Great lets point to a conservative talking point writer from the notoriously right wing Sun times. The Sun times is Chicagos New York Post, its for people who care more about misinformed right wing crap. Anyone with any real acumen reads the Chicago Tribune or at least the Herald.
Reading a few of his other stories its like listening to McCain press releases. All this crap about Sarah Palin cleaning up her state...yah by taking tens of thousands of dollars in travel per diem to stay home or using her office to push personal vendettas against people like her ex brother in law the trooper? Squeeky Clean, Bush administration style.
So what are you saying Squrriel? You agree with Palin? We should go all in with Georgia even if it means war with Russia as a result? (see later in the interview, she says JUST that).
You do know that Georgia started it right? When they attacked South Ossetia they first off knew that Russia had a huge interest in it. Most of South Ossetian citizens hold Russian passports and Georgia attacked them as a "separatist enclave" to draw Russia into a war. They set a trap for Russia, Russia attacked, and then they said "Russia is so aggressive! We did nothing!" It's like kicking the schoolyard bully in the balls then pretending that he attacked you unprovoked.
Russia should not have attacked Georgia, nevertheless they were provoked. Blame rests with both sides and going to war with Russia when Georgia was the initial aggressor is a very bad idea. Obama had it right in saying it was a diplomatic problem between the two sides and both needed to work it out, it was not like Iraq and Kuwait or other examples of clear unprovoked aggression by one side against the other.
Please watch the following youtube clip. It includes proof that McCain is rather bad off the cuff and heavily dependent on the TelePrompTer (part of why he comes off so wooden when speaking). After that there is a CNN explanation of the South Ossetia situation.
