CITATIONS OF THE DAY:

Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili
"We are living in an Orwellian world where the Russian federation accuses Georgia of genocide and ethnic cleansing and meanwhile they are doing it exactly right now... There was a temporary ceasefire, that was the understanding. From this morning there is large-scale movement of Russian weapons, of shooting, of armed incidents, rampages through different towns and villages of Georgia... Russian troops are in the process of completing ethnic cleansing of all Georgian-populated areas of Abkhazia and South Ossetia."

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov
"The armed forces of the Russian Federation which were sent to South Ossetia to reinforce our peacekeeping forces, they will be withdrawn to Russian territory depending on the extent to which the Georgian troops go back to their barracks. Our peacekeepers will remain in South Ossetia.

"The only change relates to the fact that Georgian peacekeepers, who were part of the peacekeeping contingent, but turned out to be simply traitors and cowards and started shooting at their colleagues - of course, they are never again going to appear as part of a peacekeeping contingent in South Ossetia."


US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice
"The Russians need to stop their military operations, as they have apparently said that they will, but those military operations really do, now, need to stop because calm needs to be restored."

Fuck 'em, I'm with the Russkies on this one.

Russians aren't cavemen they have computers with internet so this thing with STATE run media has got to stop. You'd be surprised what you can learn just by watching the news online. Besides both CNN and Fox have been already found guilty of being run by our gov. They admitted. I can understand you thinking Russia is stil the bad guy just cause you lived in the Cold War years but in the 21st century Cold War is over and the Soviet Union doesnt exist. I'm with the Russians on this one.

America is the new socialist empire spreading democracy and it's communist puppet agents globally.

@stewartx5 most reporters are just really good readers.. I wouldn't even say reporter, news anchor.

[stewartx5]

I've often wondered what's going through the minds of reporters facing a camera to spout half-truths, misinformation, and worse. Both of these CNN reporters knew full well the Georgian military attacked South Ossetia (defended only by a few peacekeepers & a relatively weak militia), followed by the Russian response. Why then would they say (at 1:57) this was only the Russian "position," suggesting something else might be true? Shame on both of these women.
