Dirty Politics

Is nothing sacred in political campaigns?

In Warsaw, Poland, a court ordered an opposition party to apologize to the speaker of parliament for making what it said were false claims about him and his dog in a campaign ad, a court spokesman said Thursday, according to the Chicago Tribune.

The opposition party said in a radio ad that Speaker Ludwik Dorn's schnauzer Saba destroyed furniture in government offices he used in his previous post as interior minister.
