A Dubious Honor


John McCain was just awarded an Order of the National Hero of Georgia by Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili for his heroic support of the Georgian military campaign against the sleeping citizens of South Ossetia in August of 2008.

So now our esteemed Senator is a hero of the country which still has multiple public displays of large portraits and statues of Stalin, which recently blew up the only WWII memorial in the city of Kutaisi to fallen soldiers fighting against the Nazi, and which recruited young people into its Army by using inspirational quotes from Adolf Hitler. A well deserved honor!

Congratulations, senator McCain! You are a true Georgian now!
