The fact that Palin's completely sold to Insane McCain's "Endless War" strategy is the prime reason why The Barracuda won't be getting my vote.
Palin takes tough line on Russia

Sarah Palin, the running mate of Republican presidential candidate John McCain, on Thursday said the US would be obligated to go to war with Russia if it invaded a Nato ally a status she advocated for Georgia, which Russia invaded last month.
One excellent reason NOT to vote for The Barracuda. Perhaps she's too ignorant of foreign policy issues to know that only a few months ago, PRESIDENT George W. Bush tried to force NATO to grant membership for Georgia. But what happened? Oh! There are OTHER members of NATO. And they said, "No fucking way." And then Georgia proved just how good a NATO member its army would be by first attacking Russian forces and then running away like little bitches instead of defending itself. Oh yes. NATO could really use a member like that! But I guess Vice President The Barracuda can succeed where the President failed.
Ms Palin, the self-styled hockey mom whose selection was criticised by Democrats and some Republicans as rash given her foreign policy inexperience, was giving her first full media interview since Mr McCain chose her last month.
Yes. MRS. Palin's lack of experience means she'd simply adopt Insane McCain's policy without blinking (or thinking).
Her response, while technically accurate, is likely to reinforce the debate about whether the Alaska governor should be a heartbeat away from the presidency.
Being "a heartbeat away" is probably the best part of her candidacy, considering how awful Insane McCain would be.
I mean, that is the agreement when you are a Nato ally, is if another country is attacked, youre going to be expected to be called upon and help, she told ABCs Charlie Gibson.
Stupid obligations and knee-jerk ractions is what made World War I such a mindless slaughter and World War II's brutal savagery inevitable. I guess The Barracuda has got no problem repeating history for a good ole World War III.
We have got to keep an eye on Russia. For Russia to have exerted such pressure in terms of invading a smaller democratic country, unprovoked, is unacceptable.
See, this is why I call her grandfather Insane McCain. Georgia is not a democracy and Russia was actually provoked. Something like, I dunno, breaking a Russian-guaranteed cease-fire, a night-long rocket attack on an undefended city, during which time 120 Russian peacekeepers were killed, followed by a human wave of refugees into Russia? Does The Barracuda even know what the fuck a provocation is?
I suppose we have to suspend disbelief. I remember when Joe Liebermann was running alongside Algore in 2000. Man oh man, the policy reversals and philosophical u-turns ole Joe had to pull off in order to carry Algore's water!! It was truly depressing to witness Joe sell himself like a prostitute in order to be VP.
So, I guess becoming a mindless slave of Insane McCain's war-profiteer camarilla is just part of the job decription.
Jurched
Indeed!
