be ignored much longer as it is only paving the way to disaster. There are many tensions in the region and Israel is the most likely target of Iran in the near future. Turkey is indicating a loosely worded alliance with Syria, who is already aligned with Iran, a significant perpetuator of all radical Islamic terrorist activities. When you throw Russia and their whorish attitude and still available nuclear capabilities into the mix, the potential outcome is deadly. This is an issue that will not stay on the back burner for very long as it is already slowly emerging to the forefront as a threat to the stability of that region. The problems and potential for irreversible deadly actions is immense and in my opinion, from a threat priority standpoint, far outweigh any immediate threat that North Korea poses to the U.S.
Granted, what is happening in North Korea now is dangerous and must be addressed. What is happening in that particular region that currently encompasses Syria, Iran, Turkey and Russia is a much greater threat to the United States and the western world as this region and the alliances forming within will be at the forefront of the next major world conflict.
Someday, everyone will understand why it was critical to remove Saddam Hussein and have a US presence directly adjacent to this cast of deadly characters.
Be safe. Stay vigilant.

Following the dismantling of the Berlin wall and the Soviet empire, many believed that the Russians suddenly became our friends. Despite a massive amount of evidence and numerous examples to the contrary, countless Americans continue to believe that the intentions of the Russian leadership, particularly those of Russian "Tsar" Vladimir Putin, are innocuous.
It seemed like few were paying attention as Russia was selling billions of dollars of missiles, fighter jets, and nuclear technology to our enemies, including Iran. Fewer still seemed to notice Putin building strategic alliances with Iran, Libya and Syria.
Now that Russia has attacked Georgia - an ally of the United States, will more people begin to take notice?
