My latest installment on Pajamas Media reveals the horrifying manner in which Vladimir Putin's Kremlin has obliterated every single opposition candidate from the March presidential election which would in any case anoint Putin's hand-picked underling as his nominal successor while Putin retains all the real power as prime minister. The final nail in democracy's coffin is the striking of Putin's own former prime minister Mikhail Kasyanov from the ballot. Check it out, and feel free to leave your comments as to the best way of responding to this final neo-Soviet outrage.
It's not an academic question any more. Last night, a triumphant John McCain, who has called for aggressively confronting neo-Soviet Russia, surged to a devastating victory in the Florida primary, eliminating Rudy Giuliani from the race and collecting his endorsement. Perennial loser Mike Huckabee, also a McCain fan, is staying in the race, drawing votes from Mitt Romney, whom McCain crushed in the Sunshine State by a much wider margin than expected despite being vastly outspent and facing a closed primary where independents could not help him; McCain already leads in the polls in most of the Super Tuesday states for the likely decisive final contest next week. Exit polls showed voters have more confidence in McCain than Romney on Romney's base issue, the economy, indicating he has little chance to stage a comeback. In other Florida news, despite the Kennedy clan endorsement of Obama (or perhaps because of it?) Hillary took him to the woodshed. McCain vs. Clinton? Let the salivating begin!
Who would be his best vice-presidential choice? Ideas?
McCain's time has certainly come, and none too soon given Putin's shamelessly barbaric actions against Kasyanov. America needs a new Russia policy, and it needs it yesterday. John McCain is precisely the man to step into the void and provide Regan-like leadership as the world once against struggles to hold back Russia's Iron Curtain.
Go, McCain, go!

ROOSEVELT AND STALIN: THE FAILED COURTSHIP
http://www.theadvocates.org/freeman/8910ebel.html
In Roosevelt's mind, the enemy of peace and order in the postwar era wouldn't be Soviet Communism, but the imperialism and colonialism of the European empires, particularly Great Britain's. This was the threat to a future of Soviet-American "democracy."
But Stalin was suspicious of the capitalist West, Roosevelt argued. He had to be coaxed into trusting the West and working for the worldwide "New Deal." This was the motive behind Roosevelt's infamous remark that "I think if I give [Stalin] everything I possibly can, and ask nothing from him in return, noblesse oblige, he won't try to annex anything and will work with me for a world of peace and democracy." (Roosevelt's dreams were reinforced by leftist intellectuals and government employees -- a handful of whom later were found to be Soviet agents -- who surrounded the President during the New Deal days and the war years.)
yeah, good friends... one surrounds the other with manipulators and spies and controls the situation, and thats what you call 'friendship'. it explains a lot about neo soviet politics no?
"Yalta performed a service to the Soviets that was almost as important to Stalin as the occupied areas themselves. This was the invaluable service of giving moral legitimation to what Stalin had acquired by sheer force." Yalta legitimized and justified the Soviet domination of Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, East Germany, and Mongolia. It gave moral standing to the Soviet Empire.
At the Yalta Conference, Roosevelt felt morally bound to legitimize Stalin's claims. As the President's confidant, Harry Hopkins, wrote Roosevelt at the conference, "The Russians have given us so much at this conference that I don't think we should let them down." What had Stalin given?
Harry Hopkins was found later to be a soviet spy. http://www.aim.org/media-monitor/the-treachery-of-harry-hopkins/
new evidence that proves that Harry Hopkins, the closest and most influential adviser to President Franklin D. Roosevelt during World War II, was a Soviet agent. Andrew had reported this in a book he had written in 1990 based on information provided by Oleg Gordievsky, a high-level KGB officer who had also been smuggled out of the Soviet Union by British intelligence. Gordievsky reported that Iskhak Ahkmerov, the KGB officer who controlled the illegal Soviet agents in the U.S. during the war, had said that Hopkins was “the most important of all Soviet wartime agents in the United States.”
Hopkins secret meetings with Ahkmerov were not known to anyone until Gordievsky revealed them. They began before Hopkins made a trip to Moscow in July 1941, a month after the Germans invaded the Soviet Union. His insistence that aid be extended to Stalin with no strings attached justifies Ahkmerov’s evaluation of his performance. There is evidence that Hopkins even went so far as to arrange for the shipment of uranium to the Soviet Union to help them develop the atomic bomb. Despite this, Andrew argued that Harry Hopkins was “an unconscious rather than a conscious agent.”
Mitrokhin’s documents showed that Hopkins had warned the Soviet ambassador that the FBI had learned through a bug it had placed in the home of Steve Nelson, a Soviet illegal agent, that Nelson was getting money from the embassy. He met Ahkmerov from time to time, giving him information to send to Moscow and receiving secret messages from Stalin.

With freinds like this, who needs enemies?
In early April 1945, less than two months after the signing of the Yalta agreements, a Yugoslav Communist delegation led by Tito was in Moscow. At a late-night banquet in their honor, Stalin ruminated on the postwar era. In his book, Conversations with Stalin, Milovan Djilas recounts that Stalin at one point explained, "This war is not as in the past; whoever occupies a territory also imposes on it his own social system." And as for the future, Stalin assured his guests, "The war shall soon be over. We shall recover in fifteen or twenty years, and then we'll have another go at it."
Here was the true Stalin, the real "Uncle Joe," as Roosevelt and Churchill affectionately used to call him. And was his own postwar vision limited to eastern Europe? At the Potsdam Conference in July-August 1945, President Truman went up to Stalin and congratulated him on the successes of the Red Army, successes that had brought Soviet power to Berlin in the heart of Europe. Stalin glumly replied, "Czar Alexander reached Paris" during the war against Napoleon in the 19th century. It appears that Stalin had dreams, too.
he didnt get to have another go at it, Beria had him poisoned. actually its a interesting list too.
Joseph Stalin (d. 1953) — Officially cerebral hemorrhage; but, according to Vyacheslav Molotov's memoirs and historians Radzinsky and Antonov-Ovseenko, Stalin was poisoned by Lavrenty Beria (this has been confirmed by records released from russia in the past few weeks!)
Nestor Lakoba (d. 1936), Abkhaz Communist leader, was poisoned by NKVD chef Lavrenti Beria
Abram Slutsky (d.1938), head of Soviet spy service, poisoned with hydrogen cyanide by NKVD
Nikolai Koltsov (d. 1940), famous Russian biologist, was poisoned by secret police NKVD
Nikolay Khokhlov was poisoned by radioactive thallium Germany in 1957 for refusing to work as a KGB assassin
Alexander Valterovich Litvinenko was poisioned by radioactive polonium in the UK in 2006
Yuri Shchekochikhin (d. 2003), Russian investigative journalist, died presumably from poisoning by radioactive thallium
Anna Politkovskaya was poisoned during her flight to Beslan in 2004
Viktor Yushchenko, Ukrainian politician, possibly poisoned with dioxin during the 2004 electoral campaign.
McCain and Bush
its wrong for you to surmise that McCain will be as easy as Bush. Bush's military stint is nothing like McCains, or do you know his story of HIS dealings with freinds of Russias?
Between 1955 and 1960, the North Vietnamese with the assistance of the southern communist Vietcong, tried to take over the government in South Vietnam, and in November 1963 President Diem was overthrown and executed. The following year, the North Vietnamese began a massive drive to conquer the whole country aided by China and Russia.
McCain spent some time at Hoa Loa Prison
Russians were always on the side of black people opressed by white racists and suprematists.

Image of Africa and Africans in mass-media in Russia
Regular attacks on African students in Russia , murdering of African immigrants in Russian capital and big cities makes this presentation internationally important. Rising the level of international awareness to this issue can help to find the solution.
Soviet Union period
Soviet government has ideological interest in getting and educating communist agents. Soviet media create image of poor Africa and discriminated by capitalist world Africans. Soviet Union creates the base of Soviet journalists working in Africa , though informational links are weak, as well as scientific base (the first Institute for African Studies was opened in 1959). Soviet authorities create the image of the flourishing Soviet Union without racism, image of the country of total friendship (in fact, friendship with communists, potential communists or victims of capitalist world).
Russia 's period
Compilation of foreign image of Africa and Africans is on the top. Racist ideology is the best example of it (image of total Black Enemy).
This is a period of double standards or - in other words - absence of any standards and authorities. Image of Africa as an extremely poor continent is created to raise the level of self-estimation [self esteem] of the Russians. Russia is regularly compared with Africa in general (even not African countries!) in the level of economical, social and political development.
Generally it must be mentioned that the image of Africa and Africans in Russia is not well detailed, there are many contradictions in it. Collective mind still dominates over personal experience in contemporary Russia . According to this collective mind that is controlled by the State - Africans (as an image and physically) are used as scape-goats in reducing (redirecting) social aggression and as the only way for showing masculinity by Russian declassified youngsters (by hunting for lonely and weak victims). Image of Africa ( Africa 's selected statistics) is used as low standard comparison to demonstrate Russian better statistics.
i think others disagree with you here too.
