this whole Georgia thing is rather important. we must do something. exactly what, i dont know, but we need to stand up to Russia and behind Georgia.

Mikheil Saakashvili, Georgia's president, has written this piece requesting the west's help. damn near begging for it. and we must. Russia is trying to throw its military weight around and absorb former soviet states that have become democratic and West-friendly. The West must stand behind our newly democratic friends.

i think we are all aware that i dont want war anywhere. i also dont want tyranny and oppression anywhere. Georgia is a free and democratic country and Russia is invading its sovereignty. sending Condoleeza Rice is a start and she must stand up and take a hard line with the Russians and demand European support. i dont know what to do, but we must do something. we must not let Moscow overrun the region.

Georgia is begging for our support. we must oblige.
