What WWF Would Look Like If Produced By Leonado da Vinci






















A big Tip'O the Hat to thei100 for noticing the classical Renaissance art proportions of this photo, taken from a typical day on the floor of the Ukrainian parliament.

I love the Ukrainian Rada! The most pugilistic deliberative assembly in the world, I'm sure. See this compilation of the Rada's greatest hits, and prepare to be entertained.

There you go TSB! Adding plenty of punch and artistic perspective to the posts. Now if we can just get James to add the appropriate musical
score. I love that lady who jumps right in the middle and starts beating guys with a plastic water bottle. Icould almost picture TRUMP
in there loosing his toupe'. gwb

TSB: It looks like ISIS is doing it's best to disrupt the POTUS vacation schedule by slaughtering Iraqi refugees with US weapons. Wolf Blitzer might parachute in there this weekend to force his hand. gwb

James; TSB: I love the Zavrov humanitarian diplomacy and convoy to E. Ukraine under Red Cross auspices. Kiev is doing everything they can to stop it while US is stone silent. Why don't the US Christians mount a similar effort for northern Iraq? I'd be glad to pony up for some white paint. gwb

TSB: Ukraine President Dissolves Parliament, Announces It On Twitter

My sources say Poroshenko is trying to restore decorum.

GWB: Decorum sounds very good. Maybe he can bring some to the USA?

TSB: I would like to nominate this speech by former Amb.Charles Freeman
for the prestigious TSB Award for Diplomatic Coherence: I'm reading 'Small Wars, Faraway Places'by Michael Burleigh which details the diplomacy around all the wars since WWII. Freeman has all this stuff in mind in making his remarks and it's clear we have 'sluud'a long way as Dizzy Dean used to say. gwb

GWB: Some malign Chas Freeman because he is close to the Saudis, but I always though he makes tons of sense.
