The Uribe temptation by the Economist
We all know that if Uribe runs again for the Presidency he will be elected by a wide margin

Some of the usual left wing PBH posters are not going to like it if it happens, and will go on about criticizing Uribe, despite the fact that every time they visit (or live in) Colombian they benefit from the same Uribe policies that have made the country much safer

esanch36 says on May 5, 2008, 11:12: I really like Uribe, but i do think he should step down. I just fear the idoits that are lurking in the dark ready to become butt buddies with Chavez once they become president All right, I'll ask: How come it took three seconds to euthanize Eight Belles, but the Womens NBA is starting Year 12??? |
