President McCain Sends Secretary of State Lieberman and Defense Secretary Graham to Tbilisi

----From a POW---

McCain's military record has little to do with his qualifications, but everything to do with his love of country. Many who never wore the uniform are loyal citizens, but most of those who served in combat zones have a special affinity for their place of birth. Neither candidate inspires great confidence, and you may disagree, but in my opinion, McCain's mother hit the nail on the head when she suggested we had to "hold our nose and vote for John".

Can you imagine what would've been said if Obama sent Chuck Hagal and Jack Reed to Georgia?

We would never hear the end of it.

John McCain is as arrogant as they come.

So Mo McCain is going to send his surrogates, Larry and Curly Joe to Georgia. Are they going to end up in Atlanta?

It's about time we had some competent people over there.

McCain called for the UN Security Council to meet on the issue AFTER Russia had already gotten an emergency meeting called. He's flying blind here. The stupidity is so thick that it hurts. This guy is even more embarassing than Bush.

I think it's absolutely unseemly that a CANDIDATE for President is attempting to influence, confuse, or what have you, United States foreign policy.

Someone needs to remind McCain that we have ONE President at a time. The fact that's he's auditioning for President doesn't qualify.

The press vilified Obama for his silly seal, his Berlin speech, and his so-called self confidence, yet (until this morning's Washington Post) has been largely silent about McCain's presumptuousness.

Barack Obama's statement on the Georgian disaster was inline with President Bush's response, as well as other world leaders, and then John McCain makes a uniquely bellicose statement. Later going so far as "speaking for American's" and saying "we are all Georgian's now".

The double standard is glaring. It seems that when the media narrative has been that Obama is "presumptuous", and another candidate truly is presumptuous, it's difficult to derail the prevailing story line.

Finally, the straw that is breaking the camel's back, McCain decides to send his two surrogates to Georgia-- to do what exactly? Bush, the REAL President, has dispatched the Secretary of State. Is McCain creating some shadow government to subvert our Commander in Chief? What the hell's going on?

We are all Georgians today?
I'm a Tennessean today. Was one yesterday too. Expect to be one tomorrow.

Mccain has shown is foreign policy credentials with the crisis in Georgia. Obama said "let the UN handle it," apparently, without knowing that Russia has veto power within the UN. Now, Obama has adopted McCain's position on the conflict. How many times has Obama shifted his policy to that of his opponents (both Hillary and McCain)? Obama is frighteningly unprepared. And, sending press releases from your vacation in Hawaii makes me think of Bush on his ranch in TX during the Iraq conflict. Can someone please tell the American people that Obama is a MEDIA FABRICATION, not a real candidate? Real candidates have held full-time jobs, devoted themselves to thier country or devoted themselves in some way for more than a handful of years.

McCain is scary...with post POW sindrome.
Obama is strong but measured. Agree with Bush or not, we only have one president at a time. McCain is clearly too involved with lobbyists ties to Georgia and his destructive interfering ego

I think we are all RUSSIANS today. Georgia was the one who started this latest crisis. McSame is on the wrong side. We should be supporting Russia. Russia is our ally, not the current president of Georgia who's lobbist is McSame's foreign policy advisor.

McLame's qulified to command the USO. His strength is clearly telling jokes.

At least someone is acting presidential.

Perhaps Obama will "sit down" with the Russians (then the Iranians, then the Pakistanis) and "talk" to them to get them to stop. What has he said of substance about this?

The only thing that will stop the Russians from overthrowing the Georgian government is US military protection of the Georgian capital. We should not just sit on our hands and let 40 years of cold war diplomacy, sweat, and effort fall down the tubes.

John McCain is a uppity Anglo, he's an elietist 'Georgian'. He is so smug the way he looks down on hard working Americans. He should learn his place and stop 'playing' president. This isn't one of your movie roles John and frankly Putin is licking his chops at the thought of a conflict with an allready over extended US military.

I think it is very sad that John McCain cannot get passed the fact that he definately has memory issues. He truly shows this by concentrating on Georgia rather than his campaign. We need th stay out of this Russian affair and let them settle this on their own. By supporting Georgia we are only making matters worse. McCain is errogant and presumptuous about his chances of winning.

I must have fallen into a protracted sleep because when I evidently awakened, we must have elected John McCain President of the United States! Then I realized it was just a nightmare and McCain's arrogance was simply in play and he was outside of his zone as simply a US Senator.

McBush is openly misusing the young and poor Georgian president to get elected by promoting fear and war as usual. America wake-up, your destiny is being stolen from you by McSame-Joe-Graham, and Corsi-Mary Mattlin

it was the Georgian President who first provoked Russia! You go McCain. Be as ignorant and self serving as McBush league. We'll get into another war yet. Just you wait!

Here we have a felony violation of the Logan Act. Too bad nobody ever gets prosecuted for this. There should be an investigation into whether Saakashvili acted upon representations made by Mr. McCain when he launched this suicide attack last Thursday.
