At the risk of getting yelled at cause someone thinks I have erroneously pinged them..I am sending this crucial AND SO PROFESSIONALLY DESIGNED!...information forward...Ha.
To those receiving this..this is not a ping list into perpetuity I have created.
I'll spare you a neurotic dressing down for sharing a common interest with me. This time! ;^)
You are tooo kind! In the fight for freedom..I take such huge risks!
Question: which is worse torture?
Wearing panties on head or getting flamed by a Freeper?
I am in such a better mood after seeing McCain last night.
I also suggest that your friends in Georgia look into the Swiss national sport; rifle shooting.
Georgia should declare that every able bodied person from 18 to 65 is a member of the unorganized Militia and arm them with Government rifles. Once this incident is passed, shooting contests should be organized in every region of the Country, with Government medals being offered as prizes.
High quality hunting (sniper) rifles should also be offered as prizes.
Do as the Swiss do, and on weekends have these Militia members practice blowing up bridges, setting sniper hides and machine gun nests.
Pre-set fields of fire in likely avenues of approach so as to make any invader pay in blood for every single inch of Georgian territory.
Require as a matter of Georgian law that every home possess a military rifle and a thousand rounds of ammunition. Encourage the shooting sports among Georgian youth.
Make Georgia a nation of riflemen and riflewomen.
Pass a law that any Georgian politician who announces any type of surrender is a de facto Traitor with an automatic death sentence which can be carried out by any Georgian citizen who can find him or her.
Tell Georgians in advance that any announcement of surrender in any media is to be ignored and anyone propogating such is to be declared an automatic Traitor with the same sentence as above.
The Swiss have adopted this model of National defense and no one has dared invade them in over a hundred years. They can then say with confidence to the Russians: "Go ahead. Send a million men across our borders. We'll all shoot twice and then go home."

Thanks for the ping!
I appreciate the ping! Keep me on a list or non-list, whichever the case may be, haha.
That was a good show, at last.
Here's something else to pick up our spirits: Kobe Bryant on patriotism -- it's "cool" -- quite a contrast to Obama, or the many apologists for the Russian bear.
One of the US swimmers on Phelps' relay team that nailed his 8th Gold Medal said he had to do well -- because Kobe was in the audience, and he couldn't let him down (and the swimmer was not of the same skin tone as Kobe, just a basketball fan).
ROFLAMO!!!!
vERY INTERESTING.
Western Europe, of course, is mostly going to sit on its ass due to its dependency on Soviet —er, Russian natural gas. If they do anything major to help Georgia, it could be a long, cold winter for them.
This is something that Taiwan should do, as well, to prepare to defend against Red China. But instead, they have the death penalty for gun possession. Go figure.
Incidentally, we should make our military aid to Taiwan dependent on their implementation of such a plan.
It's like they were issuing a Double-Dog Dare Ya to the West.
I believe the EU will send in peacekeeprs while the particulars of the two provinces ar negotiated.
I believe that NATO will (along with the US as a part of it) beef up Georgian and Ukraining military equipment, training, and operations and that bases in each country are probably going to happen.
We shall see.
Thank you Jeff this is a good idea.
WOW! OUTSTANDING!
Following the public statements of representatives of countries is a glimpse into the importance of words, definitions and diplomacy. The marketplace of ideas from minds representing millions.
Fascinating.
Fabulous work, Jeff Head.
Thanks
