PSP flashback: Ursula, scarf, and tiny Turkish foe,

I just stumbled across
this article in last week's
European Voice about Sparklefave Ursula Plassnik's bid to head some European security agency. I'm thankful for the article because it totally explains what's going on with Ursula and how her old nemesis Turkey (see above) is trying to get in her way, but also because the writer feels fit to include a completely unnecessary, gratuitous reference to the affable Austrian giantess' height:
The OSCE's secretariat is based, conveniently, in Vienna, and the conspicuously tall Plassnik was the frontrunner for the job – ahead by at least a long neck – but now Turkey is attempting to cut her down to size.
Ha, ha! It's funny because she's tall!

That reporter should totally headline the next Correspondents Dinner.
Tall and be-nimbused. That's my girl! <3
What the fucke is uppe with that crazy scarf???
That crazy scarf? Are you kidding me - that is her trademark. ***ahhh*** Ursula, she remains a fave for me!
Ich liebe Ursula.
Why no pictures anywhere these days of our beloved, centre-right statuesqueness? I hope she hasn't had height-reduction surgery,or been overcome by shyness. I miss her.
