Last weekend, while visiting China, President Bush was briefed about the conflict between Russia and Georgia. As the advisers were briefing Bush about the fight around the town of Gori, the President interrupted them and asked, "just how far is Gori from Atlanta?" As the advisers sat dumbfounded, Dick "Wild Shot" Cheney, who was was listening in via teleconference came the President's aid. Cheney suggested the President allow him to monitor the situation so Bush could continue to coach the American athletes during the Olympics. Bush replied that was a good idea because he felt his support was very important to the athletes. Bush asked Cheney to let him know if it appeared the fighting would spread into neighboring Florida because he would need to warn his brother.
Seriously - someone let me know how we can expect Russia to listen to our request that they not invade another country when we invaded Iraq?
