#3 You sure this World Vision place isn't just going to spend the money on an Obama campaign ad? After all, the best way to help in Georgia is to disarm the imperialist AmeriKKKa forces that caused this war in the first place, by assisting democracy in Georgia...

#4 Apparently the American embassy there has emptied their stores providing whatever help they can to the Georgian refugees. If I recall correctly, the supplies they had on hand were a little odd for people who spend most of their time at dinner and cocktail parties. Despite wild claims to the contrary, it seems our people were not totally unprepared for current events.
