	Coalition wrangling finally draws to an end
		One of the major stumbling blocks was that the conservative Homeland Union could not find ground for compromise with the leftists who were asking for the portfolio of prime minister and several other ministerial posts.
		The conservatives were reluctant from the outset to negotiate with the leftists, who were holding talks on two fronts.
		The leftwing block of the three coalition partners could hold up to 84 out of 141 seats in the country's parliament.

	Leftwing Nutjob \| The Voice of Progressive Podcasting
		The blogosphere was awash in speculation last week after word broke that the junior senator from New York state, Hillary Rodham Clinton, may, in fact, be reconsidering a run for president in 2008, choosing instead to remain in the Senate and replacing Harry Reid in the leadership position.
		But this Leftwing Nutjob believes that the possibility was always there—as it is with a handful of other Democrats—who have chosen to support the war but refused to square that sentiment with the rest of the party.
		The Leftwing Nutjob Podcast and Blog are one man's sardonic and irreverent take on the latest political happenings both in the United States and abroad.

	The Iranian: News & Views
		The clashes erupted during a rally by around 3,000 students to protest the rejection of several leftwing candidates for the legislative by-elections on March 13.
		The Council of the Guardians, a conservative legislative watch-dog, has reportedly rejected several leftwing supporters of khatami in the runup to the by-elections, prompting criticism from left-leaning circles.
		The demonstrators accused the council of trying to block the parliament to "revolutionary candidates," and vowed to continue protests if the authorities failed to reverse their decision.

	Elia Kazan -- leftwing critics won't let go
		It was Dreyfus who maligned Elia Kazan by falsely claiming that his anti-communism "lasted barely as long as it took to testify in front of the House of Un-American Activities Committee." That is a lie, as we shall soon see.
		These are the same leftwing hypocrites, led by the likes of Polonsky, who successfully worked for years to block Kazan's nomination for the lifetime achievement award given each year by the American Film Institute and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association.
		Fortunately the brilliant works of Elia Kazan and Dmytryk will be remembered so long as people value art and genius, and long after their leftwing critics have disappeared into well deserved oblivion.

	Euro2day :: Mexican poll turmoil hits Chiapas state election
		But all that changed when Andrés Manuel López Obrador, the leftwing presidential candidate, last month began contesting the result of the July 2 election in which he narrowly lost to Felipe Calderón, centre-right candidate for the National Action party (PAN).
		On Wednesday, during his second visit to Chiapas in just five days, the charismatic leftwing leader appeared on a stage in Tuxtla's main square and began to work his magic.
		Wrapping his hand around the chubby face of a small girl dressed in white, Mr López Obrador lavished praise on Mr Sabines as he told a packed plaza: ΈVictory for the PAN in Chiapas is morally impossible.

	Portugal for Beginners
		The first portuguese president not to come out of leftwing parties since 1974, Aníbal Cavaco Silva is hardly a newcomer to the brave new world of portuguese politics.
		One of the mentors of PSD (the social-democrat party), between 1985 and 1995 he served as prime-minister, guiding the country through a period of change that saw highways being built with the occasional european funds that corrupt people didn't manage to pocket.
		It's a coalition of small leftwing parties which joined forces a couple of years ago and managed to get two candidates elected to parliament.

	David's Blog - www.frontpagemag.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		The front page of the New York Times today features a story by Jason De Parle about the Federalist Society's mysterious "sway" in the legal community and what this might portend for the Supreme Court if Judge Roberts is confirmed.
		The Federalist Society is principally an intellectual forum where conservatives can discuss with liberals issues that they couldn't discuss in law school venues because the totalitarian intolerance of leftwing law professors who control these schools effectively silenced them by excluding them from its platforms.
		The fact that the Federalist Society is an issue at all is a testament to how the witch-hunt is the essence of leftwing politics, and how successful that politics is. Imagine if conservatives had made Ruth Bader-Ginsburg's leadership role in the ACLU an issue, or her member of the American Bar Association.

	1999 Global Terrorism: Europe Overview
		There were signs of a possible resurgence of leftwing and anarchist terrorism in Italy, where a group claiming to be the Red Brigades took responsibility for the assassination of Italian labor leader Massimo D'Antono in May.
		On 1 September a German court convicted two members of the leftwing terrorist group "Anti-Imperialist Cell" and sentenced them to lengthy jail terms for their ties to a series of bombings in 1995 against several German politicians' residences.
		In addition, two groups of about eight PKK members each turned themselves in to Turkish authorities in October and November as a gesture of goodwill and as a means of testing a new Turkish repentance law.

		MANILA, May 30 (Reuters) - Philippine senators threatened on Tuesday to block an anti-terrorism bill in the upper house of Congress amid political bickering that could derail the law's passage for another year.
		Opponents and allies of President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo in the Senate said they feared the government could use the tough new law to crack down on political enemies after five opposition supporters said they were abducted and tortured by the military.
		Senators said they were also alarmed by the disappearances and murders of nearly 100 leftwing activists and journalists since Arroyo came to power in 2001.

		The 732-member European parliament had been due to vote on the new commission today, but it was clear that a block of leftwing parties, including Socialists, Greens and Communists would vote against the new executive, which was due to take office on Monday.
		Mr Barroso held overnight emergency talks with the leaders of the three largest political factions in Strasbourg, but failed to garner the support he needed.

		A growing number of indigenous leaders are not in agreement with Luis Macas’s candidacy on behalf of CONAIE because they do not understand the reasons for which Pachakutik attempted to divide the leftwing vote.
		According to surveys, Macas would arrive at only 1%, which would mean a major political defeat for Pachakutik and a serious weakening in its negotiating abilities and representation on behalf of indigenous peoples before institutions of the state.

		The obstruction has come from the very administration that the president asserts is operating "within the laws of our country" and cooperating with appropriate investigations.
		The security clearances were blocked by the NSA, which has taken its direction on the spying program from the White House.
		While the termination of this investigation is certainly a serious assault on the viability of our democratic republic, I have to note that at least the press did notice when the investigation was blocked and subsequently abandoned.

		KERBY — A 40-foot log used by protesters to block access to the Mike's Gulch timber salvage sale in a roadless area of the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest Tuesday morning was cut from a nearby botanical area, according to forest officials.
		One irate activist called it a "petty" point, and said the U.S. Forest Service and John West, president of the firm that purchased the roadless sale, had cut countless trees illegally.
		Besides, they are leftwing activists, and everybody knows that for leftwing activists, the ends (their notions of greater good) always justify the means - even if the means are the very sorts of things they are active against.

		I guess that some people are thinking in terms of "they can't delay and block forever"...oh, yes they can.
		Remember, our leftwing friends still haven't gotten over Florida 2000 and they really do believe that President Bush was fraudulently re-elected in 2004.
		Given this, they feel it is their duty to block and delay as much as they possibly can...if all nine Justices were to die tomorrow, the left would have no problem blocking appointments until such time as a properly leftwing Democrat became President to make the appointments.

	GOP Bloggers :: A Small Hope for the Democratic Party
		As Bevan goes on to note, it is far too early to tell how this will play out in the 2008 elections - but I will make my early prediction.
		I think that the left - especially after it loses this November - will simply become more and more extreme; by 2008, they will only accept the most overtly leftwing person as their candidate, and if they don't get him, they'll bolt the Democratic Party.
		On the other hand, if the Democrats are forced to pick an avowedly leftwing nominee, the center/left Democrats will bolt the Party.

		The most powerful Republican in Philadelphia (how's that for an oxymoron) is now caught up in the GOP Block the Vote scandal here, all because of a comment he made to U.S. News & World Report.
		The official in question is Pennsylvania House Speaker John Perzel, who represents a rowhouse neighborhood in Northeast Philly and is considered the most powerful GOP figure in Harrisburg.
		The only "Block the Vote" drive going on in Pennsylvania is the same only one that went on in Florida in 2000- the Democrat machine is trying to disenfranchise overseas military personnel because they are too wise to vote for Demos.

		The Pentagon's Missile Defense Agency has begun working with Israel to help find ways to counter enemy rockets, a much shorter-range threat than the "Star Wars" mission to block ballistic missiles for which is it known, the head of the agency said on Tuesday.
		Senate Democrats were so irrational in their opposition to SDI that they blocked a fourth star for Lieutenant General James Abrahamson simply because he was the director of the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization.
		To those who said that the administration could not guarantee a one hundred percent destruction of Soviet missiles, supporters of SDI responded that no military system in the history of mankind ever had or ever could guarantee one hundred percent efficiency.
