		<description>These so-called questions to Tymoshenko already have the answers included in them just as the questions to Yushchenko were accusations.
So working backwards from the last one:

10. It&#039;s just because Yulia is a woman and it&#039;s well known that Ukranian males are bigots and that includes Yush. Never mind that he has other woman co-workers including the secretary of the NDC. 
9. Baloga is the problem and not Yulia or her shaky coalition and her problem for example of not being able to reward all her followers simultaneously. In any case doesn&#039;t the constitution specifiy no elections within a year. If would be a very convincing ulitimatum. And moreover just what the country needs more elections and another approx 50/50 split or even Yanuk winning. 
8. Yush is a traitor who&#039;s betrayed the revolution and Yulia is its saviour if only Yush and Balogo would spike her all the time. 
7, Everyone agrees that the Vanco contract is corrupt, except for example the American Ambassador who spoke out publically against its unilatiral cancellation. A strong move for a diplomat. 
6. Everyone knows that Yush&#039;s brother&#039;s collecting a coupon from the deal and in any case Yush doesn&#039;t really care about corruption unlike Yulia. Lets just ignore the fact that it&#039;s now become absolutely clear that this mediator was a Russian take it or leave demand.  
5. All comments on the government&#039;s performance were completely unjustified attacks and not, unlike this journalist&#039;s comments, critisicms which turned out to be correct. 
4. Of course I don&#039;t agree. See comment 5 above. These attacks couldn&#039;t go on.
3. Of course Ukraine would be better with a Parliamentary system. The President would make a great ceremonial figure and have more time for bees and children. Again let&#039;s ignore all problems with the functioning of the RADA which is manned by people chosen by god knows what criteria on closed party lists and who represent competing big business interests and almost nothing else. 
2. There are many sources of inflation, very easy to name but inflation has jumped since Yulia became PM just as in her first term of office positive economic growth turned into no growth and even negative growth. First get the economy right. 
1. Because Yush (with all his 8% popularity) and the secretariat supported him. Depite Kuzio&#039;s prediction in EDM that BYUT would win they lost and for such a supposedly brilliant politician the whole move was a complete failure. Yulia also has this habit of naming specific individuals as guilty. In a genuine democracy the PM is not supposed to publically determine who is guilty of violating the law and who is not. That&#039;s the job of the courts and the police. What would be the outcry if for example Bush started declairing named business and policical opponents to be criminals and using political means (eg: voting combinations in the RADA) to get rid of them?

Finally I&#039;m anon because I&#039;m really an anon. My name would be just as anonymous.</description>
