Clinton v. Putin
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had some tough words for Russia today in an interview with the BBC. "There are areas where we just flat out disagree and we are not going to paper those over," Clinton said an interview before a meeting with her Russian counterpart in Geneva. "We will not recognize the breakaway areas of Georgia, we do not recognize any sphere of influence on the part of Russia and their having some kind of veto power over who can join the EU or who can join NATO.” She also, however, reproached the Bush administration’s approach to Russia: "There was a rather confrontational approach toward Russia in the prior administration. How much that contributed to Russian behavior I think is a legitimate question to ask.”

Wow, I really miss Rice and a real sense of security. Maybe Russia can fix our economy. Toss them a missle shield to get thier cooperation. No wonder clinton has that edgy laugh.

You go Girl! Show them what an Iron Lady is. And why you would been a great president.
Madame Secretary has trained for decades to play hard and if need be- rough. What they called on Star Treck "a worthy opponent". Condaleeza Rice didn't have a pair; I think we understand Mrs. Clinton's gifts in that regard, and we're lucky to have her in these strange times.

Condasleeza was so far up Bushes ass, had no mind of her own and was wrong on mostly everything she touched. Go back to your oil tanker. Clinton is brilliant and tough, I finally believe we have a leader in foreign relations. And oh that stupid waste of money "star wars shield" thought up by the movie actor Reagan is a waste of money since it has not worked once in testing. Ugh. cut the losses and line that mess out of the budget.
