Putting It All Together

At AmericaBlog, John Aravosis arrives at the crux of McSame's hard-on for small Eastern European countries with oil.

Earlier this week John McCain declared that all Americans are (former Soviet) Georgians, oddly comparing the "crisis" in Georgia, a country most Americans have never heard of, nor do they need to ever hear of it, to the Soviet occupation of Berlin. Then it hit me. No wonder McCain has devoted the entire week to talking about the Georgian cris. As has already been reported, McCain's top foreign policy adviser took hundreds of thousands of dollars to lobby for Georgia. And now, suddenly, John McCain devotes an entire week of his campaign to championing the cause of a government that paid his top foreign policy aide hundreds of thousands of dollars.

But why should Johnny Mac pretend that there's a conflict of interest? He's sooooooo good at ignoring reality and history already.
