Should Georgia Be Admitted to NATO?

[Tristuskhan]

The more I think about it the more it kind of annoys me. What's with all the European posters who think that the U.S. should use its military and treasury to protect the democracy of some small third rate microcountry? Is Europe completely impotent? Seriously, we in the U.S. have our own issues right now. It makes me steam a little bit how quickly people are eager to volunteer us to war efforts.

The problem is Georgia is not exactly democratic: the 2003 (?) movement replaced an authoritarian regime by another. If Georgia is a true democracy, then Russia is so: same state control on the press, same rights for political opposition.
