Title: Irony of a sort
Post by: tekla on August 11, 2008, 11:00:26 PM
The Russians - in a stunning piece of irony - have twice bombed the Su-25 Frogfoot manufacturing plant on the outskirts of the Georgian capital of Tbilisi.

The irony, they used the Su-25 'frogfoot' to do it. 

tekla sez, everything contains the seeds of its own destruction.

Or, whatever comes up, comes down.

But to be being bombed by the bombers you made, that's classic.

But as Tom Clancy said, pretty wisely for him at any rate, that "The seeds of defeat are usually found in the seeds of desire."

Even better irony, here is what Bush said today:

Russia has invaded a sovereign neighboring state and threatens a democratic government elected by its people. Such an action is unacceptable in the 21st century.

He cracks me up, my favorite comedy guy for sure.

Oh, come on!  We all know that Iraq and Afghanistan don't border on the USA, so that's a completely different scenario.  Maximum Leader is only angry because Putin's ignoring the time-honored proverb "Don't ->-bleeped-<- where you eat."  Once Putin learns to ->-bleeped-<- where impoverished, defenseless civilians terrorists eat, everything will be OK.
