&lt;p&gt;Sarah Palin
&lt;br /&gt;Rally
&lt;br /&gt;Green Bay, WI 09/18/08&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;SARAH PALIN: Here in Wisconsin, high gas prices there make a full tank at the pump feel like a luxury. And the cost of living is going up, and the cost of groceries is going up, everything is going up. But the value of your paycheck is going down and thats all because of energy costs. People are blaming Washington for doing next to nothing on this one, and theyve got that right. Our opponent says he wants to help Americans who are struggling with high energy costs, but time and time again he's sided with special interests and come out against solutions that would help Americans heat their homes and fuel up their tanks and pay their energy bills. And maybe if he'd been the governor of an energy-rich state, he'd get it. And maybe if he'd been on front lines of securing our nation's energy independence, then he'd understand. As governor of Alaska, Ive overseen a very large portion of our U.S. domestic production of oil, and through a heck of a lot of competition and hard work, Ive secured agreements to build a nearly $40 billion national gas pipeline to get our clean, green, natural gas down to hungry markets, like here in Wisconsin. I know what works and I know that America needs this.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TOPIC: McCain, Russia, Georgia, Human Rights, Oil, pipeline&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;MCCAIN: I'm deeply disturbed by reports of looting, burning villages, and killings of civilians that are in areas under Russian control. Anyone committing human rights abuses or acts in violation of the laws of war should be held accountable. At a time of high energy prices and instability in global markets, it's important to understand that events in Georgia, part of a strategic energy corridor, effects lives, individual lives far beyond the caucuses. Because of the fighting the Baku-Supsa oil pipeline has been shut down at a time when the Baku Tblisi Ceyhan pipeline is also closed. Those pipelines are critical for transporting oil from sources in the Caspian to points West. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Russia-Georgia Conflict Fueled by Rush to Control Caspian Energy Resources&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Human Rights Watch has accused both Russian and Georgian forces of killing and injuring civilians through indiscriminate attacks over the past week of fighting. Professor and author Michael Klare joins us to talk about how the Russian-Georgian conflict is largely an energy war over who has access to the vast oil and natural gas reserves in the Caspian region.

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;JOHN MCCAIN: I want to speak briefly to your about the issues that are at stake in this election and about the events that took place this week. And we have to be serious for a few minutes . . . as you know, over the past several days, we have seen that international aggression is tragically not a thing of the past. We thought we'd put a lot of that behind us in the 20th century but we see it rearing its ugly head in the 21st.  The small nation of Georgia has been subject to Russian attacks that threaten its very existence. Americans . . . may wonder where Georgia is, or why we should care . . . it's after all a small and remote and obscure place but history is often made in remote, obscure places . . . Georgia itself, my friends, has a long and remarkable history . . . it's been part of the grand sweep that compromises western civilization . . . their history hasn't been easy. Through the centuries, it's seen invasions and attacks . . . the were part of the Soviet Union . . . and were able to achieve their independence when the Soviet Union disintegrated . . . they're at a strategic crossroads. There's a pipeline, an oil pipeline, Baku-Tblisi and Ceyhan. It brings oil from the Caspian to points west and traverses Georgia. That's the very pipeline that the Russians tried to bomb. And I don't have to tell you about the price of oil and disruption of oil supplies. In this country, it's that little country, a country's territorial independence, integrity and sovereignty, NATO countries reaffirmed at their summit in April that terrible violence has occurred. On Friday, Russian tanks and troops moved through the Roki Tunnel, across an international recognized border and into the Georgian province of South Ossetia. Two years ago, I traveled to South Ossetia, my friends, and we went through this barricade . . . there was this huge billboard and it said, "Vladmir Putin, our president." Have no doubt about Russian ambitions in this area. The Russian government stated it was acting only to protect Ossetians and yet on Saturday, it's bombing campaign encompassed the whole of Georgia . . . yesterday, before the weekend ended, Russian troops drove the Georgians out of South Ossetia and stepped up their offensive in the region of "Kabkazia" [Abkhazia]. Abkhazia is another area that the Russians have controlled in violation of Georgian territorial integrity and Georgia asked for a cease fire and Russia responded by bombing the Tblisi airport . . . in 2006, I visted Senaki and reviewed the Georgian troops who had served with honor beside American soldiers in Iraq . . . President Medvedev has stated he has halted the offensive but reports indicate that Russian military forces have continued attacks . . . Foreign Minister Lavrov announced that Russia seeks regime change in Georgia . . . it's the responsibility of the leading nations of the world to ensure that history continues to reform and make progress towards respecting the values and security of all free people. This is the situation in Georgia as we meet here . . . the impact of Russian actions goes beyond their threat to a Democratic Georgia. Russia has used violence against Georgia to send a signal to any country that chooses to assciate with the west and aspire to our shared political and economic values. My friends, we learned at great cost the price of allowing aggression against free nations to go unchecked . . . we must stand in united purpose to ask the Russian government to withdraw its troops from Georgia. There must be an independent, international, peacekeeping force in the separatist regions . . . and we must make clear to Russia leaders that the benefit they enjoy from being part of the civilized world require their respect for the value of stability and peace for that world. [applause] . . . I know from speaking this morning to the President of Georgia . . . who I have known for many years, that he knows that the thoughts and prayers and support of the American people are with that brave little nation . . . he wanted me to say thank you to you . . . [applause] . . . I told him I know I speak for every American when I told him that today, we are all Georgians. [applause] . . . the energy crisis that we're in derives in part from the fact that we get much of our energy from that part of the world. The small nation of Georgia has an oil pipeline that delivers oil from the Caspian sea to other markets . . . another reminder that we get serious about our energy crisis and stop sending $700 billion a year overseas [applause] to countries that don't like us very much and stop this massive transfer of wealth. [standing ovation]&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;TRANSCRIPT:
&lt;br /&gt;JOHN MCCAIN: "Americans . . . may wonder why their newspapers and television screens are filled with images of war in the small country of Georgia. Concerns about what occurs there might seem distant and unrelated to the many other interests America has around the world. And yet Russian aggression against Georgia is both a matter of urgent moral and strategic importance to the United States of America . . . Following fraudulent parliamentary elections in 2003, a peaceful, democratic revolution took place, led by the U.S.-educated lawyer Mikheil Saakashvili. The Rose Revolution changed things dramatically and, following his election, President Saakashvili embarked on a series of wide-ranging and successful reforms. I've met with President Saakashvili many times, including during several trips to Georgia . . . In the face of Russian aggression, the very existence of independent Georgia . . . [is] at stake. In recent days Moscow has sent its tanks and troops across the internationally recognized border into the Georgian region of South Ossetia. Statements by Moscow that it was merely aiding the Ossetians are belied by reports of Russian troops in the region of Abkhazia, repeated Russian bombing raids across Georgia, and reports of a de facto Russian naval blockade of the Georgian coast . . . Russian actions, in clear violation of international law, have no place in 21st century Europe. The implications of Russian actions go beyond their threat to the territorial integrity and independence of a democratic Georgia. Russia is using violence against Georgia, in part, to intimidate other neighbors -- such as Ukraine -- for choosing to associate with the West and adhering to Western political and economic values. As such, the fate of Georgia should be of grave concern to Americans and all people who welcomed the end of a divided of Europe . . . The international response to this crisis will determine how Russia manages its relationships with other neighbors. We have other important strategic interests at stake in Georgia, especially the continued flow of oil through the Baku-Tblisi-Ceyhan pipeline, which Russia attempted to bomb in recent days; the operation of a critical communication and trade route from Georgia through Azerbaijan and Central Asia; and the integrity and influence of NATO, whose members reaffirmed last April the territorial integrity, independence, and sovereignty of Georgia. Yesterday Georgia withdrew its troops from South Ossetia and offered a ceasefire. The Russians responded by bombing the civilian airport in Georgia's capital, Tblisi, and by stepping up its offensive in Abkhazia. This pattern of attack appears aimed . . . at toppling the democratically elected government of Georgia. This should . . . draw us together in universal condemnation of Russian aggression. Russian President Medvedev and Prime Minister Putin must understand the severe, long-term negative consequences that their government's actions will have for Russia's relationship with the U.S. and Europe . . . The United States and our allies should continue efforts to bring a resolution before the UN Security Council condemning Russian aggression . . .  We should move ahead with the resolution despite Russian veto threats, and submit Russia to the court of world public opinion. NATO's North Atlantic Council should convene in emergency session to demand a ceasefire and begin discussions on both the deployment of an international peacekeeping force to South Ossetia and the implications for NATO's future relationship with Russia, a Partnership for Peace nation. NATO's decision to withhold a Membership Action Plan for Georgia might have been viewed as a green light by Russia for its attacks on Georgia . . . The Secretary of State should begin high-level diplomacy, including visiting Europe, to establish a common Euro-Atlantic position aimed at ending the war and supporting the independence of Georgia. With the same aim, the U.S. should coordinate with our partners in Germany, France, and Britain, to seek an emergency meeting of the G-7 foreign ministers to discuss the current crisis . . . Working with allied partners, the U.S. should immediately consult with the Ukrainian government and other concerned countries on steps to secure their continued independence . . . The U.S. should work with Azerbaijan and Turkey, and other interested friends, to develop plans to strengthen the security of the Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline. The U.S. should send immediate economic and humanitarian assistance to help mitigate the impact the invasion has had on the people of Georgia. Our united purpose should be to persuade the Russian government to cease its attacks, withdraw its troops, and enter into negotiations with Georgia . . . &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After four days of heavy fighting, Russian tanks are now approaching central Georgian cities away from the separatist regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. Russian officials say Georgia provoked the assault by attacking South Ossetia late last week, causing heavy civilian casualties. NATO's Secretary General and President Bush have both condemned Russia's "disproportionate" use of force in Georgia.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;(May 8, 2008) While oil and natural gas prices are skyrocketing, the world's
&lt;br /&gt;energy consumers are trying to find ways to reserve oil and gas for
&lt;br /&gt;themselves. Now, energy rich countries are using their resources as
&lt;br /&gt;political leverage: Iran is trying to sell it. Venezuela is trying to barter
&lt;br /&gt;and trade, while oil hungry countries use different strategies to buy into
&lt;br /&gt;Africa.  &lt;/p&gt;
