Three words. About damned time. I mean come on, the Russians are already laughing at us for getting bogged down in Afghanistan. Lets give them one more. I mean, we did win the Cold War and retook Eastern Europe. We can afford to be gracious in victory and let them giggle a bit. Its for a good cause after all.
