Media Blindly Accept Notion That Russia-Georgia Conflict Is Good For John McCain
Media Blindly Accept Notion That Russia-Georgia Conflict Is Good For John McCain
Since the violence broke out last week between Russian and Georgian military forces, pundits and media figures have been trying to determine how the conflict will affect the U.S. presidential election. Many in the media, however, have blindly asserted — seemingly without examining any evidence — that the war in Georgia helps Sen. John McCain (R-AZ). Some recent examples:
– Jill Zuckman, Chicago Tribune: “It’s just sort of a perfect thing for him.”
– Jeff Birnbaum, Washington Post: “This is McCain’s advantage here, advantage McCain. This is right in his sweet spot in foreign policy national security.”
– Mark Halperin, Time Magazine: “I think McCain benefits…this is good politically for John McCain”
Watch the compilation:
Halperin hinted at why many in the media think the Georgia-Russia conflict is a winner for McCain, becuase it “allows him to talk tough on foreign policy.”
But as Josh Marshall notes, “watching John McCain speak about the Georgian crisis [...] should deeply worry anyone interested in a sane US foreign policy,” suggesting that a President McCain would have pushed the U.S. closer to war during this particular crisis: “People need to wake up and get a look of the preview he’s giving us of a McCain presidency.” Some reasons to be worried:
– Group of 8: McCain wants to kick Russia out of the G8 — a plan he reiterated just yesterday and one that a “senior U.S. official” recently called “impossible” and “just a dumb thing.”
– League of Democracies: McCain has cited Russian “behavior” as justification to create a “League of Democracies” — a radical plan with a “hidden agenda” to “kill the United Nations” and one that has been “greeted with alarm by some Republican supporters and wariness by important U.S. allies.”
– Trusted Broker: The fact that McCain’s top foreign policy adviser, Randy Scheunemann, has spent a number of years lobbying on behalf of Georgia which raises some questions about whether McCain would serve as an honest broker in the Russia-Georgia conflict.
So it seems that for the media, McCain’s “tough talk” and thus predisposition for war is a political benefit.

The media loves McCain? The hell you say.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:15 pmHmm, the corporate media blindly trusts that the Russian-Georgian crisis is good for Old McWar, because the corporate media is blindly for Old McWar. Q.E.D.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:16 pmAndrew Sullivan said it best:
He's (McCain) despatching Lindsey and Joe as emissaries to the country immediately. He's on the phone with Sakashvilli daily. He's giving press conferences. He's warning of a new Tsarist empire. You can tell what sends him into high-energy zones: a clear enemy abroad. He knows black and white; and he knows war. It gives him clarity and strength. Up next: Iran and China. Oh, the conflicts we can have ...
If this is the dynamic you want to see in the next president, McCain is your man.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:19 pmJebus. It's Panderama.
Disgusting.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:19 pmAs usual, part of the problem is that the "media" aren't very bright and they are even more ovine than most people. Once one of the Smart People says this is good for McCain, the rest will fall into line, because (a) they don't know any better and (b) challenging the consensus would require too much effort. Best just to put their heads down and graze. When asked a question, respond "Baaaa."
August 13th, 2008 at 6:20 pmDeath and destruction are always expected to be positives for the GOP. When people are reluctant to connect the blood dots, the media can be counted on to eat and suck on McCain's Michael Weiner.

August 13th, 2008 at 6:25 pmAnd if we lose this fall, the media will portray us as having blown it. Don't buy into it, the media blew McCain.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:25 pm"I love John McCain because I'm an ass clown who takes in his B.S. by the boatload! I just say these things so that I might get a chance to have my way with Cindi when he takes a loooong nap at the next BBQ and striper function for us media people."
August 13th, 2008 at 6:28 pmExcerpt From Truthdig
Randy Scheunemann, for four years a paid lobbyist for the Georgian government ended his official lobbying connection only in March, months after he became Republican John McCain's senior foreign policy adviser.
Previously, Scheunemann was best known as one of the neoconservatives who engineered the war in Iraq when he was a director of the Project for a New American Century. It was Scheunemann who, after working on the McCain 2000 presidential campaign, headed the Committee for the Liberation of Iraq, which championed the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
There are telltale signs that he played a similar role in the recent Georgia flare-up. How else to explain the folly of his close friend and former employer, Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili, in ordering an invasion of the breakaway region of South Ossetia, an invasion that clearly was expected to produce a Russian counterreaction? It is inconceivable that Saakashvili would have triggered this dangerous escalation without some assurance from influential Americans he trusted, like Scheunemann, that the United States would have his back.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:29 pmRight now CNN is speaking of the Corsi Book defaming and slandering Obama by a former swiftboater.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:31 pmThey are saying the book is full of mischaracterizations and untruths, but at the same time they are advertising it.
Pardon me I am new here. who the F%^k are you?
August 13th, 2008 at 6:33 pmMy apologies if my posts are vulgar. It's the best way in my view to describe McCain and his media pals.
Too many neanderthals in this country with an "us winnin' at all costs vs. them demcrats'"
August 13th, 2008 at 6:35 pmAnd McCain is obviously better on security because he crashed four jets, bombed civilians, spent a long time in prison, and now talks tough. And Republicans are better for the country's security because the media has told us this 1,000 times. That's why we answer that way on surveys.

August 13th, 2008 at 6:37 pmCleanup on Aisle 11.
creusa1 is having a bout of Trollette's Syndrome.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:37 pmMcCain's blustering bravado underlines how powerless the U.S. is in this situation.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:37 pm“It’s just sort of a perfect thing for him.”
In a "Death becomes him" sort of way.
August 13th, 2008 at 6:39 pmCNN should just hire Michael Savage to complete the circle and commit to being Faux News Channel 2. I'm surprised Wolf Blitzer hasn't joined the Sith or that Glenn Beck hasn't been made Caesar of both networks yet.

It's that simple.
The Pukes are bandits, outlaws. They are OUTSIDE the law.
More chaos is better for the outlaws. There's less attention paid to them. They can steal more.
Fear is always a fine distraction. Think Naomi Klein. What will this crisis permit in the way of subverting our liberties? What will the bosses use it to accomplish, in the way of enriching themselves and impoverishing the rest of us?

August 13th, 2008 at 7:09 pmThe comments from the repugs msm are chilling.
These dummies are referring to war like mcchimpy hit a home run.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:12 pmLet me see how this worked out, McCain threatened to go after Russia and demanded that we go in to support Georgia (implying force) while Obama suggested parties cool down and negotiate. France sends in their president who garners a cessation of hostilities during the same day (with some additional fighting over the next couple days - as usually happens in these situations.)
Ok, so we need to go back with an ad as things settle down comparing McCain's approach to foreign policy to Obama's:
1. (Pictures of embattled soldier in the desert and street fighting and a voice over.) With 150,000 troops tied down in Iraq. With 35,000 more in Afghanistan while conditions continue to deteriorate and the wars costing us more than $10 billion a month, the United States is faced once again with an international conflict involving military action.
2. (Pictures of fighting in Georgia with the following voice over) When conflict erupted in Georgia, Barack Obama counseled both sides to settle down and negotiate. John McCain took an unbending stance against Russia and made threats. We saw how the conflict was resolved, a cease fire and negotiations. Obama backed the policy that succeeded, McCain backed the same old failed policy of bluster.
3. (Picture of McCain and his adviser.) John McCain relied upon the advice of a campaign adviser whose lobbying firm just received a $200,000 contract to represent Georgia. Same old influence, same old Washington politics.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:12 pmMcCain must be a wonderful source of amusement and delight for Putin, almost as hilarious as Bush.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:19 pmGlenn Beck is interviewing the Georgian President on his TV show. The Georgian President speaks good English, but gets all the kudos points and then some taken away for saying Dumbya made a "brilliant" statement on the crisis and that people showed up in the Georgian capitol to cheer and sing the countries national anthem. Gee...which flag wavers and "USA, USA!" crowd was he appealing to?!?!?!
August 13th, 2008 at 7:27 pmThere are two things we need to remember about our MSM. It is owned pretty much completely by conservatives and the second is that conservatives will always support other conservatives no matter how bad they are and what an idiot they are. It's called the "lemming" personality. You have to have it to be a conservative.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:29 pmAmen.

Personally I don't see the profit in nuclear war. Because that is what WWIII will be about.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:33 pmUnfortunately for the right, the true story of what happened in Georgia is coming out. I was talking to a go-worker today who was really upset because he thought that Russia had invaded Georgia unprovoked. Then he read that Georgia really started it. He was really pissed and asked me why the news didn't tell the truth. My reply was, "because they are a wholly owned subsidiary of the RNC".
August 13th, 2008 at 7:39 pmGlenn Beck is getting geeked up, ready to declare that Stalin has risen from the grave and that Marx's ghost is inhabiting Barack Obama. The neocons need the Russians to be the bad guy, because you see where they're going after Iran has a checkmark next to it.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:44 pmMedia Blindly Accept Notion That Russia-Georgia Conflict Is Good For John McCain»
And some of the blogs in comments areas on online newspapers across this country are unbelievable. Testosterone levels are up and the goppers are with McCain, cheering him on as he will win a war against Russia.
To the intelligent bloggers here:
August 13th, 2008 at 7:49 pmGet out there and kick some ignorant butt.
Glenn Beck had an IQ of 6. After the drugs and alcohol it must be down to about 3.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:50 pmAnd let's not forget McCain is the idiot who says nations don't invade nations, blissfully ignoring the fact the U.S. did just that to Iraq & Afghanistan. He truly is clueless- not a leader, and certainly not presidential.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:58 pmHell Putin is trying to get Russia back in the world as a super power. What i think is really funny is Russia mock puppet pres Dmitry wont give Chechnya freedom becauase its just a small rogue state but is more than happly to step in and "help out" his comrades in south Osseita get free from the horrible US loving country of Georgia.
August 13th, 2008 at 7:58 pmI say since John McCain knows how to win wars we should ship him over to Georgia and than Iraq to win these wars...
August 13th, 2008 at 8:04 pmMcCain also claims that he wouldn't go into Pakistan if he were president and they had Bin Laden's location pin pointed, because they were a sovereign nation....And Iraq and Afghanistan aren't??
August 13th, 2008 at 8:07 pmCall me crazy but I truly believe this whole ordeal between Russia and Georgia was planned all along to help McCain become president. We couldn't bomb Iran so stirring up shit with Russia was the next best thing.
August 13th, 2008 at 8:17 pmUncle Fester, I won't call you crazy, but I don't think the Bush-McCain team would be capable of pulling it off if they wanted too. But I'm sure they're dreaming of even weirder scenarios. I

Georgia War a Neocon Election Ploy?
Posted on Aug 12, 2008
October comes early? Sen. John McCain and Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili.
By Robert Scheer
http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20080812_georgia_war_a_neocon_election_ploy/
August 13th, 2008 at 8:42 pmi'm listening to thom hartmann rebroadcast... where i heard about the above writing...
another caller remind us of where kkkarl rove was not to long ago... remember the beach vacation to crimea?
aaah - check out democraticunderground ...
August 13th, 2008 at 8:45 pmYes, they tell us again and again that McCain has the edge in this area because of his great foreign policy experience. I'm still waiting to hear what that experience consists of. McCain is right, however, that we have to bomb, bomb, bomb Iran to stop them from training al-Qaeda and re-focus on the problems along the Iraq/Pakistan border.
August 13th, 2008 at 8:58 pmThe idea it helps McCain can be seen in the eyes of the end timers. Look closely, they see him as their Armageddon man. The way to the rapture is through the old white haired wrinkly dude. Also, it seems too perfectly scripted to be something that the administration and the McCain campaign (Rove) didn't cook up. We never have worried about the thousands that had to die before, why start now?
August 13th, 2008 at 9:22 pmWhere did Karl Rove disappear a couple of weeks ago? Was it in Crimea?
August 13th, 2008 at 9:49 pmThe story is exactly right, the media assumes John McCain is some kind of military expert. The fact is that he isn't at all. Just look at his reaction to this unfortunate situation and it will tell you all you need to know about how he thinks. His first instinct is to suggest that we confront Russia militarily. Lets look at the facts as they are and not the way the media protrays them. Our military is bogged down in Iraq and we have to be in Afganistan. That accounts for vertually every active combat unit we have on active duty. Second, you can't fight another war if you don't have the troops to do so.
Next, what fool in his right mind would unnecessarily start a was with another super power? Apparently John McCain isn't in his right mind, because he wants to take on Russia militarily. He forgot that they have hundreds of nuclear weapons already aimed at us just waiting for the order to launch. Also you can't fight a war with no troops. If this fool provokes Russia into fighting that could end up in a nuclear showdown we can't afford. Why? In a nuclear war humanity loses because the earth can't support life if it's contaminated for thousands of years.
The statement made by McCain was not only wreckless, but dangerous to the entire human race. We are dealing with a mad man in Putin, and we don't need to give him a reason to try to win a nuclear war. He doesn't carea about the Russian people, so what has he got to lose? McCain also has nothing to lose, because as President he's have a bunker full of food to last until he's 100 years old. It's the rest of us who would be screwed. I'm not trying to live in a contaminated ruins are you? For all of you fools who can't see McCain is dangerous, you'd better wake up before it's too late.
This man thinks that a war is the solution to any problem and that's stupid and foolish. The only good war is the one you don't fight. I'll fight for my country at the drop of a hat, but I don't want my children's future destroyed by some old fart wanta be tough guy. He's still fighting the Viet Nam war in his head, but it's been over for 30 years. He still thinks we an win that war. I'm sure he blames us for losing it although most of us had nothing to do with the decisions that we made. If McCain wants to fight let him join the Army and go to Iraq.
August 13th, 2008 at 10:00 pmThe media accepts it? No, the media is pushing it! He came out like a rabid dog with his accusations about Russia the same way GW came out about Irag's WMD, the axis of evil, and his "war on terror". Mr. McCain's reaction is just another good, very good, example of why we cannot afford him as president for the next four years, much less eight years.
August 13th, 2008 at 10:08 pmOh, yeah, sure. Especially when he says shit like this:
Speaking to reporters about the situation in Georgia, Sen. John McCain denounced the aggressive posture of Russia by claiming that:"in the 21st century nations don't invade other nations."
Did McCain forget about Afghanistan AND Iraq?
August 13th, 2008 at 10:27 pmI really hadn't paid attention to this conflict until the Russian invasion started in shock and awe fashion. Since then I have learned a small amount of the background.
If I read correctly what happened before the Russian invasion it was Georgia that provoked this conflict when they sent troops into disputed territory administered by Russia. This would make it a case of self defense for Russia, even though they have responded disproportionitely.
Behind the scenes it looks like the Bush administration has egged on the Georgia government to provoke this conflict. With a President that is a loose cannon it hardly makes sense to dare him to do what he wants to do in the first place. Diplomacy, however is always the last resort for this administration.
August 13th, 2008 at 11:47 pmSo... the war in Georgia is good for McCain because it allows him the opportunity to say even more stupid things than he otherwise would, such as "nations don't invade other nations in the 21st century"?
Ok, then...
August 13th, 2008 at 11:51 pmNot to mention the sickening notion that, while Ossetians and Georgians die, these brain dead talkingheads are busy trying to find out who can benefit politically from the tragedy.
Yeah, them "liberal" media are at it again.
August 13th, 2008 at 11:52 pmThe media takes it's talking points from the reichwingnuts without ever questioning anything. We have the most worthless lot in the media of any country. I am old enough to have seen much better. The reichwingnuts have successfully turned the fourth estate into a form of Pravda like the old USSR had. Nothing they say has ever been investigated or vetted.
August 14th, 2008 at 12:05 amTP - Media Blindly Accept Notion That Russia-Georgia Conflict Is Good For John McCain
not keith olberman... well worth a look to find tonight's show...
August 14th, 2008 at 12:24 amJill Zuckman is in McCain pocket.Anyone remembers the Barbecue Mcshame gave for his media darlings.Seems like that was enough to buy her off also pay attention to Lynn Sweet another McCain supporter in the media.
August 14th, 2008 at 1:10 amJohn McCain is considered an "expert" because he's a veteran, who happens to be a Senator, who happens to shake his stick and yell wildly at world events and leaders until the media hounds go, "see, that's John McCain being John McCain...gotta love it". If McCain is an "expert" on world politics, Big Bird should be his Secretary of Defense and Charles Manson should be the Attorney General...because that is how much credibility the President's office will have, yet again!
August 14th, 2008 at 1:30 amAccording to Dr. Harlan Ullman we still don`t know who started it 100 percent yet.........Mcwars foreign policy expert is gem of a loser and is not helping the matters in Georgia, either.
August 14th, 2008 at 1:38 amI guess in the sports world, if you have a bunch of athletes who sign autographs, talk nice with the radio hosts and give them team insignia merchandise, you'll have your own media cheerleaders no matter if you get arrested for beating your wife, firing nine shots into the air outside a nightclub or playing pinball on the city streets at 1:49 in the morning while drunker than a whole frat house on homecoming and have a winning percentage that reads like our president's approval rating.
So in the political world if you're running for the office of president, with no real message other than you'll pass along the buck of the current retarded neighbor boy occupying the office, you'll just put a lot meat over a big fire, slap on some sweet and smoky sauce then slap those media clowns on the back while you blow up balloon animals and reassure them they matter in a sick/sad support group roast where they pledge that you're the nicest, most honest guy they've come across because you make insensitive jokes and made them feel human for five hours at a glorified picnic at a mansion with Cadaver the Unfunny Ass and having his wife play the role of the Beer Maiden, where you swear she's looking at you even harder after every beer you pound...but she's just the cherry on top of the sick sundae they've all swallowed whole, with the myopic brain freeze a near permanent after effect.

I just pictured McCain sitting on a rocking chair on his porch calling Vladimir Putin a bratty whippersnapper and telling him to get off his lawn. :)
August 14th, 2008 at 7:37 amThe MSM wants more illegal wars/occupations/invasions because it's been profitable for them, so of course they want everything that happens to benefit Johnny McTeleprompter! They need him to continue the war profiteering.
August 14th, 2008 at 7:53 amBarack Obama could send his pet dog to Georgia and would get a worldwide positive response. But when Johnny McTeleprompter sends in 2 Right Wing Warmongering Lying Dumbos, the world cringes just as it has for the past 8 years under George Bush.
Johnny has Georgian government lobbyists working on his campaign. If anything gets done, we can thank the lobbyists, you know, the lobbyists Johnny says aren't working for him. Spit. I'm sure this whole invasion was planned and conspired by his lobbyists to make him look like a foreign expert dynamo!
August 14th, 2008 at 7:56 amI found this on DU -- I don't expect the msm is investigating.
August 14th, 2008 at 8:58 amThe White House has started to panic over a July 9 meeting between Condi Rice and Mikheil Saakashvili, desperate to suggest they didn't encourage Georgia's crack-down in South Ossetia. Given that panic, I wonder whether Karl Rove had any similar chats with Saakashvili when they were in Yalta together just days later?
i really think having an inexperienced cavalier guy like Obama would be great in these situations..He will be able to help negotiate russian pullouts of Poland and the Ukraine later because if someone that spineless gets in thats exactly where they will go..He has already said "Nuclear Options are never an option" Thats good he took that off the table..I am sure Putin feels the same way..
August 15th, 2008 at 4:30 pmSince Obama has already taken that "Deterent" off the table,Russia, China and Iran would never do anything to upset us..We might want to "talk" about it....SCARRYYYYYYYY
JFK "blustered" at the Bay of Pigs....Ronald Reagan "Blustered" at the END of the cold war...those Crazy war mongering "blusterheads"...What do people like that ever accomplish..If you liberal smackdogs would look at reality for a change..Maybe "global warming" has numbed your minds..
Strength is a greater keeper of peace than weakness.
Lets see my choice is John McCain or that smart black man Barack Obama?

My Choices are: John McCain who says the economic downturn is psychological? - Na! I'll vote for the smart black man.
McCain who says you are better off under George Bush? - Nope I'll vote for the smart black man.
Mc Cain who wants to continue killing more people looking for weapons of mass destruction that do not exist? - Gee! I'll vote for the smart black man.

Vote for the man with the worst temper in the Senate to have his finger on the nuclear button? - No way - I'll vote for the smart black man.
August 15th, 2008 at 8:19 pmMy Choices are: John McCain who says the economic downturn is psychological? - Na! I’ll vote for the smart black man. yea he can raise our taxes and give healthcare to illegal aliens with our money//

Mc Cain who wants to continue killing more people looking for weapons of mass destruction that do not exist? - Gee! I’ll vote for the smart black man.
I think we stopped looking a long time ago..we are trying to stabilize a democracy..
McCain who believes that we should stay the course but is not willing to support the people he puts in harms way. - I’ll take a chance on the smart black man.
Not support..yea..he has been one of those people in harms way ..umm..I think that part of his life is public record..

Did someone say smart Black Man..Why does the color of your finger matter..you either protect the country or you do not.
you go ahead and vote for the smart black man..You worry about human life in this war? really..less than 5000 american lives have been lost in this war that is supported by the experienced white man. 50,000,000 aborted fetuses supported by the smart black man. you value human life if it furthers your personal goals..what value do those 50 million lives have in comparison. one has supported freedom for a country that has not known it..and that freedom has a human cost
It amazes me that the liberal can shout "baby killer" at our veterans when they return home..yet they have killed more babies with their abortion policies than all the wars in the past 1000 years combined.
