While Bush surely misjudged Putin's character, I don't know how the U.S. could have prevented this invasion. It's not like we had no idea it was coming or were gonna talk China into rescheduling the Olympics because of it. The fact of the matter is that Putin holds all the cards here and the rest of the world has to just take it. No one, especially the weak-willed European appeasers, is willing to lose a single soldier in a fight with Russia.
