Tweedledum & Tweedledee

Vladimir Putin - emulating his soulmate George W. Bush:
"I looked the man in the eye. I was able to get a sense of his soul"

- By attacking a country whose president he dislikes. This of course was bound to upset Putin's ("a straightforward and trustworthy man") soulmate George W. Bush, who said, referring to the invasion (of Georgia): "...violence in Georgia is unacceptable" - (G. W. Bush August 12, 2008). This pronouncement would probably have more impact if it came from somebody less prone to attack "sovereign nations" (e.g. Afghansitan, Iraq) himself.
"I was very firm with Vladimir Putin", Said President Bush, speaking from Beijing China where he's watching various sporting events at the 2008 Olympics along with special guest George Herbert Walker Bush, who would be the current president's father except that he answers to A Higher Father.
GHW Bush (AKA Bush-41) avers that it's pretty smart of the president to have "pleasant relationships with people and that they trust him. I think he's developing that with [French President Nicolas] Sarkozy. I know it's there with Putin."
