Al,
Neither georgia nor ukraine are part of NATO, nor should they be. That's exactly the kind of frightful prospect the republicans represent...
You seem to be unaware of the fact that Dems have the same position on Georgia and Ukraine NATO membership.
Let's go and setup a conflict with Russia over regions of the world where their people are a majority.
The potential of some conflict was set up by breakup of Soviet Union. But that does not mean that the West needs to sacrifice freedom loving, pro-western, democratic countries that rose up from the ashes of Soviet Union.
The goal is to allow those countries join the democratic West and avoid conflict at the same time. You must have missed this part of Palin answer:
We will not repeat a Cold War. We must have good relationship with our allies, pressuring, also, helping us to remind Russia that it's in their benefit, also, a mutually beneficial relationship for us all to be getting along.
We cannot repeat the Cold War. We are thankful that, under Reagan, we won the Cold War, without a shot fired, also. We've learned lessons from that in our relationship with Russia, previously the Soviet Union.
We will not repeat a Cold War. We must have good relationship with our allies, pressuring, also, helping us to remind Russia that it's in their benefit, also, a mutually beneficial relationship for us all to be getting along.
