Nothing if not brazen

I'll give the Russians credit--they're not backing down one bit in the PR war over their invasion of Georgia: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121919150258855111.html?mod=djemEditorialPage. So much of the Russian position is foolishness, of course, but to the useful idiots here in the West, these are words from heaven. I just read a letter to the editor in today's Philadelphia Inquirer parroting the typical leftist tripe that the United States has no right to comment about what is going on Georgia because of "what we did to Iraq", blah, blah, blah. As if deposing a genocidal maniac like Saddam Hussein is morally equivalent to a totalitarian state brazenly occupying a neighbouring democracy. Such is the left's thinking, however............
