...more useful than the predominantly theoretical knowledge Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice relies on. It is unfortunate that President George W. Bush's actions in Iraq played into the Russians' hands. How can we criticize their aggression and belligerence when the U.S. under Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney acted similarly with respect to Iraq? I hope that Barack Obama and John McCain follow Brzezinski's advice and that NATO and the rest of the international community can persuade Russia to leave Georgian territory or make the political and economic consequences as painful as possible.

...media; on Saturday night, when I visited their convergence center, I was met with vehement condemnation. One arrested demonstrator, while waiting to be detained with zipties around his hands, said he did not trust TIME. But on Monday night, with the streets littered with shattered glass and abandoned Dick Cheney masks, Adam, a 19-year-old from Winona, Minn. (like many of his peers, he refused to give his full name), talked about the police raid. He said that after the intense search on Friday he and others conversed with police candidly, trying to be as friendly as possible...

Delegates here might call that bad news, because most of them still like Bush and Cheney, but elsewhere in America, the public tends to disagree. With Gustav looming, the GOP scrubbed the first day of their convention, leaving only the most basic items of business required in the by-laws. Like magic, Bush-Cheney vanished from the convention without controversy...

...specter of the potentially devastating storm caused President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney to decide to skip the Republican National Convention, which was supposed to begin Monday in St. Paul, Minn. The White House announced that Bush was heading to Texas Monday to monitor emergency response efforts, and Republican officials have already postponed most of Monday's convention activities. Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff headed to the region Sunday and planned to stay for the duration of the storm...

...with sharks and his fear of rattlesnakes, the pests that surround his California home and once bit his dog. No single quote has upset him more over the years than the claim that he shouted "Kill! Kill! Kill!" as he worked in the war room of the 2004 Bush-Cheney campaign. An absolute falsehood, he maintains, along with the claim that he sometimes gets nosebleeds when he gets angry, like stigmata of his temper. The nosebleeds, he says, just happen sometimes, as they would for anybody else. When McCain calls him "Sergeant Schmidt," the candidate is making a joke...
