I remember right after Bush did his air craft carrier landing I and many others were sure that we'd soon be gearing up for a 3rd war. Was that at all possible?

Syria and Libya were suddenly our friends, but not for long. Syria was planned to be next. I could see Bush doing an about-face on Libya if Syria is deemed successful. Bush could possibly go into Cuba to piss off Chavez. I wouldn't rule anything out except Iran and North Korea.
They may have tried heading into Georgia. The Bush administration did consider bombing the Roki tunnel to keep the Russians for sending more troops in, and Bush did send USAF transports to ferry Georgian troops from Iraq to Georgia. Further, most of the Senate and House would have favored such a war (or at least opposed Russia), to say nothing of the foreign policy establishment. However, this would likely have led to WWIII, WWIV, or WWV depending on who you talk to. Further it took place in 2008, which would be long after the invasion of Iraq.
I don't like Bush, but do you honestly believe he'd be willing to go to war with Russia over Georgia of all places.
