Last night, during the US presidential debate, John McCain specifically mentioned the feud between Yushchenko and Tymoshenko, and how it was hurting Ukraine.
This asinine bickering has got to stop.
Politics is not about loving politicians - it's about working with them to implements specific goals.
A former US President once said, if you want to be loved in Washington, DC, get a dog.
Tymoshenko is a stupid ass for suggesting that a pre-term presidential election ought to also take place.
The Ukrainian "third way" seems to be - bicker, fight, postpone, don't plan, play games of brinksmanship, and disastrous consequences be damned.
With this kind of circus, it seems to me that government has become irrelevant in Ukraine.
The circus has got to stop.
I watched the debate yesterday and will do a post on it.
Tymoshenko publicly opposes pre-term parliamentary elections and, if unavoidable, seeks to pair them with pre-term presidential elections.
In that regard, her position matches that of the Party of Regions. She’s made stabilnist her rallying call. As I see it, stabilnist means presidency — whatever the cost.
If she wants to make deals with the Party of Regions, she must do so without my vote.
