Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could point me to news sources for Ron Paul's claims? Namely:


70% of Georgia's budget is military.
Georgia as the aggressor
US action to protect oil pipeline.

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Cant find the budget figures but they have a budget just over 3 billion and we 'gave' a billion, 1/3 of their annual budget!

This is a really good article about how politicized the relationship with Georgia is. Lots of good MSM sources cited.

Hi,

Thank you for answering my questions, everyone. Ron Paul was kind of getting the brush off in this exchange. It's too bad he didn't cite a couple sources in order to become more authoritative.

It's still a good video, however.

Where are the Palindrones in this thread? Or are they too embarrassed about their little heartthrob's willingness to fight Russia over intervening in a country she didn't even know existed until a few weeks ago?
