Obama's plan would save me money. Nevertheless, I agree with fezzy that I don't vote for candidates in order to save money. The Georgian conflict saw any chance of me ever supporting Obama go right out the window. Sorry to go off track like that. 
That conflict is Obama's fault?
What I said was half-hyperbolic. 
My point is that I was disappointed by Obama merely calling for a ceasefire. I found Russia bullying Georgia to be despicable, & I was happy that McCain condemned Russia for that. I'm usually not one to care for words, but that makes me wonder if Obama actually understood what was happening or if he just rattled off a standard anti-conflict statement.
Putin is an authoritarian bastard, but it should be reminded that Georgia decided that opening day of the Olympics was a good day to invade South Ossetia, and that we like Georgia because of their oil pipeline.
Georgia is by no means clean in this incident. Nevertheless, Russia's overresponse is just as much of a problem as Georgia attacking South Ossetia. After all, Georgia's questionable actions don't give Russia permission to overrun Georgia.
As such, I admired McCain for scolding Russia. Would have been nice if he scolded Georgia too, though.
Obama scolded both Russia and Georgia. McCain basically called for war with Russia on Georgia's behalf. I'm not sure why you like McCain better on this given the description you've given of your position.
