Wolf Like America

Relations between the US and Russia sank to the lowest point in a decade yesterday when Vladimir Putin harshly rebuked Washington for its criticism last week and compared the US to a hungry wolf that "eats and listens to no one".
Mr Putin, stung by an attack from Dick Cheney, the US vice-president, used his annual state of the nation address to denounce US expansionism and military spending. He also questioned Washington's record on democratic rights. Although he refrained from mentioning the US by name, it was clear that the "wolf" in question referred to Washington.

1. Interesting and apt metaphor, isn't it? It's really telling and sad that
our foreign relations have gone to pot with these dunceheads.

3. These neocons think we're invincible
They are endangering our country - there has to be a law against destroying our country.
