Mikhail Saakashvili rips Russia a new one
One of the alltime greatest descriptions of Russia & Russians
Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili had a joint press conference the other day with US Secretary of State, Dr. Condaleeza Rice. During the event, he took time to call the Russians like he saw them.
Punctuating his comments with powerful hand gestures, he noted that Georgia has done so much in recent years: built schools, hospitals, wonderful kindergartens, new roads, an amusement park, a theater with a snazzy new Dolby stereo system, a concert hall, and even an Olympic sized pool. And then he really lets it rip by calling the Russians exactly what those lowlifes are:
“Everything that is nice and new makes them sick! You are dealing with people who despise everything human, everything nice, everything modern, everything European, everything civilized.”
Right on, President Saakashvili! I cheered wildly at your clear commentary! I’m on your side and so are millions of Americans!
And may I add, you have quite a lovely young bride! Kudos, you are a King of Men!

You done good Vinnie Vegas: My sentiments exactly. I watched his speech and I was cheering, yet heartbroken for his country. He sure laid it on the USA and other nations for not coming to his aid as well and he stated it in easy terminology anyone could understand. But you’ve already stated it all and well!
The Russians suck – nihilistic, nattering nabobs of negativity! Call them what they are – their plan for equality for all is to drag everyone down to their level, not to elevate themselves to our level.
This was not a politician’s teleprompter prepared speech, this was from the heart, from pain, from frustration. Odd how the world deems some worthy of support and not others.
Oh, excellent post, Vinnie.
I’m with the Georgians on this one! ;-)
Sounds like he could be describing the Muslims–those are my feelings about them too. That Pootie Poot is one evil dude.
B-mom,
I agree. You seldom hear that kind of directness and clarity on the international stage. It’s much easier to hem, haw, and equivocate.
He is absolutely right, and so are you!
From the movie Patton:
Excuse me, sir.
General Katkov would like to know
if you’ll join him. . .
. . .to drink to the surrender
of Germany.
My compliments to the general.
Please inform him that I do not care
to drink with him. . .
. . .or any other Russian
son of a bitch.
Sir. . .
. . .I cannot tell the general that.
You tell him that.
Tell him word for word.
