Time Text
Welcome to today's edition of the Rush 24-7 podcast.
Zowie, my friends, so many topics out there today.
So much has happened since I was last with you on Friday.
Gonna have to talk fast today, and you're going to have to listen fast to squeeze it all in.
We got the Russians.
Or should I say the once and future Soviets?
We have the Chikoms.
We have the Olympics.
We have Obama failing the 3 a.m. test.
Big time.
He's playing golf in Hawaii.
And nobody in the media is giving a darn about it.
When Bush or anybody goes plays golf during world crises, the media is all over the place.
We've got the Brecht girl.
Uh and the media, which I think is almost a bigger story than the Brett Girl story himself, is the media cover-up of the of the Brett Girl story.
And Pelosi, Pelosi seems to have caved on the drilling bit, but she hasn't.
It's all smoke and mirrors.
She's just responding to public pressure.
She's going to allow debate to take place in there, but uh if she has the final word and she will, there will not be any substantive change in the house on uh on drilling.
So uh we've got that plus whatever happens over the course of the program here as we uh conduct it today.
Telephone number if you want to be on the program is 800-282-2882.
The email address is L Rushbo at EIB net.com.
Let me give you a few thoughts on each of these things, and then we will go into detail as the program unfolds.
First off, on the on the Russians.
It is an absolute laugh to listen to Obama opine about this.
He can be said one of his first statements was to say that this does not is not fit well with the Olympic ideal, uh, what the Russians did going into Georgia.
Georgia is an ally of ours.
We, uh, ladies and gentlemen, there's not much we can do about it right now.
And even the AP references this, but I find it fascinating.
The Russian bear is back.
The United States doesn't seem to be able to do much about it.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Obama said he has done something about it.
Wait till you hear the sound bites coming up from Virginia Governor Tim Kane, who actually sent on a phone call today.
This guy's so brazenly desirous of the VP slot.
Virginia Governor Tim Kane, who may be the only politici dumber than Obama, actually said that he was gratified that Medvedev listened to Obama's words and ordered the ceasefire.
But there's no ceasefire.
They're still pounding.
The Jets are still dropping bombs.
There is no ceasefire at all.
The Russians are just saying so.
The uh but this AP story.
The Russian bear is back.
United States doesn't seem to be able to do much about what do you mean we can't do much about it?
What they mean is our military is occupied elsewhere.
What wait a minute.
I thought I thought with the Messiah, we wouldn't need the military anymore.
He's a citizen of the world, and his words alone will bring peace, everlasting peace to the world.
And yet here's the drive-by media unwittingly sabotaging the very premise of Obama's existence.
The uh situation there is it's it's very clear what's going on.
Ralph Peters New York Post has this exactly right.
The Russian, this isn't this is not something it happened overnight.
To get all these divisions over the Caucasus Mountains has taken a long time.
This has been strategically planned to time with the Olympics to try to make the Chikoms mad, but the problem is the Chicoms probably love this uh because the Chicoms love the demonstration.
The United States can't do much about this right now.
Well, uh a lot of people think the Chicoms would be upset and mad at the Russians for stealing their thunder at the Olympics, but the Chaicoms got what they wanted out of the Olympics with an opening ceremony.
Everything after that is icing on the cake.
The Chicoms got everything they wanted out of the opening ceremony.
I got barfed Friday night, listening to these NBC commentators glorify the state.
The communist state and how it will care and protect and provide for every citizen.
And they said this in glowing terms.
Now I understand that they don't want the plug-pulled by the Chikom government on the telecasts.
But police.
I mean, it was just it was over the top.
Some of this stuff was.
That ceremony, yeah, it was dazzling.
There's no question.
But can I tell you what I saw in that ceremony?
Okay, who's putting that ceremony on?
The Chikoms.
And I don't care what the video out of there that NBC is showing you looks like, that is still a repressive regime.
What I saw was 15,000 kids who all looked the same, who were all doing the same thing, who were all behaving the same way.
I saw sameness.
I didn't see any individuality at all.
I saw 15,000 people at slave wages, no doubt, following orders or else.
Now it was great.
It was the pageantry was fabulous.
The performance of those people in that opening ceremony was great.
The synchronization was flawless.
They've only been rehearsing for this for probably five years.
And they probably got, you know, some dietary bonuses if they did well.
But I saw sameness.
I just I I saw no individuality whatsoever.
I saw exactly what the Soviet communist model, the Marxist model for society is.
One person's as easily interchangeable as somebody else as like we now have learned that that cute little girl in pigtails sang the opening uh the hymn to the motherland is what that was.
Hymn to the motherland.
That's probably the one time Obama does clasp his heart when the Chicoms sing hymn to the motherland, but nevertheless, we we find out that that little girl didn't sing it.
She lip synced it, that the actual girl that sang it was pulled out at the last minute because she got bucked teeth.
The Chicom said she didn't look good enough to be on TV.
So they pulled her and they had that little girl in pigtails go out there and lip sync the thing.
Then we also found that they faked some of the graphics, you know, the footprints and the fireworks marching across that stupid looking stadium they call the bird nest.
I mean, it's a huge that's the ugliest looking stadium I've ever seen.
From the outside, that is the ugliest looking stadium I've ever seen.
But nevertheless, ladies and gentlemen, they faked that, they faked this.
Who knows what else they're faking over there?
But I saw sameness.
But I also saw this.
I saw this.
This is the ChICOMs telling the world, you see this?
15,000 people, 15,000 people dressed just alike, 15,000 people with drums, 15,000 people doing everything as we tell them to do when we tell them to do it.
Imagine if they had guns.
There was a message in that opening ceremony, a bunch of different messages, and most people sitting there dazzled by it because they've heard all these things about China.
And of course, the pictures out of China made China look just like uh, you know, South Bend, Indiana, for crying out loud.
I'm not comparing pollution.
Don't miss, I'm not insulting Indiana here.
I'm just they get cute little neighborhoods and uh kids go to little schools, and uh it's all just it's it's wonderful.
But we'll have more on all that uh coming up.
This Russia and Georgia thing, it's clear.
This is long planned to time with the with the Olympics.
It's also it's all about NATO.
It's about keeping Georgia out of NATO.
Vladimir Putin is KGB, and nobody ever leaves the KGB.
McCain was right about this.
This is KGB, and there's a great piece.
Victor Davis Hansen today has a fabulous analysis of this.
He stole my own words before I uttered them.
So I can't accuse him of stealing my words.
What this is the Russian nation once again feeling pride.
They have felt snubbed ever since the cold war ended.
And some might say, and I wouldn't disagree with it, but I don't care.
It's not a big factor.
We weren't the most gracious winners.
You know, we plucked Ukraine away from them, and we snubbed them in a number of different ways.
We did send some people over there trying to teach them democracy.
That snubbed them too.
They're feeling pride.
As Victor Davis Hansen says, as they go into Georgia and South Ossetia and start murdering innocent civilians.
You're not gonna see Russian citizens marching in Moscow, no blood for oil signs.
You're not gonna see Russian citizens demanding that the humanitarian aid, the Russian citizenry is gonna stand up and applaud because they got their national pride back.
And the and the and the the Putin government is uh is doing everything.
It's it's sending a message too.
You can't stop us.
Only by our good graces are we going to stop.
You can't stop us from bombing any pipelines.
You can't stop us.
See, the big difference now between the Russians and the Soviets, with the price of oil, the Russians now have money.
They didn't have money when we were doing SDI.
Their economy had fallen flat.
They were a third world nation with a with a first world military, but now they've got oil money.
And they provide natural gas and oil for much of Europe.
And they know as well as you and I do that Europe can't and won't defend itself.
NATO's even got, you know, problems getting in gear.
And what they do not want is Georgia in NATO and they don't want Ukraine in NATO.
And if we had the guts to put Ukraine in NATO, that would be a good slap back.
But it probably isn't going to happen.
Plus they are dying for Obama to be elected.
When a guy comes out and says this does not comport with the Olympic ideal, they know they're dealing with a patsy.
This is a bigger, if he wants to be JFK, he's on the road.
Khrushchev re Khrushchev absolutely played the violin with JFK, Cuban missile crisis and so forth, and I'm sure Putin, nobody ever leaves the KGB, as looking at this useful idiot, Barack Obama, and salivating.
And so the Chicoms are sending his signals, the world signals, and so is Vladimir Putin of the KGB.
Then the Breck girl.
Almost a bigger story than the Brecht girl, and what what's his mistress calling?
Love lips.
Do you know who she looks like?
In some in some pictures, she looks like Camilla Parker Bowles.
You know, I was wondering if Edwards had Prince Charles envy.
I know.
It's just it's it's uh but she does.
And you can't, you can't deny this in some pictures.
But the bigger story is the media cover-up of this.
And I gotta I gotta tell you, you know, I have no brief for the Clintons, but I gotta say that Howard Wolfson has a point.
If the drive-bys had exposed this when it was known, then Obama may not have won Iowa.
Regardless, it would be a totally different race.
But the drive-bys kept this private on purpose so as to help Obama.
And that you ought to hear, we got a soundbite coming up here of the drive-bys.
It's funny.
Talk about how they dodged a bullet.
What if he had been the nominee?
It would be the end of us, they're saying if he had gotten the nomination.
So we have a lot to do today, a lot to say.
Sit tight, your phone calls will be part of the mix.
We'll get started with all of it right after this.
I'll tell you something else that bothered me about uh Obama's statement on uh Russia and Georgia is the moral equivalence.
He says it's up to Russia and Georgia to engage in a ceasefield.
Georgia was sitting there minding its own business.
It is a democratic ally.
And it's there's no question that Russians are telling everybody that uh you know nations on their borders are not gonna be independent.
They want to start gobbling it up, and they're making it very clear.
Now, his this Obama's statement, one of his earlier, an excerpt from one of his first statements.
The violence taking place along the Black Sea is just miles from Sochi, the site for the winter Olympics in 2014.
It only adds to the tragedy and outrage of the current situation that Russia has acted while the world has come together in peace and athletic competition in Beijing.
This action is wholly inconsistent with the Olympic ideal.
That is the most shallow, the most vapid, the most meaningless comment I can imagine.
This action is wholly inconsistent with the Olympic ideal.
Folks, we are...
It is just amazing who the Democrats have nominated.
By the way, on the Edwards business, there's still some raging controversy out there, and that is whose baby is it?
By the way, there is a video of that.
Edwards refuses to shake his head in time with the music.
Because of course he can't mus up the hair.
Let's go to the audio sound bites.
Uh one of the one of the problems that we face in the uh problem with the Georgia and Russia is that we're in the midst of a presidential campaign, so there are three people speaking.
You have McCain speaking, you have Bush speaking, and you have the presumptive president speaking.
Citizen of the world.
no boundaries, no nations, no borders.
We're all just gonna love each other.
Anyway, let's start in order.
This is McCain yesterday in Erie, Pennsylvania.
This pattern of attack appears aimed not at restoring any status quo ante in South Ossetti, but rather toppling the democratically elected government of Georgia.
This would be unacceptable to all the democratic countries of the world.
And should draw us together in universal condemnation of Russian aggression.
It's gonna condemnation a universal con we can condemn it all we want, then it's not gonna stop them.
They're the Russians.
It's a KGB.
Remember, no one ever leaves the KGB.
Here is President Bush yesterday from the White House.
There's evidence that Russian forces may soon begin bombing the civilian airport in the Capitol City.
These reports are accurate.
These Russian actions would represent a dramatic and brutal escalation of the conflict in Georgia.
And these actions would be inconsistent with assurances we have received from Russia that its objectives were limited to restoring the status quo in South Asepia that existed before fighting began on August the sixth.
These actions have substantially damaged Russia's standing in the world.
And these actions jeopardize Russia's relations with the United States and Europe.
It is time for Russia to be true to its word and to act to end this crisis.
Jeopardize Russia's relations with the U.S. and Europe.
For a lot of its oil and natural gas.
You know, Bill Richardson said one of the stupidest things.
In trying to be Obama's VP, Bill Richardson, the governor of New Mexico, when I'm going to paraphrase, I've got this somewhere in the stack, but he said something along the lines.
This just goes to show how the Bush administration has not talked enough with the Russians, has not engaged in proper diplomacy with the Bush administration.
That's so absurd.
The president has practically made Vladimir Putin a blood brother.
Putin's been over here at the Texas ranch barbecuing.
Bush had been over there.
They were yucking it up and laughing at the Olympics while this whole thing was going on.
On uh on Friday night, Saturday, whatever it was.
This this uh we've we've we've invested a lot of talk with uh with Vladimir Putin.
And now, of course, here is the Messiah.
We should continue to push for a United Nations Security Council resolution calling for an immediate end to the violence.
You idiot is a clear violation of the sovereignty and internationally recognized borders of Georgia.
Yeah.
The UN must stand up for the sovereignty of its members and for peace in the world.
The UN, where where are you?
I thought you had the power to end conflicts like this, Messiah, the power of your word.
Doesn't he know Russia's on the Security Council?
They would just veto any resolution.
Now get this.
Piesta resistance, Tim Kane, Fox and Friends this morning, he is the uh the governor of Virginia.
How would you be advising Obama in this international crisis?
The Senator's goal was to be tough and smart.
And so when the action happened on Thursday, he immediately called for a ceasefire, condemned the unwarranted use of force by Russia.
It was a bad crisis for the world.
It required tough words, but also a smart approach to call on the international community to step in.
And I'm very, very happy that the Senator's request for a ceasefire has been complied with.
Did you catch that?
The governor of Virginia just said, I'm very, very happy that Obama's request for a ceasefire has been complied with by the Russians.
I'm speechless.
Grab audio soundbite number four and play this again.
You've got to listen here to the last line.
This is the uh the brilliant governor of Virginia, Tim Kane on the phone with Gretchen Carlson this morning on Fox and Friends.
And Gretchen Carlson, a former Miss America said, How would you be advising Obama if in fact you were his pick as vice president with this international crisis?
Do you think Obama's response was the right one?
The Senator's goal was to be tough and smart.
And so when the action happened on Thursday, he immediately called for a ceasefire, condemned the unwarranted use of force by Russia.
It was a bad crisis for the world.
It required tough words, but also a smart approach to follow the international community to step in.
Now listen, listen.
And I'm very, very happy that the senator's request for a ceasefire has been complied with this.
That's just the audacity of audacity.
This is just unbelievable.
This guy is so I what a what a prostitute.
Do anything to be picked as vice president.
This is the biggest suck up I have ever heard in politics.
Not even Obama buys this.
Not even the Messiah thinks he had anything to do with it, because it hasn't stopped over there.
So the Russians, according to Tim K and the Russians, and by the way, by the way, speaking of the Russians, guess whose side of this Gorbachev is on?
The Russians.
Gorbachev's out there saying that the Georgians provoked this.
Well, how did they provoke it?
They provoked it by being a democratic free nation, about to join NATO, going back and forth on that.
So the liberals' favorite communist.
Mikhail Gorbachev sides with Russia, which of course will stand him in continued good stead with the American left, which is now, I mean, I'm the American, let's go on nuts over the prospect of the Soviet Union coming back.
Because that'll stabilize the world.
That will eliminate the threat posed to the world by us and our nuclear arsenal.
But back to Obama.
So the Russians apparently, according to Tim Kane, heard Obama call for a ceasefire, and then they complied.
And Cain, Tim Kane says that that was both a strong and smart position on Obama's part.
Well, then didn't Russia ignore Obama's declaration in Berlin?
That we are all global citizens.
Obama goes to Berlin, makes a speech for all one world, we're all one citizen, we're all global citizens.
Conflicts are over.
Apparently the Russians didn't listen then.
But now all of a sudden, with Obama on the golf course, half a planet away in Hawaii, all of a sudden Putin and Medvedev heard what Obama said, started biting their nails, uh-oh.
Oh God, we're caught.
Pull back.
Cease fire.
Don't make me barf.
See how see how powerful Obama is, even from a golf course.
Now, ladies and gentlemen, uh, we have awakened to the reality here that despite what an inexperienced street activist said in Berlin a few weeks ago, and that's what Obama is.
140 days in the Senate, seven years as a street activist.
He's a street activist.
And despite what an inexperienced street activist said in Berlin a few weeks ago, that we are global citizens, that there are borders.
Nation states were not global citizens after all.
None of what he said is true.
Also, the United States is not the cause of the world's ills, although wait for the left to try to twist this.
If we hadn't meddled in Georgia's affairs and made them democratic, that would not have teed off Putin and the boys.
No, look at if these guys can massage what they have waited, covering Obama and not covering Edwards.
You know how easy it is for them to blame the United States for things.
You watch.
Give it time.
Just give it time.
So um, guess what?
We're gonna have to at all times be prepared to confront hostile regimes despite Obama's activism speech in Berlin.
All this baloney about global citizens and one world and diplomacy.
I mean, it all sounds wonderful.
It sounds so progressive.
It sounds so hopeful.
What it is is dangerous.
Naive rhetoric.
How do you think the Russians view Obama?
How do you think they viewed his speech?
Do you think they liked what they heard from the street activist in Berlin?
Of course they did.
They love Obama.
The Russians and most of our enemies would love nothing more than to see the election of Obama.
They view him as weaker and more incompetent than even Jimmy Carter.
And they love the fact don't forget they've got money now.
And don't forget they beat us into space.
And don't forget they beat us with satellites.
And they had nukes.
They just ran out of money.
They've got money now.
And they've obviously been retooling and rebuilding their military.
And they've been repositioning it.
And we've seen all this.
Putin's been flying to bear bombers all over the world, reinstituting those exercises, coming close, you know, playing little war games, uh dangerously flirting with the international borders in the sky.
This is the warning signs have all been there.
They love the fact that the Messiah does not want America to build up its own energy sources.
They like folks, you know, the United States is a great nation at risk in a dangerous world.
And as our enemies hear Democrats and liberals talk about not developing our own energy sources and resources, they love it.
They absolutely love it.
They love his rhetoric about the age of oil being over.
Tell them.
The age of oil is what has led to their revitalization.
Because they know, Putin and the boys of the KGB.
They know what we know, which is that a prescription for American economic and national security disaster awaits if the election turns to Barack Obama.
We have nothing to replace oil and gas.
There is nothing.
There are no alternatives.
There are no renewables.
There's nothing to replace it.
The world knows it.
Obama and his cultist followers, ladies and gentlemen, are delusional.
Their attitudes are not based in reality, but rather they are based in arrogance and self-aggrandizement.
They don't learn from history other than what they're told at Harvard about how bad and rotten America is.
They never forget that.
They've been taught that, and they have lapped that up and they love it.
They believe the world can be remade as they want it to be should they come to power, and the world will begin all over again when that happens.
People who don't know, I'm about to share with you a profundity, my friends.
People who don't know what they don't know are fools.
People who are in power and don't know what they don't know are very dangerous.
And Obama doesn't know what he doesn't know.
Recklessly dangerous.
By the way, the Communist Party USA has come out and endorsed Obama.
We have details on that coming up.
See, Obama, like most liberals, hides a genuine contempt for the military.
He has contempt for America's superpower status.
We are no different than any other superpower.
In fact, we're more guilty in his eyes.
And this is the mindset that he would bring to any diplomacy with the Russians or others.
In other words, Barack Obama would be operating from the position that any pretext or grievance asserted by our adversaries and enemies have at least some merit.
He echoes them already.
He's already echoing criticisms of this country on foreign soil and to seven-year-old kids in this country.
So when the person in charge of protecting our society is of Obama's ilk, he is incapable of acting in our best interests.
This is the problem.
With the Democrats nominating such a radical, inexperienced street activist for the office of the presidency.
It is utterly irresponsible what they have done.
So, as it is always, it is up to us.
It is up to society in general in the election in November to fix this.
To fix the Democrat nominating process by rejecting the outcome of Obama as president.
And I, by the way, you know me, my friends, I'm not I'm not saying this is somebody who's cheerleading for the McCain team.
I say this as somebody who sees the world in its stark reality and cares about his country's well-being.
And I have fear for it in the hands of Obama and the people he would surround himself with.
He's now out in Hawaii playing golf.
Don't get me wrong.
I like Hawaii, I like golf too.
But haven't Republican candidates and presidents come under fire for playing golf while big events are occurring in the world?
But that's okay.
That's okay because the brilliant governor of Virginia, Tim Kane, has just credited Obama with solving the crisis in Georgia and South Ossetia by saying that Medvedev listened to Obama's words.
Meanwhile, the fighting goes on, the bombing still occurs.
Not much of a ceasefire has actually taken place.
A quick timeout will be back.
We will continue right after this.
Get your phone calls in, plus a whole lot of audio sound bites today that are hilarious.
Sit tight.
Okay, a couple things here on the Brett Girl, and then we'll get to your phone calls.
This is Fabio's a great montage here.
By the way, welcome back, Rush Limbaugh in touch and compelling at 800-282-2882.
A montage of uh, well, they're all over the place.
The NBC, CNN, MSNBC, DNC TV.
Uh, what if Edwards had been the nominee?
Had he become the Democratic nominee, that could have jeopardized everything for the Democrats.
If he had been the nominee of the party now, it would have ruined the Democrats' chances.
Had he been a nominee, it would it would be a terrible mess right now.
What if he had become the nominee?
He could have been the Democratic nominee right now.
Where we'd be right now.
If John Edwards had won the Democratic nomination.
What if he had been the nominee?
He could have become the Democratic nominee.
This guy could have been the Democratic nominee.
He could have been the nominee.
What if he'd been the nominee?
The whole Democratic Party goes up and smoke.
Whoa, friends, they are beside themselves at the drive-by media at the bullet that they dodged.
The bullet that Edwards was never going to be the nominee.
And if he were the nominee, the story would still be buried.
The story would still be appearing only in the National Inquirer.
If he were the nominee, the drive-by still would not have said a word about it.
But he was never going to be the nominee.
This guy has been a fraudulent fraud from the get-go.
But some reason women loved this guy.
Because they bought into this family man jargon.
They bought into this commitment, how he loved his wife.
She had cancer.
He she did this family that they used their her illness for his political advancement for their political.
And I'm going to prove that in audio sound bites coming up on this program later today.
Now, this next is David Carr of the New York Times.
He was on reliable sources with Howard Kurtz on CNN Sunday.
And Howard Kurtz said, David Carr, this was a story that wasn't reported at all by the major media.
Now it's all over cable and every place else.
What does it say about the old media gatekeepers that this story got out?
That everybody found out about this without our participation.
Now the question alone is is worth a plaque in the museum.
The qu how did this get out?
How did this get out without us?
But get this answer.
I was taught when I was a young reporter that it's news when we say it is.
I think that's still true.
It's news when we say it is.
It's just who we is has changed.
Members of the public, people with modems, people with cell phones, are now producers, editors.
They can push and push and push on a story until it ends up being acknowledged by everyone.
Did you catch that?
I mean, we've known this.
We've known this, their templates, their narratives.
This is David Carr of the New York Times.
I was taught when I was a young reporter, it's news when we say It is.
That's it.
Sums it all up.
Howard Kurtz, how'd this get out?
How did this get out without us?
Well, it really hasn't got it wasn't news until we decided to make it news.
And they wonder why they're losing readers, advertisers, circulation.
Their monopoly's gone, but they're just as arrogant as Obama, and they refuse to admit it.
And so, just as when the readers call all of us, I can't stand the liberal bias in your paper.
The reaction is screw you.
You don't know how we do what we do.
You're not smart enough.
So the customer's always wrong in the news business.
There's a new, yeah, there's a new we out there.
I think it's still true.
It's news that we say it is, but it's just who we is has changed.
He says with great resentment.
Okay, Mike in Omaha.
You're up first as we go to the phones.
Hello, sir.
Hello.
Yeah, hi.
Um, make it dead over.
Thank you very much.
Hey, uh I think we should stand up with the Georgians.
Um because if we don't stand up with them.
I think this is just the way the Russia.
It's just like football.
Um we have to.
Uh the Russians are picking on the Georgians right now to warm up their armies to get them to see what the world we find.
Okay, how are we how are we going to stand up for Georgia?
What are we going to do?
I'm not sure.
Military force is the only thing I can think of.
Well, we're not going to send ground troops in there.
We know we're going to send air power in there.
That's that's it's uh it's dicey.
I know.
But when do we?
I mean, we are standing up we are standing up for the Georgia, at least McCain and Bush are.
Obama's not.
Obama's blaming the Georgians as well as blaming the Russians.
But we are standing up for the Georgians.
I but there's one thing we can do.
What has Russia rattled to beans is NATO.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization, all of their former client states, the satellite states, desperately want in NATO.
And the Russians do not want that to happen because I'm telling you that the dream of Putin and uh and the KGB, that it's obviously running the country, is to recapture all that territory.
So there was a message in this.
The Russians were sending a message.
Okay, you heathens, you want to distract yourself with a bunch of worthless BS at the Olympics.
Fine, I'll go there and I'll yuck it up.
At the same time, I'm gonna go in and retake Georgia.
And you can't do anything to stop me.
And you're gonna see what I can do when I put my mind to it.
That's Putin's message along with Medvedev.
So he went over to the Olympics too, and he's having a yuck-up good time while all this is going on.
The message is we can do it.
The message is we can go as far as we want because we know you aren't gonna stop us.
The Russians know that Europeans can't stop them.
Europeans long ago gave up their own defense.
And NATO is uh that that that's that's the that's the arena right now.
And they're upset, you know, Georgia were going back and forth on putting Georgia in NATO.
