Peace in our time

Given all the noise this administration likes to make about the dangers of appeasement, the rather pathetic response it has made about Russia's invasion of Poland, er, I mean, Georgia, speaks volumes. At first essentially turning a blind eye to the conflict hoping it would go away, the President finally felt compelled to speak out against Russia's brazen invasion a week later.

If anything, the President's appeasement of Russia and reluctance to initially rock the boat underscores the U.S.'s decline in power under this administration and its desperation to stay on Russia's good side.

If this President wishes to be consistent in his policies and is sincere about protecting democracy around the world, he should be prepared to rattle his saber a little louder and threaten Russia militarily. Aren't we the world's policeman?

But we all know this President is a pussy who only pays lip service to the idea of protecting democracy, willing to invade for a personal grudge rather than to protect innocent lives.

At left: It's not Hitler we should be comparing the President to. It's appeaser/coward Neville Chamberlain.
