Bush's freedom push ignores homeland

(U-WIRE) -In a recent visit to Russia and Eastern Europe, George Bush used the diplomatic mission to continue following through on his vision of spreading freedom and democracy throughout the world. During his meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Bush lectured Putin on the values of democracy, saying, Strong countries are built by building strong democracies. Bush made these comments in response to Putin's drastic anti-democratic reforms after a recent terrorist attack at a school. After visiting Russia, Bush paid a visit to Georgia to praise the Georgian government for its recent revolution that resulted in the ouster of its former authoritarian rule. He then criticized Russia's refusal to abandon two military bases in Georgia and encouraged Russia to accept newly forming democracies in the region.

'Rocky,' Punch Out' suffice as training for motor-challenged

I struggle with all things motor-coordinated. Being uncoordinated is like being a really bad driver of your own body. You tend to break things, especially yourself. And you are really bad at sports.
