Huge difference in that and this situation. Georgia was invaded at the very end of the Bush Presidency and when his approval ratings were in the toilet. Furthermore, he had a solid Congress in the other party's hand that would never have backed him up even if he wanted to support Georgia at the time.

Putin planned that invasion time wise perfectly.

Nothing, of course. Just like we did nothing to stop the Russians in Georgia.

An episode all the Obama haters have conveniently flushed down the memory hole in their critique of "weak" leaders.

don't we have most of the military options in place or close by? POTUS is talking to allies Chamberlain. probably talking about sanctions.

at the end of the day, we have no interest in Ukraine Czechoslovakia , just like we didn't in Georgia Austria.

So Bush should have handled things regarding Georgia differently then? Too bad for him he had such an ineffectual congress working against him.

Bush also had his hands tied because Georgia was the aggressor in that situation and Russia retaliated. Georgia was dumb enough to think that if they poked Russia that we would defend them.

Potentially. What do you think the answer would have been had Bush gone to Congress to ask for their support to deploy American forces into Georgia?
