Gateway Pundit nails Team Obama’s reaction to the Georgia-Russia conflict:
Barack Obama released a meaningless statement yesterday after Russia began a bombing campaign inside Georgia, a staunch US ally…
Nowhere in Obama’s original statement did he exclusively condemn Russia but rather took the citizen of the world approach and left America’s ally Georgia to fend for itself.
But, that was yesterday.
Now Politico is reporting that Barack Obama has released a fresh new statement and has decided to choose sides:
“I condemn Russia’s aggressive actions and reiterate my call for an immediate ceasefire… Russia must stop its bombing campaign, cease flights of Russian aircraft in Georgian airspace, and withdraw its ground forces from Georgia.”
Suddenly, Barack is sounding McCainish.
Surprised?Drew thinks someone must have looked it up and told Obama which side we are on.

Obama repeatedly says something stupid then afterward changes his position closer to McCain’s correct position.
The problem is that if Obama wins the election then he will not be able to copy McCain’s correct positions.

Didn’t he do the same thing in the debates with Hillary?

So what did he say? “Now that Georgia is under attack, peaches will be more expensive.” That was my first reaction since I went to a US government school and they don’t teach geography. Cut Obama some slack.

I shudder to think of Pres. Obama meeting with Putin in a head to head match up of military powers

#3, yeah he canceled his trip to Atlanta, because he figured I-75 would be back logged with tanks.
