- It sucks that McCain has become a Bush. Palin has oil ties, McCain''s "energy policy" calls for oil with empty promises of alternative energy. He voted 8 times against alternative energy initiatives! I see Iraq II coming up with all the Cheney/McCain tough talk with Russia.

- Sept. 2, 2008 International Herald Tribune reports:
MOSCOW: Russia and Uzbekistan are to build a new natural gas pipeline across Uzbekistan, strengthening Russia''s bid to establish control over Central Asian gas exports to the West.
Speaking Tuesday in the Uzbek capital Tashkent, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said the pipeline will be built to "serve the growing export potential" of Uzbekistan and neighboring Turkmenistan. He added that the deal will be signed "in the near future.""
Energy-hungry China has also sought a cut of Turkmenistan''s gas wealth, reaching a deal to build a natural gas pipeline that is to come on line in 2009." - Reply to this comment
- Beneath the feel goodness of the republican convention.
A stench that reeks to high heaven.
Over 4000 corpses of Dead Americans killed by the republican war based on 935 LIES.
All the ex-wives of McCain, Giuliani, and Thompson, hiding in the shadows while the trophy wives enjoy the glory.
And a child molester sitting with his victim in the convention, applauded by the christian hypocriticals.
No Surprise.
This is after all the party of Bush/Cheney/Halliburton/Larry Craig/Mark Foley... - Reply to this comment

- The truth is, this is all about control of oil & gas pipelines. The BTC oil pipeline in South Ossetia & the Nabucco natural gas pipeline in NW Georgia supply markets in the European Union. In November 2003 the World Bank funded the BTC pipeline to circumvent Russian pipelines supplying europe.
Shareholders in the BTC pipeline are: British Petroleum, AzBTC, Chevron, Statoil, TPAO, ENI, Total, Itochu, INPEX, ConocoPhillips & Amerada Hess.
Russia is the second largest supplier of oil & gas on the planet.
After loosing Iraqi oil to Operation Iraqi Freedom, they negotiated supplies with Iran. The Russians were not happy with Cheneys BTC pipeline or the Caspian Sea Pipelines project going through Afghanistan. This threatens their economy based on oil & gas.
Again it''s the Bush administrations lust for money in World markets for their BIG OIL buddies - Reply to this comment

Your premise says it all. These actions are neither necessary nor smart. Instead they are provative and stupid. We need Russia''s cooperation in world affairs far more than we need Georgia, which is led by a certified idiot. Cheney/Bush/Rice gave Georgia the green light to terrorize the autonomous regions that are culturally distinct from ethnic Georgians (95% carry Russian passports), and after they spent two days attacking the capital with sniper fire, killing numerous Russian peacekeepers and countless citizens, they began a 24 hour barrage of mortar rounds and rockets, indiscriminately killing anyone near the capital all through the night on August 7 & 8. Cheney wasted our money sending military machinery in there in the first place, which the Russians have now confiscated or destroyed, and he is wasting our money now with another billion of our tax dollars. NATO on Russia''s doorstep? What right does he have to stick a military alliance aimed against Russia on its boundaries? What a sicko neocon stuck in the Cold War. And should Russia decide to get Cuba, Venezuela, and other countries in our sphere to join a military alliance and plant missiles in their country too? - Reply to this comment
- MarineCWO2 You are saying our involvement in genocide and ethnic cleansing in Georgia is justified because we are desperate for oil. The same argument put forward by every criminal in the world. You are knowingly committing crimes in the name of the US for the sake of oil. You are a war criminal.

- Everyone needs to understand that while our actions are sinister in nature, they are necessary for survival. Either we play the political game or we become a 3rd world nation overnight. As long as we are dependant on foreign oil we must play these cat and mouse games with Russia and Iran and N. Korea. Once free from those bonds tehn we can actually make progress with these people. Right now they have the bargaining chips and we have rhetoric. When the field is level you will see a different attitude from these nations.

- Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice announced a $1 billion aid package to help Georgia "survive, rebuild and thrive" after the war with Russia. The package did not include military aid and it was not yet time to look at such assistance, she said....
