Kaine: Putin bent to Obama’s will posted at 11:50 am on August 12, 2008 by Ed Morrissey Send to a Friend | printer-friendly Like Jim Geraghty , I think Tim Kaine would make an excellent running mate for Barack Obama. Why, he already has imbibed fully of The One’s Kool-Aid with his analysis of the purpoted Russian cease-fire this morning. Kaine told Fox News that he was glad that Russia listened to Obama’s demand for a cessation of its attack on Georgia: It was a bad crisis for the world. It required tough words but also a smart approach to call on the international community to step in. And I’m very, very happy that the Senator’s request for a ...
Gov. Tim Kaine: Russia Bent To Obama’s Demands With Cease Fire
Say Anything —
First, the idea that the Russians are ceasing their aggressions in Georgia is a shaky one, at best. Second, the idea that they’re going to cease those aggressions because Obama told them to is just plain laughable.
It was a bad crisis for the world. It required tough words but also a smart approach to call on the international community to step in. And I’m very, very happy that the Senator’s request for a ceasefire has been complied with by President Medvedev.
These mental midgets do know Obama’s not the President yet, ...

Townhall.com Blog's TownHall Blog —
According to Tim Kaine -- Virginia governor and a top (eager!) contender for Barack's veep slot -- the Russian cease-fire is attributable to Putin and Mevedev adhering to "the senator [Obama's] call for a cease fire." This has to be the most inane comment out there, except perhaps for that of another aspiring veep, Bill Richardson, who told CNN that " President Obama will have a good, strong dialogue-oriented relationship with Russia, where these kinds of situations would not occur." These are the people who are hoping to join Barack -- a scant four years out of the Illinois state legislature -- at the top of the Democrat ticket?! Reality check: (1) As of ...

Turning Back The Russian Bear Is there nothing that Obama can't do? "It was a bad crisis for the world. It required tough words but also a smart approach to call on the international community to step in. And I'm very, very happy that the Senator's request for a ceasefire has been complied with by President Medvedev." Posted by Kate at August 13, 2008 1:08 AM

With my apologies to St. Luke….
The disciples went and woke him up, shouting, “Master, Master, we’re in a pickle!”When Barack woke up, he rebuked the Bear and its raging armies. Suddenly the conflict stopped and all was calm.
Obama 8:24
Honestly, what kind of a sycophant must you be to believe that Obama’s contorted response had anything to do with the events in Georgia? Apparently one who has less experience in his current role than the one who’s butt he’s trying to chap.
Kaine Says Russians "Complied With" Obama's Request for a Ceasefire; Tanks Continue Rolling Into Gori

Edwards Scandal A Boon for Gen X Author | Main Kaine Says Russians "Complied With" Obama's Request for a Ceasefire; Tanks Continue Rolling Into Gori August 13, 2008 7:44 AM"The Senator's goal was to be tough and smart," Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine said of Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, "and so when the action (in Georgia) happened on Thursday, he immediately called for a ceasefire, condemned the unwarranted use of force by Russia. It was a bad crisis for the world. It required tough words, but also a smart approach to call on the international community to step in -- and I'm very, very happy that the senator's request for a ceasefire has been complied with ...
VIDEOS: Obama Campaign Completely Confused Over Russian Invasion of Georgia
Flopping Aces —
This is not a joke. Within hours of a cease-fire having been declared in Georgia, Democrats raced to get on TV and claim that Senator Obama was the one person responsible for peace because he had asked for it (apparently similar calls from President Bush, Senator McCain, France, Germany, the EU and the UN were all sideshows-what mattered was what The One said).
THEN-when it came out that the Russians never really stopped their invasion, but merely paused to consolidate positions and logistics-Obama’s foreign policy advisor used her MSNBC propaganda outlet to claim that Senator McCain was responsible for fighting in Georgia.
Meanwhile, the ...

PLEASE Let it Be Joe Biden or Tim Kaine
The Next Right —
Could Obama's VP pick seriously be this lame?
I'm just passing on the latest I'm hearing--that Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) is moving up on the list of potential running mates for presumptive Democratic nominee Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.). While Obama's heart may go towards Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine--his head takes him to a more experienced pick, a Sen. Evan Bayh (D-Ind.) or Biden, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Biden (D-His Mouth):
Kaine is not much better.

Is US Media A Bigger Threat Than Russia?
Riehl World View —
Remember when Russia invaded Georgia and based only upon Obama's request Russia instituted a cease fire?
Well, Obama may have bested the Russians ... but apparently our media is just too powerful for him! Which leads to the obvious question: Who is the bigger threat to America - Russia, or the American press? ............. Not as easy a question to answer off the top of your head as one might hope, now is it? "Let me be as clear as possible," Obama said. "I think people's families are off-limits, and people's children are especially off-limits. This shouldn't be part of our politics. It has no relevance to Gov. Palin's ...
