The fact is that Putin is dangerous and there is nothing that GW or anybody else can do to change this or change the fact that the Russians have been pissed off for a long time and want to regain their position of power? We didnt put him in place, Russia isnt some third world country that others can control. They are a nuclear power with a lot of money, natural resources, bombs, soldiers and ties with bad guys that want to hurt us. Hell we may wind up allies with China before this whole thing is over. That is not exactly a regime without blood on their hnds.
