Ukraine parliament

[1HappyGuy 45]

Well, once more Ukrainian politicians have shown the world how they have political fights. Since the new government under Viktor Yanukovich the political infighting has been fierce but finally broke into actual blows. It looks like the Party of Regions (Yanokovich's group) just didn't care much for the oppositions tactics and took negotiations to a new low.

My wife is quite concerned that Yanukovich is looking to establish an authoritarian government with all decisions to be done by him or his party. The level of criminal investigations into opposition has really been stepped up a notch since changing presidents.

We are praying that Ukraine as an independent democratic country will survive.

What do you think about their future?

But don't you kinda wish someone would punch Nancy Pelosi in the nose?

Ukraime will survive as an independent democratic country.

We don't feel like the political climate in the country is the same as during the Orange Revolution. Let's hope you are right.

Why? It'd just bounce back. All that plastic on there would stretch and bend but bounce back to it's right spot. There's enough tension from the botoxed forehead and stretched chin jobs to hold it tight. Eye lifts always help the nose as well. Her face is almost as tight as Charlie Sheen's.

Ukraime will survive as an independent democratic country.

Of course it will. We wouldn't have it any other way.

If folks want to play nice on the world stage they have to at least act like democratic societies.

Yet another reason I'd never attempt to live in any FSU country. The rule of law never quite arrives like we all keep hoping it does.

Agreed. The FSU country's most likely never will get their sh*t together. Backwards doesn't even begin to explain how messed up they are.

Russia - Putin

Ukraine - Yanukovych

Belarus - Lukashenko

Now there's three to pick two...

Here's some more typical FSU politics....

Only time will tell...but it doesn't look good atm. If it keeps getting worse I see Western Ukraine making a split. There's no reason why Western Ukrainians should have to go down with the brainwashed zombies of Eastern Ukraine, Russia and Belarus.

Well, it is a tradition!

At least things a still better in Ukraine than Belarus. The photos of the police putting down demonstrators was pretty sad.
