Why does Georgia matter?

| | Comments (0)

John McCain's visit to York yesterday sounded like a policy speech for part of the time set to "Georgia on My Mind." But why does Georgia (the country, not the U.S. state) matter?

Oil. I mean, c'mon, why else does anything that happens outside the borders nowadays matter to Americans?

Read this from Time magazine.

The move into Georgia is muscle flexing south and east, and south and east of Russia are just about the only places in the world that have more oil than Russia itself.

Anyone else more interested now?
