Pravda is insane

Pravda quotes Vladimir Zhirinovsky, leader of the Liberal and Democratic Party of Russia:
"Condoleezza Rice released a coarse anti-Russian statement. This is because she is a single woman who has no children. She loses her reason because of her late single status. Nature takes it all."

"Condoleezza Rice needs a company of soldiers. She needs to be taken to barracks where she would be satisfied. On the other hand, she can hardly be satisfied because of her age."
But, lest this be thought too brutal, Pravda follows up that article with a link to one entitled Condoleezza Rice leads solitary life, but surprises the world with her slim figure and determination. How charming! It's like Mattel's copywriting from the side of an old Barbie box. Apparently:
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon said once that he was unable to conduct negotiations about the regulation of the Middle East conflict in Ms. Rice's presence. The elderly Israeli premier gets confused when his eyes stop on Ms. Rice's slim legs!
How could the same nation produce Pravda and The Brothers Karamazov?

I'm not sure if sentences like "Condoleezza Rice, a black woman, became a member of the white Republican Party" are getting it completely wrong ... or just a little too right.

Zhirinovsky is legendarily insane.
