America has a Representative government. If the people choose to elect representatives that decide to spend money on Georgia, then it is our business. WE are also a capitalist economy, which means we can afford butter AND guns. Russia isn’t and can’t;

“New World Order crowd that is using Georgia as another pawn to soften Russia up for their eventual hostile takeover by our Chinese friends (more troops on NATO border means less in the Far East)…seriously, get a grip.”
I’ll get a grip if you promise to release the one you have on that pipe.
China is as much of a paper Dragon as Russia is a cardboard Bear. Neither one could fight their way out of a paper bag.
Russia uses conscripts and obsolete Soviet equipment from the late cold war period. Chinese uses conscripts and cheap copies of that obsolete Soviet Equipment. China could no more take over Russia then Canada could take over the USA.

“And yes, by treaty, and by the United Nations own resolutions, Kosovo always remained an integral part of Serbia, and previously, the Republic of Yugoslavia.”
This is a bald faced lie. There was NO nation called Serbia after WW2. Since there was no Nation called Serbia When the UN was created, it could not be a member of the United Nations. Period.
Serbia, along with Kosovo, was PART of Yugoslavia. Kosovo hasn’t been part of Serbia since the last time Serbia existed as a state, which was about 6 or 7 centuries ago.
What the UN ( United Nations) did was recognize that Yugoslavia was now several independent nations, One of which was Serbia, and one of which was Kosovo. The Serbs just got their nose out of joint because they tried to grab most of Yugoslavia for themselves when it broke up and NATO and the UN wouldn’t let them.
What’s important here is that Kosovo is NOT analogous with S. Osseteria, Since the UN has recognized Kosovo as a sovereign nation, while S. Ossetia will NEVER be seen as anything except a Russian pawn.
So, Mr. Fudd, should I explain this version of the Bush Doctrine tp you and why protecting fledgling democracies from corrupt Tyrants like Pootie is more important then GM, Ford or Chrysler?
