GEORGE BUSH DOES NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO CALL ANYONE "BULLY"


http://www.nytimes.com/2008/08/16/world/europe/16bushtext.html?ex=1376539200&en=908bb07a9cacab1c&ei=5124&partner=permalink&exprod=permalink

"Russia has damaged its credibility and its relations with the nations of the free world. Bullying and intimidation are not acceptable ways to conduct foreign policy in the 21st century."

If I were Russian, the President's recent remarks would have emanated a stench of hypocrisy.  George Bush might be justified and he might be right but you pretty much give up the moral high ground the when you preemptively invade a nation against the will of the UN, wiretap your citizens, and set up offshore torture facilities.

Please step aside and let Sarkozy do the talking.
