Marching Thru' Georgia

The extramarital sex must be getting to the old guy:

In recent days, Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) rhetoric toward Russia has mostly been overblown bluster, including an accusation that the country wanted to restore its old empire. However, since a cease-fire was announced and his predictions were proven wrong, McCain has backtracked, saying there won’t be a Cold War. To justify his new position, he told reporters in a press conference today:

In the 21st century, nations don’t invade other nations.

He must not be able to remember anything that happened before May 2003. And how about this for straight talkin':

Today, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) begins his Wall Street Journal op-ed titled “We Are All Georgians” with a warning about the seriousness of the recent conflict between Georgia and Russia:

For anyone who thought that stark international aggression was a thing of the past, the last week must have come as a startling wake-up call.

Perhaps McCain is giving himself a wake-up call, since just yesterday he seemed to have thought that “stark international aggression was a thing of the past.” In a press conference with reporters, he said, “In the 21st century, nations don’t invade other nations.”

Video after the jump.

This is fucking embarrassing. Can't CNN or MSNBC put together a couple clips and force this guy off the stage?

I think it pissed the neo-cons off that they didn't think of picking a fight with either Canada or Mexico...I mean, come ON! PNAC had to go 6,000 miles away to practice wanton hegemony! Russia just camped out in its front yard!
