Probably the responsible thing to do is to stay out of it. Politicizing all this by sending your Sancho Panzas is really irresponsible.</p> With Russian and US armed forces in such close proximity, a very dangerous situation exists.

Under Kennedy we went to the mat to keep Russia out of Cuba although they had every right to be there. We can say we were invited to Georgia, but Russia would be equally intent on keeping us out. This is a serious game of chicken. Unfortunately we started it, and our president is foolish enough to not swerve.</p> Supposedly we are sending warships to Georgian ports with humanitarian supplies.

But, with all respect to Jane, I guess I’m not convinced that McCain’s presidential pantomimes over Georgia resonate in economically hard hit states like Ohio and Michigan.<br /> With the Detroit Three sucking wind, DHL possibly leaving Ohio, energy prices still in the stratosphere, etc., I think folks in those states still are worried more about their pocketbooks than about the Russia-Georgia situation. Or maybe I’m just in denial. ;-)</p> I agree that Obama ought to be speaking up more.
