Georgian president to McCain: Move 'from words to deeds'
Source: CNN

(CNN) – Georgian president Mikheil Saakashvili on Wednesday called for John McCain and other American leaders to do more for Georgia in their response to the conflict in his country.

“Yesterday, I heard Sen. McCain say, ‘We are all Georgians now,’” Saakashvili said on CNN’s American Morning. “Well, very nice, you know, very cheering for us to hear that, but OK, it’s time to pass from this. From words to deeds.”

McCain told a crowd in Pennsylvania yesterday that he had called Saakashvili to express solidarity with the people of Georgia, saying: “Today, we are all Georgians.”

Haven't people had enough of the repugs scare tactics. If they are not careful it will be more than political tactics. What another war for oil? We can't fight Russia nor should we. This is outrageous. Don't people get what another repug term would mean!!!

20. McCain is Jack Kennedy?
Pres, Kennedy said, "Ich bin ein Berliner" (or something like that), but that didn't stop the East Germans from building and reinforcing the Berlin Wall. Sen. McCain's claim that "we are all Georgians" appears to be an attempt to echo Pres. Kennedy's words. It will probably be just as ineffective in reaching a satisfactory resolution. Unless he wants (or wants Bush) to move troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan and in to Georgia, not much more than "strong words" will come out of the U.S.
