As always, you’re right on target.

I wonder if McCain is confusing his Georgias, and thinks winning Georgia is part of the Southern Electoral Strategy that has served Republicans so well for the past few decades?

Wigwam’s comment included seven links to articles about where our ships are and it was #18 at 7:16 AM. I’ve seen nothing of this in the stateside reporting; these are pretty much foreign sources.

I found it particularly odd over the weekend on Sunday on CNN when they had an extended tv interview with a desperate Saakashvili talking with a cell phone up to his head pointing at maps in some bunker office -odd because the audio quality was absolutely ‘pitch perfect’ for all the US viewers to be able to hear. In that moment, the whole scene had an eerie feeling of being staged for US consumption.</p> <p>.</p> Everything about this, except for the miscalculated Russian response into Georgia, has the air of a ‘production’.
