Pasko and Kozlovsky in our Sidebar
Filed under:
The latest edition to our sidebar is a republication of a two-part interview of Russian youth opposition leader Oleg Kozlovsky, about whom this blog has written much recently, by heroic Russian journalist Grigori Pasko. The interview comes to the blogosphere through the good offices of Russia blogger Robert Amsterdam, who often publishes Pasko's reporting. This is required reading for all Russia watchers and should be of great interest to anyone focussed on democracy issues. Check it out!
As an aside, I note that, speaking of the blogosphere, Daily Kos Lunatic in Chief Markos Moulitsas can't seem to make up his mind what he thinks about the recent insurrection against his blog by aggrieved Clinton partisans, who are infuriated by his Stalin-like oppression of all those who don't mindlessly support Obama and of his ruthless attacks on his behalf against Clinton. Two days ago he told ABC News: "I think it's great." Yet today on DK he calls it "laughable" and then launches into a seething, venom-filled and oh-so lengthy diatribe explaining why he's right and Clinton is trying to subvert democracy. Seems Marcos sssssspeaks with a bit of a forked tongue, doesn't he? Hard to see it as "laughable" and insignificant, much less something he's happy about, when he needs to go to such great and bitter lengths to attack his foes.
