G. W. Bushski and Surely Maccaine on Georgia

Prezident Georgi W. Bushski and prezidential hopeful, the hapless Surely Maccaine, met this morning in South Carolina to ponder why Russia had invaded Georgia.

Bushski thought it was terrible and warned Russia, using very strong terminology, saying "We'll give you Atlanta, just leave the rest and go home. It's worthless anyway and there's no water."

Maccaine, just back from a spirited late-night flight with a gorgeous blonde lobbyist, who he insisted is not a mistress, but rather just someone who works for someone for whom he does favors in return for money to get him re-elected. He's not like that bad Jonathan Edwards, who's always acting so preachy!

Oops, got carried away there. Maccaine said to Russia, "Take Savannah!" Then he announced he was going home for a nap. Before he left, though, he warned the Russian bear that if he ever becomes prezident like his friend Georgi, he would punish Russia by moving Moscow to Florida.


Actually, George W. Bush, confiming once more that he is a moronic fool, got himself and the rest of us involved in the Georgian squabble by preaching to Putin that the former KGB (with a good heart, who believes in God) spy should not do reprehensible things like invade a sovereign country.

And all the people of the world guffawed and sneered at this latest display of monumental hypocrisy and chutzpah.

McCain, the wannabe "tough" old fart, scraped off his warts and actually said if he was the prez he would "punish and isolate" bad old Russia, and then pandered to the old right wingers, who hate everything good and decent, by casting Obama as an inexperienced bumbler.

Randy Scheunemann, one of McCain's "top" foreign policy advisors, said that Obama was not ready to lead the U.S. in a time of war, claiming that Obama's "first statement [about Russia invading Georgia] was very weak and did not distinguish between the aggressor and the victim."

(Actually, McCain thinks it's the Sunnis that are the victims and the Shiites are the aggessors. But he thought the discussion was about futbol.)

What's most interesting is that McCain's fondness for lobbyists once again sees the light of day. Scheunemann was a lobbyist for the Georgian government until last year!!!!


But why would Russia's interest in Georgia become a major point of "honor" for the leadership of the Republican Party in the United States? What do we care about Georgia? The Bushites/McCainers don't give a rat's ass about the "sovereignty" of another nation -- that's been proven in spades! They also don't care about democracy - another fact that's clear to all.

So, why care about Georgia?

It's all about oil! On August 8, Georgia invaded South Ossetia with the assistance of Israeli military advisers. Russia responded with force to drive out the Georgia troops.

The question behind Georgia's invasion and Russia's response is: "Who will control the pipelines carrying oil and gas out of the Caspian region?"

The Russians will not stand by and allow Georgia, along with Western oil companies (including Israeli firms - which explains the Israeli military advisers), to succeed with their plan to route the oil from Azerbaijan and the gas lines from Turkmenistan, which transit Georgia through Turkey instead of hooking up to Russian pipelines.

The U.S. government is in the hands of the oil business. The oil business wants to keep Russia from touching oil from the Caspian region.

Will McCain, like Bush, lead us into another huge military blunder to serve the oil interests?
