The United States suggested on Sunday that Russia was interested in "regime change" in Georgia after Moscow rejected Tbilisi's offer of a cease-fire in the separatist enclave of South Ossetia.
Regime change. It's all the fashion, now.
I blame George Bush and his thugs. They have legitimized the idea of forcing regime change on another unwilling nation and they seemed to have the peculiar idea that it was only OK when they did it. Now the Russians are lifting pages from the American playbook and we have little cause to complain about it.

Uhh... I'd put the blame more on Reagan there, if not earlier in American history.
You have a point, Justin. But this administration has made "regime change" a central focus of American foreign policy. Whenever there is a dispute with some pissant 3rd world nation, some lackey in the Bush Administration starts prattling on about "we need regime change."
They have legitimized it. Maybe Russia would have done this anyway, but we have little room to complain.
Off topic, but did you catch any of Bush's antics at the Beijing games?
My God, he's such an embarrassment. Just sitting in the stands his dimwitted, ADD-addled self-centeredness was all too apparent.
Bush is not to blame for the regime change fad--he's a puppet of the neo-con creeps who control him.
Karen,
No, I haven't. If I turn on the TV and I see George Bush or his Evil Overlord, Darth Cheney, I either turn it off or change channels. George Bush could announce in live TV that he just had Cheney executed, commit seppuku before the cameras and I wouldn't watch it.
I cannot wait for this clown's term to end. I can't say it enough.
We better hope no consortium of powers decides WE need a regime change....like if McCain somehow wins by theft.
(I mean, what else are all those "Obama polls ahead by a mere 10-12 %" things setting us up for?)
