Second question from the bottom:

===================
PRAVDA.RU: Can you imagine the former chess champion Bobby Fisher as the
leader of an opposition movement in the USA? Please substantiate your
answer.

COLVIN: Bobby Fischer would be pardoned. He deserves an apology for the
way he has been treated by the Bush administration.
===================

"would be pardoned" doesn't really make sense. I think he rather said or
meant to say "should be pardoned". I wish more senators would raise the
issue.

This is really great news, long overdue.

Too bad that even the Executive Board of the United States Chess
Federation refuses to support Fischer.
