I think she whiffed on the Georgia question. Georgia in fact isn’t a NATO member so there would be no NATO-driven obligation for the US to respond.
Does anyone know when this will be aired?
SARAH PALIN ADVOCATES WAR WITH RUSSIA.
Just see how long it takes for that talking point to hit the airwaves. No later than 7 PM Eastern Time, you can bet.

DU`ers are already all over this. They`re claiming she wants to declare nuclear war on Russia.
bttt
They are “in-process”.
You missed this part “Palin advocated the accession of Georgia and Ukraine into NATO, meaning that if attacked again in the future, the United States would be bound to go to war. “
Oh dear!
No, she didn’t. It states that she pushes for the accession of Georgia and Ukraine into NATO and responded to Gibson’s question in regards to what would happen if Russia pulled this with that.
They pulled this same BS on Reagan 28 year ago, yelling that if he gets elected there will be nuclear war. They were wrong then and they are wrong now.
The article says she advocates the accession of Georgia into NATO. Then there is an obligation to respond.
So she’s aware that it isn’t the case yet.
Semper Fi,
“No, she didn’t. It states that she pushes for the accession of Georgia and Ukraine into NATO and responded to Gibson’s question in regards to what would happen if Russia pulled this with that.”
In context that makes some sense. I’ll just have to watch the whole thing for a clearer picture.
That cannot be repeated often enough:
When asked by Gibson if under the NATO treaty, the U.S. would have to go to war if Russia again invaded Georgia, Govenor Palin responded: "Perhaps so. I mean, that is the agreement when you are a NATO ally, is if another country is attacked, you're going to be expected to be called upon and help.
"And we've 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," she told ABC News' Charles Gibson in an exclusive interview.
Be on the alert for statements comparing her to Barry Goldwater.
Uh, Russia is the warmonger.
Can you picture Obama or Biden speaking this clearly, and laying the gauntlet down to Russia? Never happen.
I didn’t think that it was possible to love this woman more—but Sarah has a way of surprising me.
She sounds like a female version of John Bolton.
And that’s a great thing.
Is this a wish....or the truth? ;-)
