Only three ?????

Kihnu March 26, 2010, 13:34 quote

The three miserable Gitmoitos have now arrived in Tbilisi to live a "normal life". These tortured and abused people, who don't speak the local language and have no skills, will be housed, fed and taken care of for the rest of their lives at the expense of the Georgian people. I suppose these Gitmoitos will be showcased as celebrities to be wined, dined and passed around at Saakashvili's parties. Some of Georgia's 300,000 refugees from Abkhazia surely must wonder why they are not as well taken care of as these three "guests" of the Saakashvili government.
