warpedskydiver 0 #1 September 13, 2007 Russian news agencies cite the Kremlin as saying that President Vladimir Putin dissolved the government Wednesday. Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov asked the Kremlin to dissolve his government, Russian news agencies reported, with less than three months remaining before parliamentary elections. Fradkov made the decision based on "the approaching major political events in the country and a desire to give the president full freedom in making decisions, including personnel," Fradkov was quoted by ITAR-Tass as saying. A Kremlin spokesman could not immediately comment on the report. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 15 #3 September 13, 2007 Its a bit different then Fox is leading you to believe. Putin is out in a few months and he's lining up the new cabinet for who he is supporting in the election. Same thing happened with Yeltzen in the 2000 election. http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gPIUjKcEm4daVz-71Shxb_ZdIsTQYesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AWL71 0 #6 September 13, 2007 His point is that he has to insult Fox news because they are the only news agency that is tilted to the right. Liberals insult those that disagree with them. Standard Operating Procedure. Liberals get riled by Fox because for the longest time the left had a monoply in the news business. Fox changed that and they hate them for it.The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
