...When asked by Gibson if under the NATO treaty, the U.S. would have to go to war if Russia again invaded Georgia, 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. ....
I think she knows that Nato is not currently a member of NATO; however, Georgia is requesting inclusion. I think she answered fine...'Perhaps so.' Sarah, not only put war on the table, she put it in the center and polished it!
Will Sarah be the death of Political Correctness? I hope so.

She made no mistake, she advocated NATO membership, then was asked if we’d have to fight Russia if it invaded a member like Georgia and she correctly referred to the Treaty’s defense and help requirements, she did not say all out war with Russia would be required. Frankly, a response to what just happened to Georgia would be very similar to what we did this time, except Russia probably would not take the chance in the first place.
