Well wasn’t Bush just yappy today about all the democracy Russia has lost. I don’t think lectures from a guy whose adminstration jails people with no trial (and tortures) is really the role model you want making this particular point to Putin. And of course who can forget attacking countries (with no provocation) with fraudulently manufactured evidence…I could go on here : ))

As much as I am not a fan of Putin (not a big fan of his autocratic ways and his thuggery), and as much as I loathe nuclear proliferation of any sort, I can see where he’s coming from. In fact, I’ve thought for awhile that this would happen.

There was relative stability on the nuclear issue until Bush had to pursue missile defense. My feeling is that we’re at the dawn of a new arms race, and it’s Bush’s doing.

Well there is really never going to be a winnner here. The really sad thing is we should be a lot farther along in being able to get along peacefully at this point in our history. Things are really going backwards, not progressively forward.

Note this memo from Harper’s office.

“Russia has WMDs that can hit anywhere in the North American continent in no more than forty-five minutes. Canada’s new government will not ensure that the North American continent will be targeted by weapons of mass destruction.”
