At some point, regional alliances like NATO should be merged into a global freedom/democracy alliance that combats dictatorships and terrorism.

Making the case for Iraq now. Crowd likes it. Are you listening Saddam? Hmmm? Everyone hates you Saddam. Do it, brother. You won't feel a thing when that bullet rips through your brain.

That's OK for the political cover, but the bottom line is the we *are* NATO -- or at least 85-90% of the military power.

The comments vis a vis Russia are very shrewd. Bush is reminding the crowd that this is much bigger than just one country, although they have an important part to pay. This is courageous. I don't imagine there's a huge resevoir of good will between the two nations and he could have avoided this. Good for Bush. This is what we call leadership.
