A Tale of Two Georgias

Watching the Georgian Foreign Minister on Hard Talk was hilarious. You were wrong, dear. Everyone now recognises that. You stand absolutely no chance of ever being let into either NATO or the EU whose flag you display everywhere.

Abkhazia and South Ossetia were never really yours, and your attempt to annex and ethnically cleanse them was spectacularly incompetent even in its own despicable terms.

The rest of us should recognise them immediately. Undoubtedly, before long, we will.

But there is another Georgia, and it matters rather more. I know that I have readers there, since they have posted comments or emailed me in the past. So, have you been out and voted for Jim Martin in the run-off today?

Only Obama’s betrayal of his economically populist, morally and socially conservative, foreign policy realist supporters, black and white, can save Saxby Chambliss now. Don’t let it. Instead, return an economically populist, morally and socially conservative foreign policy realist to the Senate.

Let that be your answer to Obama. And your warning to him.
