*Main Topic:* Georgia War
*Summary of Shift: *The three networks led with coverage of the surprise
cease-fire announced today by the Russian President. Despite this shift,
pockets of violence are being reported throughout Georgia, and the question
of how long Russian soldiers will remain in occupation lingers. Olbermann
highlighted McCain's mispronunciation of the Georgian President's name, the
exploitation of the war as a campaign tactic, the shallowness of McCain's
appeal on the issue, and finally the conflict of interest Randy Scheunemann
poses as a former lobbyist for Georgia. Olympic coverage still dominated the
cycle with some concerns about swimsuit technology artificially allowing
athletes to shatter world records. In domestic news, Nancy Pelosi signaled
that she may allow a vote on offshore drilling, oil prices are down while
food and shipping prices steadily rise, continued coverage of the leaked HRC
strategy memos, and* *more segments on backyard oil millionaires in North
Dakota.
Highlights:
1. FNC: McCain uses Georgian War to Distance Himself from Bush
2. * *FNC: Pawlenty Emphasizes 'Party of Ideas' brand for GOP*
*
3. ABC: McCain has better record of bipartisanship than Obama
4. MSNBC: Fineman Highlight's McCain's Adoption of Mark Penn Strategy To
Portray Obama As Foreign
5. MSNBC: Maddow and Olbermann Discuss McCain's Crass Exploitation Of
Georgian War, Conflict of Interest, Shallow Appeals
Clips:
*Highlight #1*
*John McCain uses Georgian Distance Himself from President Bush* (FNC
08/12/08 07:05pm)
SHEPHARD SMITH: Now John McCain says Georgia is at a strategic crossroads,
and he's calling on Russia again to withdraw those troops. McCain says he's
talked to Georgia's President and told him the United States will support
what he calls this little tiny democracy.
JOHN MCCAIN: *And I told him that I know I speak for every American when I
say to him, today we are all Georgian.*
[…]
CARL CAMERON: Well he says he's been talking to Saakashvili everyday since
the Russian invasion began on Friday. *And he made the point that he thinks
the Bush administration probably underestimated Russia's expansionist
intentions and ambitions throughout the region, and specifically drew
differences with himself and President Bush on foreign policy and how
trustworthy the President thought Vladimir Putin is.*
MCCAIN: I don't know if the President quote, missed the boat, but I do
believe the President isn't, probably had a higher opinion of Vladimir Putin
than I do.
CAMERON: McCain suggested that Russia did score a victory here and the US
relationship will be affected for years.
SMITH: Politics entering this of course. And some Republicans have said
that Obama's response to the crisis hasn't been as strong as McCain's. What
does McCain have to say about that?
CAMERON: Well he is having none of that, while his aides suggest that
Senator McCain has greater experience. When I talk to the Arizona Senator
about it today, he was not going to criticize; saying now is the time to
sort of leave partisanship at the waters edge if you will. He pulled his
punches:
MCCAIN*: I respect Senator Obama's views and I believe that it's important
that we act in a bipartisan fashion now. There's no room for partisanship
now.*
CAMERON: *He's called him naive and inexperienced in the past.*

*Tim Pawlenty: The Republican Party Needs to be a Party of Ideas, and John
McCain has Ideas* (FNC 08/11/08 05:16pm)
HEATHER NAUERT: […] what is a Sam's Club Republican. Who are these folks,
Governor, and why do you believe that the Republican Party is losing what
you call Sam's Club Republican's.
TIM PAWLENTY: *In short, the Republican Party needs to do a better job of
reaching out to different groups than just our traditional groups. And one
of those is people who might shop at a place like Sam's Club or Target or
Costco*. They are looking for value, they don't necessarily have more money
to spend, but they want to make sure they get good value for what they have.
So living within their means, making sure government lives within its means
might be one of the measurements for them and what they're looking for in a
candidate. *[…] I think the Republican Party needs to get back to being a
party of ideas and enthusiasm that will help people where their real needs
are and where their real concerns are. And I don't think we've done as good
of a job in that in recent years as we could. *
NAUERT: Ok it sounds like you are talking about some of these Reagan
democrats of the 80's that John McCain is of course hoping to bring into the
party. But you know a lot of conservatives feel that the Republican Part
has really gotten off course, there's too much government spending. What do
you say to those conservatives who are uncertain about the direction of the
Republican Party today?
PAWLENTY: […] We need to be the party that says all right if government
isn't going to deal with these things then what are our ideas to make sure
peoples needs and concerns can get addressed. […] *Well maybe Senator
McCain's idea for a tax cut to allow people to purchase their own heath
insurance would be the way to go. It would be one example of not building a
government bureaucracy*. […]
NAUERT: […] Tell us what you would bring to John McCain's team?
PAWLENTY: Well I don't talk about the vice president's stuff. […] In general
Senator McCain is going to have some great people to look at. He has so
many strengths, such a strong leader in his own right that I think he's
going to look for somebody who strengthens him in some geographic or policy
consideration. Somebody who shares his views and maybe his outlook for the
country from a philosophical direction. […]
NAUERT: […] But it is said that you two share a close relationship and a
really a political style that is the same.
PAWLENTY: Well I think Senator McCain is a leader of enormous courage and
epic abilities. I think the country is calling him out, they need somebody
like him. I think he is going to be a fantastic President for the United
States of America <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPxOJI3wLZU>

*ABC World News: John McCain has a Better Record of Bipartisanship Then
Barack Obama* (ABC 08/12/08 06:49pm)
JAKE TAPPER: In York, PN, John McCain was introduced by Joe Lieberman, who
calls himself an Independent Democrat.
JOE LIEBERMEN: It's great to be here with Rocky McCain.
TAPPER: 13% of Democrats support McCain. […]
JOHN MCCAIN: I just want to say I have a record of reaching across the
aisle, of reaching across the aisle and working with my friends, whether it
be Joe Lieberman or Ted Kennedy.
TAPPER: *McCain has broken with his party on controversial issues such as
campaign finance reform, global warming and most recently immigration
reform, his support for which almost cost him the Republican nomination. In
the Senate, Obama has teamed up with Republican's […] but nothing that has
caused him any real political
trouble.*<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0UNOq-YKgI>
*Highlight #4*
*Howard Fineman Highlights Strategy Of Portraying Obama As The Other,
Non-American* (MSNBC 08/12/08 8:02pm)
HOWARD FINEMAN: Well McCain didn't so much just wrap himself in the flag in
York today, he was in it tighter than one of those swimmers in the Olympics
in those new bathing suits. I mean they not only did the pledge of
allegiance, and the star spangled banner, they did God Bless America, again
they did a whole number of things to try emphasize in York, Pennsylvania
this old colonial town in East Central Pennsylvania the America theme that
John McCain is running on. And I was there when Joe Lieberman introduced
him and said you know we want one guy who puts America first and reaches
across party lines and one guy who does not. And it struck me as fighting
words for sure. And it'll be interesting what if anything the Obama campaign
does about it.
KEITH OLBERMANN: […] Isn't this all 6 inches away from being racism?
FINEMAN: […] It's about the idea of mystery and difference. It can take all
kinds of forms. It can take allegations of elitism, it can take allegations
of religious background, race may be part of it, I stil don't think if you
asked McCain flat out if you agree with this kind of messaging that he would
necessarily approve of it or support it. But there's no doubt that that's
the implication of what Lieberman said and what Mark Penn's memos are about.
As you pointed out Keith, Hawaii is part of the United
States.<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEu1HsxP6LU>

*Maddow and Olberman Discuss McCain's Political Exploitation Of Georgian
Crisis, Lobbyist Ties, Focus On Oil And Religion Rather Than Civilian Deaths
* (MSNBC 08/12/08 8:22pm)
KEITH OLBERMANN: […] Could someone tried to have looked slightly like they
were not exploiting Georgia for political gain?
RACHEL MADDOW: What a handy little war this has turned out to be, right? […]
For all the political celebrating, you could hardly make out the dead
civilians here.
OLBERMANN: *Two of the McCain stated reasons for protecting Georgia: Christ
and Oil.* Apart from it sounding more and more Goldwaterian here, these are
good enough reasons to reignite the Cold War?
MADDOW: Him and what army? We're not going to go to war with Russia any time
soon. I mean obviously Russia is way out of line and Russia under Putin is
not only a threat to that region but a threat to the global order of things
and it's a scary thing. There's two ways to approach that. You either invade
Moscow or you try to unite the world and unite NATO even in opposition to
what Russia is doing. You don't do that by taking off your shoe and banging
pounding it on the podium and saying *'I'll get you Russia my foreign policy
guy is a registered lobbyist for your country, the country that you just
invade.' That's not the way you move things forward in the same way*.
OLBERMANN: By the way how is that not a big front page conflict of interest
in the middle of what apparently a shooting war?
MADDOW: *Randy Scheunemann, top foreign policy aide to John McCain, til
March the registered agent of the government of Georgia, one of the two
parties involved here. And McCain coming out here bellicose as all get out
on wading into this conflict essentially with talking points that were
bought and paid for by one of the governments that is party to this
conflict. If you want to look like an honest broker, that is not the way to
do it. You don't take Randy Scheunemann out on the campaign trail with you
to show off your lobbyists.*
OLBERMANN: And having briefed the reporters on the plane coming back from
Pennsylvania. 100 years in Iraq or a month, we've heard that. 100 or a month
with the bomb bomb bomb Iran song, now this garbage between Russia and
Georgia and it's exploitation by the McCain campaign. You use the word
bellicose. It seems worse than that. More bellicose than what Bush and
Cheney put out for 8 years.
