Excerpt -

The speaker of the Ukrainian parliament says the country's pro-Western governing coalition has collapsed. Parliament now has 30 days either to form a new coalition or to call new elections.

The alliance has fallen apart amid infighting between its leaders President Viktor Yushchenko and Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.

So now Tymoshenko has decided to be on Russia’s side? I wonder what Putin is paying her..

A shame, as she is quite “not guilty”.

Give yourself to the Dark Side. It is the only way to save your friends. Yes, your thoughts betray you. Your feelings for them are strong. Especially for...sister. So, you have a twin sister. Your feelings have now betrayed her too. Obi-Wan was wise to hide her from me. Now his failure is complete. If you will not turn to the Dark Side, then perhaps she will.

Looks like the Ukraine is going to have some civil strife. Amazing that it occurs right after Russia's partial invasion of Georgia. Almost seems as if things are progressing according to some type of schedule. Perhaps it is all just happenstance.

If Putin is smart he won't trust her. Yulia Timoshenko is an expert at playing both sides off against each other.

It isn't about Russia or Ukraine; it is always about Yulia.

She is Baba Yaga No. 1

I wonder if any of those brilliant minds at CIA and the State Dept. had the foresight to keep Anatoliy Golitsyn's phone number?

Allow me to retort!

Well she must be guilty on the inside though.

She looks fine that one.

That guy in the back though...eesh.

I guess she’s like the girl in that Seinfeld episode (1 minute guilty, then not). Or just aging.

Of course you can find a bad pic of anyone. Some paper had a real unflattering one of Palin.
