George Bush is postponing his annual August vacation in Crawford to address this crisis. Who knows what extra damage he'll do the next few days!

3. That's what the Russians want us to believe. But if Bush is stuck in DC,

5. It is, rather, an attack on the US sphere of influence.
The USA has to be badly embarrassed by this, throughout the region.

The attack sends two rather blunt messages:

The USA cannot and will not protect its interests in the Caucasus/Caspian region.
Russia can, and will.

12. I just realized - getting Bush to give up some of his vacation
time is a feint. The Russians are really doing everything they can to get McCain elected which will destroy this country for sure!
