Seriously, Who Says the Cold War Had to End

So this week we have witnessed what very well could be the beginning of another era of extremely tense of era with a Russia that is intent on putting it self in the first or second spot in order of world super powers. The scary thought is that the only way that Russia could finance this type of second rise is to go right back where they came from and turn into a dictatorship with a centrally directed economy and industrial sector.

With Russia so willing to basically alienate itself from western Europe and the Americas, it is clear that the standard economic and political pressure channels are not going to work. If anyone has any sense they will back down from this incredibly dangerous situation. If anyone wanted to see what an M1A2 can do to a T-80 or a T-90 then this may be their chance if someone doesn't gain some common sense.

Per Mark's request below I will include one of the best mail call quotes I have ever read in the main body of this post:

I seen this story in the paper about the Russian troops invading Georgia, and I just want to say that you liberals that believe in gun control better do a rethink, because Georgia ain't all that far from Maryland. That's all I got to say.
