Obama campaign confronts WGN radio

DENVER -- Sen. Barack Obama's campaign organized its supporters Wednesday night to confront Tribune-owned WGN-AM in Chicago for having a critic of the Illinois Democrat on its air. "WGN radio is giving right-wing hatchet man Stanley Kurtz a forum to air his baseless, fear-mongering terrorist smears," Obama's campaign wrote in an e-mail to supporters. "He's currently scheduled to spend a solid two-hour block from 9:00 to 11:00 p.m. pushing lies, distortions, and manipulations about Barack and University of Illinois professor William Ayers." Kurtz, a conservative writer, recently wrote an article for the National Review that looked at Obama's ties to ...

One person familiar with the calls said the party was being instructed to prepare for ...

1 hour, 5 minutes ago GORI, Georgia - Russia's president promised to start withdrawing forces from positions in Georgia on Monday, but suggested they could stay in the breakaway region at the heart of the fighting that has reignited Cold War tensions. Top American officials said Washington would rethink its relationship with Moscow after its military drive deep into its much smaller neighbor and called for a swift Russian withdrawal. "I think that there is a real concern that Russia has turned the corner here and is headed back toward its past rather than toward its future, and my hope is that we will see actions in the weeks and months to come that provide us some ...

2 minutes ago TBILISI, Georgia - Georgia's president grudgingly signed a truce with Russia Friday, even as he denounced the Russians as invading barbarians and accused the West of all but encouraging them to overrun his country. A stone-faced Condoleezza Rice, standing alongside, said Russian troops must withdraw immediately from their smaller neighbor. President Bush talked tough, too, accusing the Russians of "bullying and intimidation," but neither he nor Rice said what the U.S. might do if Russia ignored them. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's press office had no information Friday night on whether he had signed the cease-fire agreement. Even as Rice stood with ...

Moscow, however, feels it is aimed at Russia's missile force. "Poland, by ...

The Ashes of Victory (Russia flexes muscles against NATO)
Post Date: 2008-08-13 18:23:45 by Rotara
2 Comments
A reinvigorated and self-confident Russia flexed its muscles and concluded a decisive victory over America’s ally, Georgia, yesterday after a cruel, six-day war. America’s Cold War rival had been a simple spectator to events on its borders since the Soviet Union’s collapse in 1991. The independence declarations of former Soviet republics, NATO’s expansion eastwards to its doorstep and the American military presence in Central Asia had left the former superpower with a feeling of powerlessness and loss of pride that the NATO bombing of its historical ally, Serbia, in 1999, only deepened. With its first military action abroad since the 1979 invasion of Afghanistan, ...

13/08/08 WASHINGTON :The White House said on Tuesday it was 'irrelevant' who was to blame for the bloody conflict between Georgia and Russia and that all combatants must now pull back and end the fighting. "I don't think I'm going to get into the position of blame," spokesman Tony Fratto said when asked whether Tblisi's August 6th offensive had triggered the crisis. "I think it's actually an irrelevant question." "Regardless, the point is, at this point, is that the parties should pull back" to where they were prior to Georgia's push into South Ossetia late last week.
