Those guys on the Eastern Europe bureau don't want to be outdone by the guys over in charge of Mid-East affairs. Really and truly, anyone else would be better than the yahoos we're stuck with for another 1 1/2 years.

I thought he would have called him Vlad, since when is Bush so formal? You've got to figure he has a name he uses for Putin just around the White House, like "Ol' Poot," or "Bad Vlad."
