#1 Those Humvees will probably fetch a pretty penny back in Moscow.

#2 Not necessarily. These hummers are a property of US government and I am sure Russian government will get the bill. It is a theft. It is quite likely that when the bill arrives, someone will get shot for it, eventually. OK, maybe not shot... they seem to be fond of tea spiced with heavy metals lately.

#3 Hey Uncle Sam wants those Humvees back...

What the heck am I talking about... I want them back... I helped pay for those... what recourse does the US have in reclaiming these or recouping the value...

#4 The Russians are riding high and feel like rubbing American faces in shit. Does Bush have the balls and brains to make sure the Russians regret starting this adventure?

#5 Can't wait to hear -- again -- how this was all in defense of human rights in Southern Ossetia. Yep. Sure is.
