| McCain was Using Georgian aggresson on S Ossetia against Obama.Sun, 30 Nov 2008 13:33:57 -0800 by ProtectSouthOssetia08-08-15 McCain was Using Georgian aggresson on S oSsetia against Obama during elections.John McCain's chief foreign policy adviser and his business partner lobbied the senator or his staff on 49 occasions in a 3 1/2-year span while being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by the government of the former Soviet republic of Georgia.The payments raise ethical questions about the intersection of Randy Scheunemann's personal financial interests and his advice to the Republican presidential candidate who is seizing on Russian aggression in Georgia as a campaign issue.McCain warned Russian leaders Tuesday that their assault in Georgia risks "the benefits they enjoy from being part of the civilized world."On April 17, a month and a half after Scheunemann stopped working for Georgia, his partner signed a $200,000 agreement with the Georgian government. The deal added to an arrangement that brought in more than $800,000 to the two-man firm from 2004 to mid-2007. For the duration of the campaign, Scheunemann is taking a leave of absence from the firm."Scheunemann's work as a lobbyist poses valid questions about McCain's judgment in choosing someone who ? and whose firm ? are paid to promote the interests of other nations," said New York University law professor Stephen Gillers. "So one must ask whether McCain is getting disinterested advice, at least when the issues concern those nations.""If McCain wants advice from someone whose private interests as a once and future lobbyist may affect the objectivity of the advice, that's his choice to make."McCain has been to Georgia three times since 1997 and "this is an issue that he has been involved with for well over a decade," said McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers.McCain's strong condemnation in recent days of Russia's military action against Georgia as "totally, absolutely unacceptable" reflects long-standing ties between McCain and hardline conservatives such as Scheunemann, an aide in the 1990s to then-Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott.Scheunemann, who also was a foreign policy adviser in McCain's 2000 presidential campaign, has for years traveled the same road as McCain in pushing for regime change in Iraq and promoting NATO membership for Georgia and other former Soviet republics.While their politics coincide, Russia's invasion of Georgia casts a spotlight on Scheunemann's business interests and McCain's conduct as a senator.Scheunemann' s firm lobbied McCain's office on four bills and resolutions regarding Georgia, with McCain as a co-sponsor or supporter of all of them.After the latest $200,000 agreement with Georgia, McCain spoke with Saakashvili by phone. The senator then issued a strong statement saying that "we must not allow Russia to believe it has a free hand to engage in policies that undermine Georgian sovereignty."Rogers, the McCain campaign spokesman, said the call took place at the request of the embassy of Georgia. And McCain campaign spokeswoman Nicolle Wallace added that the senator has full confidence in Scheunemann. "We're proud of anyone who has worked on the side of angels in fledgling democracies," she said in an interview.McCain called Saakashvili again on Tuesday. "I told him that I know I speak for every American when I said to him, today, we are all Georgians," McCain told a cheering crowd in York, Pa. McCain's Democratic rival, Barack Obama, had spoken with Saakashvili the day before.In 2005 and 2006, McCain signed onto a resolution expressing support for the withdrawal of Russian troops from Georgia; introduced a resolution expressing support for a peace plan for Georgia's breakaway province of Ossetia; and co-sponsored a measure supporting admission of four nations including Georgia into NATO.On Tuesday, McCain told Fox News that "as you know, through the NATO membership, ... if a member nation is attacked, it is viewed as an attack on all."Scheunemann is part of the community of neoconservatives who relentlessly pushed for war in Iraq.No one in Washington is more closely aligned with the Bush administration's decision to invade Iraq than prominent neoconservatives, who for years had regime change in Iraq as a goal as part of their philosophy that the United States shouldn't be reluctant to use its power, both diplomatic and military, to spread "democracy" and to guarantee world order.Links to my sites: www.myspace.com/Mosc owNewYork http://www.ireport.c om/people/USRussia www.youtube.com/Prot ectSouthOssetia Email: SaveSouthOssetia@aol .com Related: obama ossetia russia medvedev bush cheney hitler goebbels rice georgia dictator saakashvili mccain palin un eu russophobe condoleezza ?????? favorite song saakashvili bomb ww3 ??? genocide ?????????? ??????????? ?????? ???-???? ?????? georgia ?????? ??? ??????? | |

| First CNN report from S Ossetia was reported only for CNN European viewers.Sun, 30 Nov 2008 12:43:18 -0800 by ProtectSouthOssetia08-08-14 First CNN report from S Ossetia was reported only for European viewers.CONDEMN CNNs REPORTING of LIESBY GEORGIAN MILITANT PRESIDENT SAAKASHVILITHAT AID THE GENOCIDE of S. OSSETIA PEOPLEUpdated on August 22, 20081. With 5 days of military response, Russia stopped a Georgian genocide of the South Ossetian people, acting in accord with a 1992 peacekeeping agreement by South Ossetian, Russian, and Georgian authorities under UN and CIS mandate. But hardliners in CNN and the rest of the corporate so-called Western media, as they did before the Iraq conflict, lie to the world about the Ossetian tragedy, siding with Georgian Hitler-like president Mikhail Saakashvili, who gets staunch support from Warmonger McCain and other neo-cons in Washington. Saakashvili troops attacked the small breakaway republic with carpet bombing and in 16 hours almost destroyed its capital on the eve of the Olympic Games, killing and wounding hundreds of sleeping civilians, many Russian peacekeepers and prompting almost half of the republic population to flee for safety to the Russian republic of North Ossetia. 2. In response to Saakashvilis inhumane aggression, Moscow sent additional forces to aid the peacekeepers in the conflict zone, but for several days greedy and cruel individuals in CNN were helping the Georgian ruler to continue his agenda of killing the Ossetian people. The appalling propaganda machine of CNN, which until two days after the end of war had been reporting only from the aggressor territory, manipulated heartbreaking video footage by the Russian news media from South and North Ossetia and presented the casualties as if they were Georgians. 3. This incredibly biased coverage by CNN and the rest of the Western media encouraged out-of-control Georgian ruler Saakashvili to use more Nazi-like propaganda to justify his ethnic cleansing, to cause huge destruction in the small breakaway republic, where most citizens are Russian nationals. Georgias military aggression in the capital of South Ossetia has resulted in the destruction of all the hospitals and the deaths of many children. But a biased CNN is practically silent. 4. On the second day of conflict the President of tiny South Ossetia, Eduard Kokoity, said that hundreds of Ossetian people have been killed by Georgian actions. What would the reaction be of CNN and the U.S. government if U.S. citizens were killed in the same numbers and proportion to our population? Why are the Ossetian people not good enough to have a right to exist in their own territory where they have lived for centuries? It is the third genocide of the Ossetian people from the side of Georgia in the last 100 years, and Saakashvili is the main murderer Kokoity said. 5. The Capital of South Ossetia looks like Stalingrad during WW2. The remaining residents of Tskhinvali were huddled for days in cellars beneath bombed-out buildings while CNN was providing a big stage to a cruel liar who was damaging Georgias interests and image by his own criminal action against humanity. Meanwhile, South Ossetians were struggling to survive without medicine, water, food or electricity in their capital. 6. In the first 5 days of war more than 30,000 refugees arrived in Russia's southern regions as people tried to flee the conflict zone. 7. For all those days of fighting CNN was almost silent and not explicit about the size of the South Ossetian humanitarian crisis, but gave plenty of airtime to Saakashvili for Nazi-like propaganda full of lies and distortions. (Some examples: video showing Sakakashvili running for cover from a non-existent air raid targeting him; bomb explosions near Tbilisi produced by Saakashvili fabricators; a bombed airport; a false attack on an oil pipeline that was not working for a month and was not essential; erratic speeches with an EU flag behind him; etc). CNN endlessly talked about no confirmed Russian attacks and aggressive plans to take over Georgian capital and oil pipeline, given zero opportunity for South Ossetian leaders to speak of the Ossetian peoples devastation.FORE MORE INFO AND TO SEE VIDEOS GO TO: WWW.MYSPACE.COM/MOSC OWNEWYORK WWW.IREPORT.COM/PEOP LE/USRUSSIA WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/PROT ECTSOUTHOSSETIA WWW.RUSSIATODAY.COM E-MAIL: SAVESOUTHOSSETIA@AOL .COM Related: cnn lies obama ossetia russia medvedev bush cheney hitler goebbels rice georgia dictator saakashvili mccain palin un eu russophobe condoleezza ?????? favorite song saakashvili bomb ww3 ??? genocide ?????????? ??????????? ?????? ???-???? ?????? georgia ?????? ??? ??????? | |
