[i]It’s very distressing to me how little interest there is in this war and the implications of the conflict. The MSM doesn’t care because it doesn’t fit the narrative that everything bad in the world is America’s fault. Besides nobody wants to mess up that wonder coverage of the Olympic games, do they?

But what about conservatives? Over at the National Review Corner, home of all the conservative intellectuals worth noting (yes, I’m being sarcastic), they are overwhelmingly talking about ... John Edwards sex scandal. Look, I enjoy this stuff as much as anyone, but can’t we get our priorities straight? Edwards is nothing. Even John Kerry can’t stand him. Enough already.

This war is not about territory. It’s about sending a message: that Russia is back, it’s got money — lots of oil money, thank you democrats — and it intends to destroy any country that gets in its way. This is a cheap way for Putin to send a message to any other wayward former satellite countries. As anyone with half a brain knows, Russia for war; war everywhere it can get away with it. No longer communist, Russia can best be viewed as fascist and insane (big difference, admittedly).

I have sympathy for the Georgians but I don’t see much we or anyone else can do for them. The Bear is on the march and wants her old den back.

Interesting that last night one of the cable channels had a special about the Winter War between Russia and Finland in 1939-1940. The Russians were willing to leave a million dead on the field for one lousy Finish city. Odd people these Russians. Hopefully she and China will go at it and we can sell to both sides

American had best get its head out of its collective butt, because these creeps and their allies in China and their proxies in the Mid-East mean business. But good luck on that.

BTW, George, you may have noticed compassionate conservatism doesn’t work on these guys.

Oh, yeah ... Phelps won the 400 IM gold setting a world record in Beijing ....
