It was the most funny Russian I've ever seen. If you aren't aware of it I have to explain that there exist some languages in the world but English! And in them there used things called cases (падежи). They allow write words in order you wish, and sense will never be lost. For ex, "атаковать Грузию" - to attack Georgia. The translation showed it well. Don't forget of cases, dear Quahom1. Ok?

And speaking of the sense of that, I can't agree. "Russia it did not prepare and made nothing thus far people they died" - "Russia didn't prepare [things to do] and did nothing when people [in Georgia] to be dying" - Who told you Russia did nothing? Firstly, it wasn't allowed by UN. Government was to wait first days. Just to wait their Resolutions! I don't know what they've said on American TV, and don't want to. Yes, Russia had to do nothing at the very beginning.

This phare makes me just angry!!! I'll tell you who's! Neither Bush, nor Saakashvili are. Bush has just destroyed USA economy with his war-games. In Georgia, there was used USA and Ukrainian armour, tanks and helicopters. And how after that you can say that:

Has it been Russia to declare a war? Putin wasn't at the same time the president of Georgia. He couldn't "avoid attacks". Who attacked!? Saakashvili. How Putin from Moscow had to stop that? What would you do if you were a Russian President?

"instead of to discuss with the country and find a way out" - Saakashvili wasn't going to discuss. He just does, never talk. He's just crazy: even the Georgians say so.

And I think Obama won't have done such things as Iraq et cetera! I'm not sure one black president would do more foolish things "in this country with such a history of racism and white supremacy" as Mr Bush has done.

Which one are you going to, they are typically all over town and the new prez makes a short appearance at many of them, but not all.

I often participate in the parade from the capital to the white house. Someone has to make sure the old tenant gives up the keys, and leaves it clean so they can get their deposit back and then there is the whole lease agreement thing...

When Clinton's staff left they extended the pranks to gluing cabinets shut, making off with some presidential momentos including most of the W's on the keyboards...leaving some viruses on the computers...we'll have to see what tricks Bush's staff have up their sleeves...

The most interesting thing about the parade is watching the military cordon roll up and down the street...that and them hauling me off the street everytime they roll out...(I'm in full clown, and brought in to entertain during the long waits...I usually sleep through the speeches (it's the only respectful way for a clown to behave when something important is going on))

Which one in DC? There will be many, dozens around town. And if he is gonna be there, you'll be having a ticket, an invitation, unless that is he's gonna do it in Obama style and rent out the Redskins stadium for an event.

oh and expect hundreds a ticket...it ain't cheap...and black tie on those wings...

Re: Black President In The Usa? Are We Ready?

They are talking about 3 million people being in town for the parade and innaguration....that would break all records ever in DC...a veritable sea of people and gridlock on surface streets and the subway system...

This will tax our security system beyond comprehension and once you get in will take hours to get out.

I'll bet the city shuts down 90% of the businesses and it will still be a phenomenal mess.

I am torn, to participate or stay away...

Yes, I hear its going to be a blow out...I wanted to go to the parade and to his swearing in..Never been to one of these before. I live in metro area though, so it should not be too hard to get a ticket...The Red Skins stadium is in MD if im not mistaken...I dont think he would do that...The Mall is going to be filled though...should be packed from the capital building to the lincoln memorial and all the way over to union station...I should buy some t-shirts and sell them on the Mall...

He is only a human, (I hope ) , he can only be in so many places in a 24 hour period....He may have a rep go out and speak for him at some of the events...Thats what I would do...Then again I'm not "B"...We will just have to wait and see...
