Russia gives US hands-off warning
Agence France-Presse


Russia has warned the US not to pressure it over its nuclear links with Iran as the top US arms control official arrived in Moscow for talks on non- proliferation and an upcoming Russia-US summit.


"I think our American colleagues understand very well that it is pointless to put pressure on us," Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Kislyak said in an interview published on Wednesday in the Vremya Novostei daily.

"We have our points of view. To the extent that they coincide with that of the Americans, we are ready to work and we are working together to prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction," he added. ---

3. Scalia is as pleased as punch about his decision;
Thomas agrees with Scalia.
Rhenquist is wondering how his daughter could have had so many problems in Florida, what with the pretzeldunce's brother being governor an' all.
O'Connor still tries to convince herself that it's much better for a "conservative" to take her place, regardless of qualifications, than to be replaced by a liberal.
And Kennedy is wondering how the @&%$ he could have voted with that throbbing hangover he had.
