"There are gray areas in war."

Ya think? Shepard Smith didn't get the "Russians are evil" party line from this girl and her aunt that he interviewed after their escape from Ossetia. The U.S. has no business getting mixed up in this -- it's not our fight. Tell that to the McCainiacs who refuse to let go of their Cold War thinking. They continue to be stuck in the past. Russia is not the Soviet Union and Putin, anti-democratic thug he may be, is no Stalin.

There's gray areas in war...unless you're John McCain. Then it's all back and white, whatever we do is good, (i.e. in the 21st century nations don't invade other nations, unless you're us). Whatever they do is bad. And our only response is to flex US military might and if anyone questions the wisdom of that course they are unpatriotic saps.
