Perle: "Bush and his expert Condi Rice have misunderstood Putin from the beginning"

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/presidentbush/2008/08/perle-georgia.html

<snip>

Countdown to Crawford asked for his thoughts on the current situation in Georgia.

In response, Perle equated Bush's position at the moment with that of Jimmy Carter facing another Kremlin military move -- and suggested that Bush and his secretary of state, like Carter, had put too much faith in the Kremlin.

He wrote:

Now President Bush will understand the Hapless Jimmy Carter when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan at Christmas, 1979 and the scales (remember the 'inordinate fear of communism?') fell from his eyes. Bush and his expert Condi Rice have misunderstood Putin from the beginning and built an American policy towards Russia on a ludicrous look into Putin's soul.

Richard Perle should have been executed for treason long ago.

I would suspect perle of disinforming stupid little boots to set him up for this.

What a sucker. "Fool me once, shame on, uh, shame on you. Fool me again, uh, we start World War Three?"
