ORIGINAL: DarkSteven Don't worry, CL, just chalk this up to yet another mess that Obama will inherit from Bush. Bush's foreign policy has to be the most insane one yet... I expect his strong words will impress Russia just as much as they did after the Georgian invasion. President elects words during the invasion made me laugh hysterically. Russia has nothing to fear from him, they'll hold him in the same disdain as they do most western leaders. We need to get it through our thick skulls that Russia is not a traditional country, their history is one of the most violent and chaotic on earth. As a people, they are almost predisposed to authoritarianism, look at the mess "democracy" left. Putin came in and was USSR lite, and things got done again, albeit with some corruption that was "allowed" then stamped out. They are not us. We will never truly understand them. end of statement
