"Vlady, you remember when I said I had looked into your eyes and saw a man with whom we could do business? Well, I am hoping that when I was looking into your eyes, that you were looking back.
I would hope that what you saw was a man who does not suffer fools lightly. I hope you saw a man who says what he means and means what he says! The Georgians are our friends, and if anything, I am loyal to my friends.
You remember Saddam Hussein, don't you? When it became obvious that someone had to do something about the guy -- you know, when someone had to finally enforce those sixteen United Nations resolutions that you voted for -- I put out a call to all of our friends asking for volunteers to help.
Georgia stepped up and volunteered. So did a whole lot of other former Soviet satellite countries -- I guess they know a lot about despots, ya think? Anyhow, Georgia stepped up and joined the coalition.
As for Russia....well, I got the birthday card -- nice card by the way -- still waiting on the military support.
Well now, we are sending aid to the Georgian people. That aid will be delivered by the US Military. Beside humanitarian aid, you DO know what else those planes carry, right? I don't need to draw a map, right?
Now our Navy will be there to help out, as well. Vlad, MY Navy is bigger than YOUR navy, so don't F--- with me, you dig?
Anyhow, Condi will be coming over, and she will make it clear just what our position will be. Always nice to have a chance to talk with ya. We've gotta do lunch sometime -- why don't you have your people get with my people and we can set it up."
