“Warrior prince”? Regardless of one’s position on the war, American “just cause” vs. “imperialism”, Coke vs. Pepsi or any other issue, to liken GWB to any iconic representation of strength, courage and nobility to such an exaggerated degree is a rhetorical offense of such scope that even Aristotle would punch you in the face. ---

Well Red white and blue are the Colors of the russian Flag. They are not commies anymore 😉 Plus. my last visit to russia I did notice two strange facts on this issue. The teens there wanted to drink Coca Cola because it was hip to drink “American” soda Pepsi had been around quite a while there so it was not “new” or “american enough” Something to do with _grr brain lock_ what’s his face visited disney land and Coca Cola Cans in russia are/were written in english (excluding ingedent listings) WHile Pepsi had only one side in English. the other was in Russian. Not to mention Lot more Russians in New York than in Georgia. Pepsi has a website in russian [www.pepsi.ru](http://www.pepsi.ru) granted I have an addiction to Pepsi Blue and Cinniman Altoids… Yet, I am still very pissed at Pepsi for canceling Josta and replaced it with Pepsi one. Bastards pissed me off almost as much as FOX cancelling Firefly ---
