I admire the sense of humor of the Gerogian opposition!

If you remember, in August 2008, Saakashvili was caught on camera  nervously chewing his necktie while discussing the Georgian-Russian conflict over South Ossetia by telephone with a top Western official. Psychologists say it was a sign of cowardice.

Today, in addition to "carrots and cabbages", the Georgian opposition also began a "tie protest" near the presidential residence, decorating its fence with neckties of different colors. A leader of the opposition says, "Everyone who hangs a tie here will be able to make a wish, and I am sure every one of us will have the same wish – for the president to step down."
