Sarah Palin, an Armageddon and Rupture driven fundamentalist and extremist who as VP would have great odds of becoming President if McCain is elected, due to McCain's age and melanoma issues, said something that should chill the blood of every person on this planet, including small town America. She said that Georgia should join NATO, so next time it's involved in a military conflict with Russia, the US will be forced to attack Russia.
I wonder if small town America is aware that Russia isn't Iraq. It has a huge military and nearly 30,000 nuclear weapons, many of whom still targeted at US cities. How exactly would a conventional or nuclear confrontation with Russia improve the lives of rural, small town Americans and who will the burden of such a catastrophe fall on?
