2. No biggie
We do it it better, though. We wait for wedding parties.



If Russia decides to invade any sovereign nation it declares is a risk to their national interests or security, how can the U.S. do anything but sit idly by?

After all, we set the modern standard for pre-emptive warfare.

You can lie in order to do it, and no one will do a damn thing, if you have a nuclear arsenal backing you up.

5. How nice of them. What good fortune the recipients have.
As a good American, I know that when bombs and missiles fall on civilians it means Freedom is on the March!

6. left scores of civilians dead and wounded.


A man carries a boy, who was injured in South Ossetian province capital Tskhinvali and evacuated in the town of Dzhava, South Ossetia, Saturday, Aug. 9, 2008. Georgia, a U.S. ally whose troops have been trained by American soldiers, launched a major offensive overnight Friday to retake control of it's breakaway province. Russia sent hundreds of tanks and troops into South Ossetia and bombed Georgian towns Saturday in a major escalation of the conflict that has left scores of civilians dead and wounded.
