A picture of GK appeared in Investors Business Daily,
December 4, 2007 as well. It is very strange to see him
grumble about honor and whatnot, as he never even
apologized for his shameless cheating against Ms.
Polgar -- as caught on videotape.

What a nonsense - its my understanding that JP accepts his explanation to
her.

Putin-bashing and
Chavez-bashing are all the rage in the media these
days, along with China-bashing, but if there is to be
any hint of believability in such articles, they will need
to find a more credible proponent of "democracy" than
Gary Kasparov.

Garry Kasparov has been risking rather more than his opinion on usenet, some
say risking his life. Certainly the US government are concerned about
coercion of votes, threats issued, and a goverment controlled media auditing
the news.

Kasparov may not be the best proponent of democracy in Russia, but he /is/
credible, and in consideration of who else represents the issue, he is the
leader of something now very important to something in the modern world -
not just in Russia, but in the USA too - at least the US President seems to
think so.
