And yes, that goes double for the McSame campaign, for both of them have been blustering for the last week about punishing Russia.
Besides the Russians' holding the high ground in the moral department (as in the Bush Administration's hypocrisy has rarely been both so vast and so obvious on this issue), it is now starting to penetrate the thick skulls and the dim bulbs of the Bush White House that this time, they do not hold all the cards. In fact, as a lot of us non-Bush bloggers have been pointing out for the last several days, if we get into a game of "fuck me? Well, fuck you" with the Russians, they have a pretty good hand to play.
This is the time where we really need objective, sober analysis and careful, deliberate thought from our government.
Which is precisely what we are not going to get from either George Bush or John McCain.

I wonder what Obama's position is on this missile defence system that shrub has stupidly rammed down the throats of Russia? If we really needed this system, we could have, as the Russians suggested, put it in Russia. THAT would have demonstrated our desire to work with them.
