thanks Exedus, there does seem like a high concentration of ruble-fueled comments. Its amazing to me how critically important a minister's grandfather becomes these days and the number of approaches to discredit her.  

There is the, "she learned everything from her Nazi family" approach; the "moderate in crazy times" approach of  "she owes us full disclosure on this". And the sly, "biased mainstream news media must disclose this" approach. 

The important thing is that all of this is being championed by the same folks who championed  "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion". (an epic originating from 2nd Empire France) Who'd a thought we'd miss the boring heavy-handed creations of the Soviet era. We now enjoy Tsarist propaganda and agitation from the original source.  Long live Tsar Vladimir.
