July 1, 2008 ECrisis would like you to know that the U.S. Department of State has got it all wrong AGAIN when it reports, as it just did about Ecuador, that "Ecuador's chronic instability is a major source of illegal immigration and drugs transiting to the United States." This is pure balderdash and is unbecoming the incompetence and low levels we have come to expect from these Correa-enabling idiots which started under the Adolfo Franco-Karen Harbert reign at US AID when all business was ordered to report one thing but do another. Ecuador's problems are not from instability but from corruption. Ecuador is unstable because it is corrupt. The only cause for Ecuador's on going status as a corrupt place which is a key transit hub for illegal substances and human being trafficking is because Ecuador's governments under Lucio Gutierrez and now Rafael Correa are corrupt.
Pretending to be stable while still being criminal is a fools errand and will get a nation nowhere fast. In other words, instability is no excuse for drug running and narcoterror.
Worse yet, the government of the USA is delusional and dishonest about Ecuador when its own Report states that between $25 to $40 million of U.S. tax dollars will be spent next year in flagrant abuse of U.S. reporting laws and honest expenditures " to strengthen their democratic institutions" in Ecuador. This is the cruelest lie of all and is unbecoming of Tom Shannon's team but does reveal their perfidy which has existed since Roger Noriega and Adolfo Franco's reign of dishonest reporting and program work between 2004-2006 across the U.S. government with regard to Ecuador. As such, the only contractors from the USA permitted to work with US tax dollars inside Ecuador are those who enable/rally around/support/promote and expand the criminal regime of the Cuban socialist-Iran allied Chavista named Rafael Correa, currently spending tens of millions for propaganda to lie some more.
We say this because throwing upwards of $40 million at Ecuador to ostensibly build democracy, as the USA in Ecuador is doing this year and did the year before, is a fools errand and deceptive. It is throwing good money down a rat hole. This wasteful spending on so called democracy builders who want no part of building democracy and will never do anything sustainable to build democracy in Ecuador is exactly like throwing millions at a dead body which has already died of cancer but proclaiming it worthy of millions of dollars in HIV AIDS treatments. Ecuador is not now a democracy. It is a narcostate under a dictator who completed his self coup one year ago and rules with an iron fist to insert his doomed vision of the Cuban pariah statehood, with all the exigencies thereto, onto Ecuador. The only thing to be done about Ecuador, which the US government refuses to do, is to be honest about that woebegone nation. Stating the facts would be novel today even as the State Department country report on same fails itself to report the essential data there. Worse yet, not one US AID contractor reports factually about what they are doing. This is a chronic situation which has reached its nadir today.
While the Andean team at the U.S. Department of State and its overpaid contract writers [ following some Hollywood movie script because they are surely not following the facts on the ground], have not one shred of integrity to even begin to state the facts about Ecuador, we will.
Ecuador does not need the US government's additional enabling of Ecuador's current governmental crime spree nor does it need more goofy US AID contractors from the George Soros democracy-ending tribunals of disgrace, already crawling over Ecuador.
U.S. Department of State, Congressional Budget Justification: Foreign Operations Fiscal Year 2009, 2008
Ecuador Program Overview
U.S. foreign assistance to Ecuador focuses on helping Ecuadorians strengthen their democratic institutions; creating more and better-paying jobs; improving the management of natural resources; and curbing the corrosive impact of the regional drug trade in Ecuador. Ecuador's chronic instability is a major source of illegal immigration and drugs transiting to the United States. Border areas in particular lack the political stability, security, and alternative development necessary for their vulnerable populations to resist the corrupting power of drug smugglers.

Ecuador today is a dead nation. Ecuador wants to tell you that this Fall it will vote to certify its own death sentence in state sponsored suicide writ large: its constituent assembly will farcically present its disastrous new constitution and Ecuadoreans will vote for this. Not one step of this pathway to disaster is honest, transparent, accountable and supportable although shamefully, the USA supports this criminality for reasons only understood in the minds of pro-drugs activists who care nothing for the common good. They call this "helping the poor" when nothing inside a narcostate helps the poor. Ecuador has no honest or meaningful or functional relations with the USA and does not even need an Embassy in Ecuador because Rafael Correa has driven off all reputable U.S. trade and commerce except those making money from consulting of and by the US government and those profiteering from the misery caused by human and narcotrafficking. The USA does have cocktail parties and goofy NGO confabs in Ecuador as it does in Argentina but this is no substitute for real diplomacy and is only for shallow, hollow propaganda as the nation dies. There are some tiny, irrelevant however hopeful very very small businesses who proclaim that Ecuador is wonderful. We are happy for them and hope they can continue to enjoy their businesses which today depends solely on how well any business or person pays the Rafael Correa extortion racket teams and not on free or fair trade. But no sane business is in Ecuador today- they have all departed to lands where rule of law in a democracy exists for it exists not in Ecuador under Correa. And that is a fact that the Andean team at the U.S. Department of State would do well always and everywhere to grasp. While busily seeking promotions for their good work to sustain democracy in the Andes, they forgot to be honest about the vast and dark corruption in Ecuador which today is run by Rafael Correa, Hugo Chavez's DISIP agents and Cuban spies in conspiracy with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's HEZBOLLAH operatives for a non democratic state. The Soros contractors at the OAS, the UN and US AID/US Department of State do not want you to know this and their work pretends that the reality is not real. This is what is known as essential fraud.
We do not suggest that US AID be kicked out of Ecuador but we do insist that the current contractors be removed because their assistance is crafting more ham than good for their incessant enabling of more and more narcostate constitutional demands and abnegation of the truth. PLAN ECUADOR is a farce and anyone who defends it knows well that this is a layered effort to legalize narcoterrorism in the Andes. Notable also is Correa's insistence that unless and until the honest and hard working government of Alvaro Uribe in Colombia is removed- by any means possible- that Ecuador will not restore diplomatic relations with honesty and integrity and wants nothing to do with democracy. In other words, Correa's government reveals itself as standing squarely in the position against democracy, against clean and accountable government and in support of its own narcostate. US AID's multiple players tells us that they will help Rafael Correa legalize all that should never be legalized.
US AID-Ecuador is coordinated through Senators Dodd and Leahy viz Senate money man- appropriations guru Tim Rieser. Senator Dodd wants to be the next U.S. Secretary of State under Barack Hussein Obama. Senator Dodd, like Delahunt of the U.S. House, holds no functional respect for Alvaro Uribe and as such, have poured monies in to strengthening the narcostates of Venezuela and Ecuador under the conceit- the deceit- that this money is building anti corruption and sustainable democracy when Correa and Chavez are doing all they can to destroy integrity and accountability. Dodd knows this but still applauds.
Here is how Dodd is known today for his slimeball ethics: Tuesday, July 01, 2008 
Chris Dodd is also in bed with George Soros, as are all leading U.S. Democrats and all leading Latin Americans of failing nations- failing of their own corruption.
Chris Dodd has worked the agenda to aid and abet the FARC and the Chavez-Correa support thereto. Dodd is in bed with Chavez and Correa.
Chavez and Correa are in bed with the FARC. The FARC today is undergoing a "transformational democracy" transgender sex change from the FARC to Hezbollah. Chavez and Iran are paying for this transmogrification. Correa welcomes these multinational criminals and protects them.
And here is Dodd's buddy- comrade Chavez making bed mates with his pals in the FARC:

What Doddites, Sorosites and Leahy liberation theologists want for Ecuador, calling it Northern Border zone assistance for the poor, is Plan Ecuador which is to re do the FARC zone which disastrously existed by their hands in the mid 1990s and like a bad penny is promoted again inside Ecuador for the FARC to regroup under its newly minted Hezbollah flag of narcoterrorism. Ecuador's Correa and all his Soros do-drugs compadres, also called US AID contractors, want this by any means possible, including lying... a lot.
Today, Barack Hussein Obama is incapable of breaking with Dodd, Leahy, Soros and his neo communist pals at the NATION Magazine, currently co managing news input at well over 1/3 of all USA news today, notably the near bankrupt NBC TV station because most Americans cannot stomach its overt neo communist, pro Obama graft any longer and has turned off the propaganda by the millions. We do not know why General Electric sustains this false so called news except that GE is selling off its real businesses to save GE's new propaganda business and offshore derivatives trading business, as if by promoting the Soros candidate named Obama it will protect its tax free derivatives trading at all costs as long as GE insures that NBC TV sells the USA its tax free status continuation under Obama. This is why Soros backs Obama and now NBC TV-GE too. For this, NBC-GE has been quite willing to pervert its own once independent news in order to satisfy the demands that its offshore, unregulated speculative money schemes continue. In other words, NBC TV now lobbies for and sells propaganda for the betterment of its real agenda: offshore speculators which run General Electric, which is selling all product manufacturing to preserve its propaganda arm to protect its speculators in a dramatic roll of the dice that under Obama, like Clinton, all its hidden money making schemes will be protected by no law, no scrutiny and no taxation. This is not free press and this is nothing but paid propaganda to protect GE's main activity today: hidden speculation.
The government of Ecuador has joined a rag tag group of so called environmentalists and so called Indigenous who have been suing Chevron-Texaco in series after series of expansive lawsuits since 1995. Correa's team seriously believes that with the growing advances of the Soros-US Democrats, they can persuade politically the justice system of the USA to jigger legal findings, ignore the facts that there is no evidence and lobby their lying souls away.
This just in: Ecuador Duel from the Washington Post of July 1, 2008
"Two Washington heavyweights have been brought into the fight over how to pay for the repair of an environmental mess in, of all places, Ecuador.
Democratic lobbyist Ben Barnes has been hired by Kohn Swift & Graf, a Philadelphia law firm that's bankrolling a lawsuit in Ecuador to force Chevron to pay potentially billions of dollars to clean up some oil fields and their environs down there -- a controversy that's been simmering for years.
Barnes said he is hoping to raise the dispute's profile in Congress and elsewhere in Washington. He wants to put heat on the company to acknowledge the contamination and agree to fix it.
Chevron says that the suit is without merit and that the company and its predecessor in Ecuador did the required remediation long ago. It has been using McLarty Associates, headed by former Clinton White House chief of staff Thomas F. "Mack" McLarty III, to help it deal with the government of Ecuador, a spokesman for McLarty said."
Chevron, for its part, should never have been in this mess to begin with which is indicative of its systemic, internal malaise. Chevron-Texaco for the last few years had had the right string but the wrong yo-yos. That is- their legal team in Ecuador and in the USA are a pathetic lot of misguided lawyers. They have a winning case on the merits. But....does anyone seriously think that lobbying will win the day? We are thrilled that "Mack" while serving Bill Clinton finally figured out that Ecuador is in South America and not as he believed....in Africa. Truthfully, Mack and his Soros-US Democrats would do well to express their gratitude to the US Supreme Court, especially Justice Scalia et al for stating the obvious fact that no penalty in the USA shall be in excess of the crime as noted in the EXXON-Valdez case which a similar end run to extort billions from an oil company....just correctly lost on appeal.
Such precedent setting Supreme Court cases should hand Ecuador just cause to abandon its lies and fake claims to Chevron-Texaco. For his part, Mack will be hard pressed to go up against one of his own. Ben Barnes is of course the same who sold out to promote lies about George W. Bush to help the Soros-funded arm of the John Kerry presidential bid as Barnes provided false evidence to Dan Rather which got him in to a lot of trouble for misinforming the public on CBS TV. Rather is out of a job but Barnes is still with the loony tunes of the Soros teams currently crawling all over Ecuador in unhelpful ways, supposedly to benefit Ecuador by turning it into a narcostate. Ben Barnes is a heavyweight for Soros-backed enviros, propagandists and pro Marxist actors. The POST tells us he will lobby the USA to enhance the already very expensive Correa propaganda team.
Today, BLOOMBERG's News notes regarding Correa's ally Evo Morales, "``Up to this point, the provocation has all been rhetorical,'' says Tom Shannon, assistant U.S. secretary of state for the Western Hemisphere. After June 9, ``we realized that we had a problem of confidence with this government [of Bolivia].''
This is not true. Shannon knows, as any with a brain to use and eyes to see, that Bolivia under Morales is a very dishonest and incompetent government over-run by Chavistas and Cuban intelligence operatives. But the inchoate Mr. Shannon has a complete and superb track record of enabling his own staff to show any truth teller from Latin America to the door and ending any USA momentum for any progress except with regard to what Uribe of Colombia has labored against all odds to accomplish with President Bush and US Drug Control director John Walters exacting support to over ride the flawed objections of State Department, Dodd, Soros and Leahy. Secretary Rice, Shannon's boss, who seem to believe that this is the best they can do operating under the old and very corrupt George Soros- Luigi Enaudi Plan of Making the Best the Enemy of the Good if it Helps neo Marxists in South America and in this, like Rice-State Department is inexplicably and profoundly immoral even as like Rice is no doubt seriously attempting to be as a moral woman. Or tries hard to be. She is dearly misguided on Latin issues, relying as is the case on compromised positions. Although US AID welcomed Evo Morales as its new darling socialist, no one on Earth should rely on their due diligence which remains flaccid, incompetent and dishonest at best. Morales is himself incompetent, dishonest and flaccid. He needs to go. But Shannon reveals the essential dishonesty of his colleagues to say such things. "WE" had a problem "of confidence" with Bolivia many years before June 9, 2008 when Evo Morales and Hugo Chavez broke the Vienna Conventions and paid their communist day workers to attack the United States in an unmanly and illegal assault on the U.S. Embassy in La Paz. Evo and Hugo, who are unmanly men like Correa, need to formally apologize, promise this will never happen again and pay for the repairs. We suggest giving Bolivia two days to do this or else canceling all ATPDEA benefits immediately. One cannot love god and mammon both, as they say. BLOOMBERG's goes on to report, " U.S. officials and Bolivian analysts say Morales is now feeding the frenzy against the U.S. as a distraction from his own political troubles: His new constitution has yet to be approved in a nationwide referendum, and he hasn't been able to stop the autonomy votes." This is the understatement of the year. The Morales tactic to create fake instances as diversions is coordinated through the Chavez-Morales-Correa bloc of dishonest and corrupt communists working very hard to deceive. Further noted is this: "Gustavo Guzman, a journalist-turned-diplomat who serves as the Bolivian ambassador to the U.S., says he told Shannon in a meeting at the State Department on June 18 that Bolivia is committed to protecting U.S. diplomats." No word on any verifiable points of the Bolivian "promise" to uphold the Vienna Conventions or anything else that is legitimate or honest. Meanwhile, Morales is booting US AID claiming that US AID hurts Bolivians. Nothing could be further from the truth as US AID has enabled Morales every step of the way. Morales has stupidly tried to kick out one of his biggest supporters for his cartels and foolishness. Even Rafael Correa, who hates the USA and all that is stands for, reveres US AID operatives because....they enable his criminal regime. Even Hugo Chavez -who has booted like Correa almost every American entity, knows well the value of the Marxist enabling foot soldiers from Soros-US AID and leaves their NED actors to help build his cartels by their goofy and implausible activities.
For its part, identical to Bolivia and Venezuela, Ecuador's Correa has utterly no interest in truth telling either. Then again, most Ecuadoreans today are so addicted to dishonesty and manipulative living that they do not either. Ecuador is in bed with Chavez and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and this unholy bigamy has inserted vast rackets of crime where criminality did not always exist.
Instead we ask: what is so very wrong about liberty winning the day? Rather than abandon- throw in the towel as a regional policy- what about winning?
London's new Mayor Johnson writes today in the TELEGRAPH, "We either unleash a full-hearted attack on the nannying, mollycoddling, Harriet Harperson hopelessness of our times, or else too many of our children will grow up fat, unhappy, or violent; we will never win..." Enabling more and more laziness and uselessness never leads to success and liberty loses by ennui, sloth, greed and inertia under such manipulative ethics. Unleash the full hearted attack on manipulative living and seize your future. Stop running away and making excuses. Stand up for your beliefs- if you have any left. Remind yourself what it takes to be inspired.
Can you imagine Mayor Nebot urging folks from Guayaquil to self motivate and defend liberty? Can you imagine Mayor Paco Moncayo suggesting that anyone unleash self reliance, accountability and to turn off their incessant and mind numbing TV shows? The Mayor of London just did that. He is not so unique and he is inspiring.
And if you think that Correa, Chavez and Morales are inspiring, you are reading the wrong columns here. You can unleash a full hearted and honest attack to stop the nanny state called communist Ecuador. In fact- you are called upon by all that you hold dear to do so now.
-Pedro Camargo for ECrisis
June 29, 2008 As Ecuadoreans are told the biggest, most manipulative lie that their central government actually cares about the citizenry, when the citizenry cares nothing for its community nor its fate, we pause today to express our gratitude to the voice of the highest legitimization of the history of Western Civilization called national constitutions under rule of law, Justice Antonin Scalia of the U.S. Supreme Court. You should too. This simple man from Trenton, New Jersey speaks truth to power in defining the essentials of liberty in law. Scalia details how mankind can enjoy the blessings of normative life under law or can self destruct by abandoning the very graces bestowed upon each. Nations with badly written, excessive constitutions never do well. Nations who do not uphold their own constitutional law are irresponsible and deserve all the shame that mankind can heap upon them.
In what started out to be a simple law suit appeal to defend the near-socialist, dysfunctional and exceedingly corrupt District of Colombia local government (currently running about 90% US Democrats with the worst crime record in the U.S. nation and the most eternally failing school system run by corrupt union leaders as well as a local tax office which has defrauded millions of dollars internally with not one prosecution) long standing ban on the right of citizens to own even a simple hand gun [ this long standing ban on any one owning a gun has not reduced violence or murder or crime in DC]. The D.C. government was challenged to prove that its local law was not in abeyance of the U.S. federal laws, notably delineated in the U.S. constitution, often called rights of the citizens, in this case the right to own a gun. As with the U.S. high court, any right under law is always the issue. This case is massively important for its protection of even handed constitutional rights of all men. First of all it provides anyone- anyone with eyes to see and ears to hear- a short history of true human and civil rights- how we got there and how a few brave men stand united yet to defend and protect Western Civilization. It is a free history, courtesy of the U.S. tax payers, called the Heller case and the full text can also be accessed. Here is the shorter version.
Pay attention here: Ecuador's 500++ section constitution is supposedly being re written although Rafael Correa has already told us that this was prepared long ago and that the overpaid fools in Montecristi are simply making us believe that they are drafting a new constitution when most of the Asambleistas are either busy money laundering money for the FARC or themselves or kicking other male members physically in the groin [to put it politely] or yapping away on their cell phones. These are not serious people and most would not know a constitution if it hit them on the head. More importantly, they could care less about the integrity of what they do here and now. Not once- not once- have any Ecuadoreans even thought about bringing in constitutional scholars. And in fact, even Justice Scalia would advise if asked politely. But oh no- Ecuadoreans want us all to believe that their fake communist manifesto is a glorious 500 plus text which will bring new democracy to all Ecuadoreans. What they do here now is not new and it is not democracy.
But Scalia gives us a road map for the higher reaches of mankind under rule of law, which Ecuador neither has nor holds today and does not want to have or hold tomorrow. Ecuadoreans only want a socialist nanny state which tells one and all what to do and how to do while sucking all individual rights out of mankind. This is what Ecuadoreans have been bred for since birth: to be the perfect idiots- manipulative and delusional and exhibiting not one tenant of integrity in their unending pursuit of deceit. Rafael Correa is the perfect president for all Ecuadoreans as he epitomizes this unending misery caused by dishonesty which will soon be voted in by all Ecuadoreans as the mirror of their very souls. The Ecuadorean constitution of Rafael Correa will end all liberties and rap Ecuadoreans in an unending road with No Way Out. This is called communism. It is also called living life exactly as your mother taught you: to be manipulative, to depend on someone else's money and never prepare yourself to stand on your own two feet. You get what you want in Ecuador and what you have has no semblance of the higher social relations indicated by Justice Scalia when he speaks of the guarantees for each man, woman or child - a liberty in law. No indeed- Ecuadoreans are handing themselves no liberties with no real law except the law of the opaque, the draconian uber state and the unending nightmare that no liberties are given by God but parsed out by the Bolivarian state at their whim and if and only if you sucked up to Correa or Chavez in their extortion crime sprees.
If you like living life inside a state Extortion Racket, then you will handily support Correa's new constitution.
If you care one modicum about decency, your Christian values, your children and your true sovereignty, then you should turn off your soap operas and get out of the shopping mall and study the Heller Case for all its Constitutional truths. Know that under Scalia's moral courage, the USA defended its own constitution which is constantly under attack to dumb its essential meaning down to irrelevancy, as seen in the George Soros-backed legal team and NGO backed support for the DC position against the constitution. At least some few men stood up for Western Civilization as the Soros assault on what should be considered sacrosanct continues unabated. The USA did not roll over this time. But Ecuador did not even whimper as the well heeled tanks of disarming democracy's tenants rolled through Quito and set up criminal cartel legalizing constitution blessing shops in the hollow canyons of the Alfaristas and FARC minions called Montecristi. And consider that the new constitution of Ecuador neither has nor holds one shred of any tenant of freedom's truths. But it could.
Ecuadoreans can politely tell these Asambleistas and all their overpaid US AID and George Soros [also called the U.S. Democratic Party] fake democracy actors to resign and go away. You can instead request functional and honorable actors to rebuild normative law and order and democracy in Ecuador- not fake democracy under communism. Clearly the USA has a few still left however much today none are working inside Ecuador.
Ecuadoreans happily have forgotten and today have been taught to devalue - their history. The current circumstance, where all Ecuadoreans have passively acceded over time to giving up the freedoms and liberties hard earned by their progenitors. One of the freedoms that Ecuadoreans held for almost two centuries was an individual right to free speech and open media. That right has been extinguished over the past four years to its current state of undemocratic premature death. This is at variance with America, yet both the USA and Ecuador started from relatively similar places in 1776 and with the birth of the Republic of Ecuador a few decades later. In the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Heller v. District of Columbia, Justice Scalia explained the British history and the history of constitutional democracy.
________________________________________________________
This from Justice Scalia's shortened road through history, seen in the opinion in Heller:
. . . Between the Restoration and the Glorious Revolution, the Stuart Kings Charles II and James II succeeded in using select militias loyal to them to suppress political dissidents, in part by disarming their opponents. Under the auspices of the 1671 Game Act, for example, the Catholic James II had ordered general disarmaments of regions home to his Protestant enemies. These experiences caused Englishmen to be extremely wary of concentrated military forces run by the state and to be jealous of their arms. They accordingly obtained an assurance from William and Mary, in the Declaration of Right (which was codified as the English Bill of Rights), that Protestants would never be disarmed: “That the subjects which are Protestants may have arms for their defense suitable to their conditions and as allowed by law.” This right has long been understood to be the predecessor to our Second Amendment. It was clearly an individual right, having nothing whatever to do with service in a militia. To be sure, it was an individual right not available to the whole population, given that it was restricted to Protestants, and like all written English rights it was held only against the Crown, not Parliament. But it was secured to them as individuals, according to “libertarian political principles,” not as members of a fighting force.
By the time of the founding [i.e., the drafting of the U.S. Constitution in 1789], the right to have arms had become fundamental for English subjects. Blackstone, whose works, we have said, “constituted the preeminent authority on English law for the founding generation,” cited the arms provision of the Bill of Rights as one of the fundamental rights of Englishmen. His description of it cannot possibly be thought to tie it to militia or military service. It was, he said, “the natural right of resistance and selfpreservation,” and “the right of having and using arms for selfpreservation and defence.” Other contemporary authorities concurred. Thus, the right secured in 1689 as a result of the Stuarts’ abuses was by the time of the founding understood to be an individual right protecting against both public and private violence. And, of course, what the Stuarts had tried to do to their political enemies, George III had tried to do to the colonists. In the tumultuous decades of the 1760’s and 1770’s, the Crown began to disarm the inhabitants of the most rebellious areas. That provoked polemical reactions by Americans invoking their rights as Englishmen to keep arms. A New York article of April 1769 said that “[i]t is a natural right which the people have reserved to themselves, confirmed by the Bill of Rights, to keep arms for their own defence.” They understood the right to enable individuals to defend themselves. As the most important early American edition of Blackstone’s Commentaries (by the law professor and former Antifederalist St. George Tucker) made clear in the notes to the description of the arms right, Americans understood the “right of self-preservation” as permitting a citizen to “repe[l] force by force” when “the intervention of society in his behalf, may be too late to prevent an injury.”
There seems to us no doubt, on the basis of both text and history, that the Second Amendment conferred an individual right to keep and bear arms. . . .
Listen up here: today in Ecuador you have no constitution and no legal representation and no free speech and no rights and no protection under law. You are living inside a vacuum created solely by your own laziness, dishonesty and irresponsibility - which is of your own making and it is....repulsive. Thus an Ecuadorean lives under a tyranny of sorts today. Without any recognized Constitution, and with congress marched out at gunpoint over a year ago with Correa and his pals having claimed for itself unlimited sovereignty, there are no permanent rights in Ecuador. Thus today you have in Ecuador a populace that has not only been largely robbed of any civil or human right, but a populace wherein the law abiding among them are prevented from acting under normative law because the law of Correa is to legalize all that should be illegal. Even carrying the innocuous support for anti-corruption laws is illegal under Correa and will get you into big trouble, if not under summary judgment.
And then of course there is the penultimate tyrannical act. In what amounts to a self coup, the current Bolivarian-Iranian government of Ecuador has broken its promise to the people of Ecuador, given but two years ago, to give the people a vote in the decision to expand the sovereignty of Ecuador and increase civil rights but instead Correa and Chavez forced Ecuadoreans to become a province in a socialist and anti-democratic Andean proxy superstate. By this act, and in the even larger sense that this transfer of sovereignty severly and forever more degrades the democratic right of the Ecuadorean people to choose their government, Correa and his Hezbollah team members evinces utter disdain for the liberty of the people of Ecuador. And with that in mind, one more passage from Justice Scalia's decision is relevant:
“This may be considered as the true palladium of liberty . . . . The right to self-defence is the first law of nature: in most governments it has been the study of rulers to confine the right within the narrowest limits possible. Wherever standing armies are kept up, and the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under any colour or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the brink of destruction.” . . .
ECrisis continues to ask: who defends your liberties- the Correa-Chavez-Hezbollah state? Your family? Where do you turn for defense of your freedoms? Who do you look to-Iran? Cuba? Chavez and Correa? We remind: "those who do not remember history are doomed to repeat it."
Here is Venezuela defending the Venezuelan-Ecuadorean-Bolivian bloc of nations, also called a large ship of fools:
Special thanks to Daniel at Salon.com for this superb on the ground photo of what Venezuela really is today: a nation that in 6 years has not once prosecuted legally any single lawbreaker of the Chavez totalitarian state:
When all the clowns in Venezuela want to run the circus; 
Somehow the picture above reflects what is happening in Venezuela much better than any words I can put together. It was taken on Tuesday during the parade in Campo de Carabobo, in celebration of the battle that gave the country its independence.
While we understand that all Ecuadoreans today are seriously embarrassed by their own vapid and lazy excuses for failing to serve to protect and defend their own humanity, we are long past weary of pointing fingers and note that there is plenty of blame to go around. But Ecuadoreans are not even embarrassed in general yet....they are still stuck pretending that each is blameless and that their right to be arrogant, vapid and undereducated is holy. Being stupid by choice is a sin- an evil against one's own upbringing. And it is no longer clever or cute or coy to choose to be stupid or blame anyone else. It is time for the hard work. Ecuadoreans do truly look just like the man pictured above. Only in this time, Ecuadoreans are waving in… welcoming in ... Chavez's arms of destruction which Correa calls Ecuador's sovereign right to self defense. We remind: today no one wants Ecuador.. Like North Korea, Zimbabwe, Sudan, Libya and Iran, these dead zones are far too expensive for anyone to seriously desire any nominal interest in such lazy, selfish lands which are way in debt and unprepared by choice to self govern or self employ.
To be sure, cleaning up Iraq was too expensive and is possibly the last remedial zone which occurred as a proxy line to stop Iran's evil spread in the Middle East because Middle Easterners would not perform their own tasks. So rather than risk watching even more nations succumb to the spread of Iran's wet dream called totalitarianism under law, the West perforced a line in that sand. We hope it holds. Today one half of Latin America hopes that it does not and as such hopes to speed the day of totalitarianism.
Meanwhile, on June 28, 2008, el fascist Rafael Correa took after a small issue- that of the right of all citizens to have and hold due process under law- habeas corpus. This is an essential human right which Rafael Correa denounces. Correa, while freeing all drug dealers and drug runners [inexplicably calling himself anti drugs when nothing could be further from the truth], orders whole hordes of Ecuadoreans scooped up and imprisoned with no rights, no charges, no trials and no way out if they do not bow to his extortionist demands. Tragically not one Ecuadorean lifted one finger to help the numerous scores -thousands- wrongly imprisoned in Correa's hell holes.
Thor Halverson's Human Rights Foundation took umbrage with one provincial leader's imprisonment by Correa and more recently Correa's new tax law which bars equal justice under law. For this, these New Yorkers -read their letters to Correa here- got the brunt of Correa's vast anger yesterday as he denounced truth tellers over and over. And more tragically, not one- not one- Ecuadorean stood up to defend truth tellers. The silence is deafening. Correa's denouncing of freedom is not a whimper -listen to Correa's own words here- from yesterday's radio show. You cannot make this stuff up nor can you any longer cover up the dark crimes against his own people by Correa. You can read about it here from HOY.
You can also decide right now to hang together with people of good intentions, with some general normative learning and brave hearts or you will surely hang alone.
To do this you must destroy your mandate to manipulative living off of someone else's money and stand for functional decency- not the lazy expectations that someone else will do for us what each of us is called by God to do for ourselves to defend the essentials of what God has endowed us with by design which are the essential freedoms. If we do not defend what God has given us, we abandon that very God and his graces. If such lawlessness and godlessness is your goal, you will really like George Soros and the Iranian mullahs. Just check out the homeland called Zimbabwe or Lebanon- it is theirs today. Soon it will be replicated in Ecuador which will look like what you want: Zimbabwe and Lebanon. Sometimes you get what you want by stamping your adolescent feet and screeching. But whenever we give in to demands from spoiled rotten petty tyrants, we never get anything honest, endearing or sustainable. And that is the truth. Because by enabling the dishonest, we sell out the honest. Think about it. And act. You can invite Scalia to help with the "new" constitution. Or you can pretend that liberty under law will magically happen by lying to yourself and others. You can also lie some more and commit even more fraud by claiming that communists such as Sr. Viciano Pastor and his Chavistas have handed you liberty. They have not and will never do so. You have been handed a fraud. What will you do about it?
-Pedro Camargo for ECrisis
June 26, 2008 Rafael Correa's government is one of the most poorly organized and immature, adolescent gaggles of goofballs ever compiled in the history of the Andes and they have seen some whoppers. But these fools take the cake and it is not only embarrassing but is costly. It is not a prize anyone should aspire to. The Correa regime has performed just about every mistake known to analysts in its unending defense of ruining a once functioning nation.
Double digit inflation is today's problem in Ecuador when inflation should be well below 5%. This from the so called brilliant economist Correa [who in fact is not brilliant and remains a Cuban-model acolyte which is of course a ruinous socio-economic zone], who single handedly leads the nation with no advise and consent and nothing meaningful going on at the presidential palace as all efforts are on manhandling the overpaid adolescents at Montecristi to pass over Correa's 400+ item constitution as fast as possible, also with no advise and consent and certainly no adults present. These people are incompetent.
But Ecuadoreans, moving under a manipulative and utterly useless mandate like lemmings rolling off a cliff, demand their right to defend their own stupidity and laziness which they call "sovereignty" and trump up fake claims that everyone legitimate in the world today is out to get them because, as all Ecuadoreans tell us, they have done nothing wrong except... to team up with criminal cartels, Iranean mullahs and destroy the very fabric of society. But you see- it is someone else's fault while no one domestically lifts one finger. Here is Ecuador's Correa stupidly cutting off his nose to spite his face- a hallmark of all Ecuadoreans today who actually despise Alvaro Uribe simply because Uribe tells the truth and is an adult. Ecuadoreans you see cannot stomach common sense and do now want the world to see them for what they are: lazy, dishonest and manipulative while politically attacking anyone else who might be successful:
From Goldman Sachs, June 26, 2008
"Emerging Markets Daily Economic Comment
ECUADOR
Resumption of Low Level Diplomatic Ties with Colombia Postponed
The planned resumption of low level diplomatic ties with Ecuador was halted by the Colombian government after President Correa’s “aggressive” rhetoric against Colombia.
Diplomatic relations had been cut off in the aftermath of the Colombian army raid of a FARC terrorist camp across the border with Ecuador. Ecuador is now raising the possibility that it might invoke economic/trade restrictions against Colombia.
Colombian exports to Ecuador reached just US$317 million during 1Q2008 (up 6.5% yoy), or the equivalent of only 3.7% of total Colombian exports during the period. Colombia ran a US$143million trade surplus with Ecuador during 1Q2008 on exports of US$317nm, and imports of US$174 million.
Hence, potentially retaliatory measures against Colombia would have very little economic impact on the performance of the Colombian economy. However, the impact on the Ecuadorian economy, already dealing with almost double digit inflation, could be more intense. Hence, we do not expect these threats to go from rhetoric into action."
As we have said before: greed and laziness will get you in to trouble and for Ecuador, Correa is in deep trouble...except with his heavily propagandized local citizens who agree with Correa, the Castros and Hugo Chavez that their nation is best served by aligning with Iran and global cartels of crime so deep that even Ecuadoreans refuse to comprehend what they do now. For its part, the OAS and US AID of the USA's State Department brought in the Jimmy Carter Center to organize negotiations between Correa and Uribe over the reality of the Raul Reyes computer materials. This they called a diplomatic crisis. This was no crisis. This remains a situation where two neighboring nations are today at deep odds. One nation is sustaining progress through rule of law and the other has destroyed progress by abandoning rule of law and has succumbed to a lawless land under the Chavez bloc of narconations. It is time to get back the massive contractor monies wasted on the Carter Center. We do not know why the USA tax payers once again waste their money on Fools Errands called diplomacy when any ten year old knows the difference between right and wrong, however much Rafael Correa does not.
This outfit failed and failed miserably because there was no baseline of real time facts under which these consultants operated. It is hopeless to presume that Rafael Correa will magically become a mature adult, performing the duties of his high office in any principled fashion as long as Correa is addicted to living la vida manipulative and lying not only to himself but to the world. For his part, Uribe correctly told the Carter Center money making team that the truth and the facts will not be manipulated. The USA did not need to waste more money on this foolishness and deserves to get its money back.
In order to defend his crimes against Ecuador, Correa will cut off its natural trading partner Colombia because Correa wants everyone to lie about his criminal leadership.
We will not throw Uribe's truth telling under the bus just to satisfy the manipulative demands of Correa. In Ecuador, abandoning truth tellers and law and order has been going on for far too long and as a national ethic is ruinous. It is time for Ecuadoreans to stand up like adults and support accountability and truth telling instead of playing more and more games that manipulation of reality is the primary goal. It is no goal but an end game of ruin.
The real truth is that Ecuador, like Bolivia and Venezuela are out of control, are illegitimate and are criminal cartels hiding behind fake democracy.
This headline of June 25, 2008 applies to Ecuador, too- not just woebegone Bolivia:

Publicado en El Nuevo País (Venezuela)
To all Ecuadoreans, we say: grow up. Your dictator Correa is a criminal and your nation is a joke. These are not nice words but are uttered to insist that sleepwalking through history is your choice but is a ruinous plan. Today Ecuador is a state sponsor of terror and just about any vermin that Correa and Chavez can profit from.
Over and over we are told to reject the facts and wait....wait some more for that magical transformation of Ecuador when the people bypass all boundaries of rational thought and vote on a most pathetic and irresponsible constitution this September. Our Venezuelan friends are also told over and over that they must wait and wait for a magical transformative moment when mysteriously Hugo Chavez will for the first time in 8 years allow local elections to be free and fair and thus democracy and legitimacy blooms in this tawdry land. The Soros-backed National Endowment for Democracy is beavering away to install this stalling tactic.
Democracy, like justice, when delayed is denied. This feature is lost- utterly lost on these minions of middle minded sycophants. But who is counting? Ecuadoreans and Venezuelans, who have absolutely nothing verifiable that any of these ridiculous elections will be clean or fair cheerfully abandon rational thought and agree that they must....wait and wait some more for someone else to magically transform their lives while using someone else's money. But wait! Chavez has just refused hundreds of local candidates their right to be elected, such as Gustavo Cisneros's own Leopoldo Lopez. While we denounce Chavez's illicit shenanigans to prevent legitimate elections, we know too well that Lopez is a self serving Obama-candidate suck up whose brain has been jiggered as he whined a lot at the Whiners Club in Washington DC where all whiners go to whine some more, called the US AID, Soros and OAS Whiners Club- sometimes called the InterAmerican Dialogue.
We say this: if you want to be a hero, be sure to stop whining and start looking like you are not a mouth organ for Gustavo Cisneros who aided and manipulated the sell out of Venezuelan free speech to enable his personal greed viz a viz Hugo Chavez's state media monopolies. The InterAmerican Dialogue never grasps these concepts in their rush to take money for campaigning with and for the Soros machine of whiners currently and desperately trying to put their man in the White House.
Today the WALL STREET JOURNAL features Karl Rove's words regarding the very selfish, whining and manipulative Soros team called the Barack Hussein Obama team running to run the globe, which we reprint here as a cautionary tale:
"...Mr. Obama's actions [can be seen as] someone driven by an all-powerful instinct to look out only for himself. In a contest over who is willing to put principle above personal ambition and self-interest, John McCain, a war hero and a former POW, wins hands down. That may not be the most important issue to voters in electing a president, but it's something they will rightly take into account."
While we are not so confident that American voters will vote for ethical leadership as opposed to the seductive powers of self interest, also called greed, we do know that in Ecuador this is not even a choice any more. One and all are instructed from birth today to place self interest, greed and personal ambition above all else. To be sure, Ecuadoreans look pathetic and are unwelcome at any table because in all this, Ecuadoreans are irresponsible and supportive of criminals. Self delusionally, Ecuadoreans call this their "Sovereign Right" to lie, steal, cheer and manipulate. While they get away with this debased socio economic scam at home, on the global stage it does not work and as yet, the world sees Ecuadoreans for what they are. And what they are today is looking like vapid Lebanese who will not even lift one finger as the FARC-Hezbollah criminals over run their banks, their businesses, their churches and schools for enshrining a fake replica of Cuba's glories which is of course today called the Bolivarian bloc of Hezbollah. Selfishness, even called "helping the poor" when it has no basis in reality, gets you into trouble.
Rove further notes, "Such arrogance – even self-centeredness – have featured often in the Obama campaign." This is uttered with derision we are sure. But for Ecuadoreans today such words are praiseworthy. Just ask your family...one and all insist that arrogance and selfishness is the only way to live life. We disagree. It is not nice to lie to the public: "...Obama, in his first national TV ad rolled out Friday, claims credit for having `extended health care for wounded troops,' citing the 2008 defense authorization. That bill passed 91-3 – but Mr. Obama was one of only six senators who didn't show up to vote. This brazen claim underscores the candidate's thin résumé and, again, his chutzpah." Barack Hussein Obama will be elected U. S. president if Americans act like Venezuelans and Ecuadoreans and lie to themselves that we are all best served by selfishness, greed and political expediency while living off of someone else's money. But wait! you say- that means he is one of "us." Like Correa who is today everyman, woman and child in Ecuador brainlessly rejecting common sense and their own jobs and health care, Obama is indeed We the People when We the People are lazy, arrogant and chose to live off of someone else's money. If this is what you want, this is what you may well get. But know this: it rejects the entire teachings of two thousand years of Western Civilization which never ever prospered because man was lazy or arrogant or selfish, also called criminal cartels hiding behind neo socialism. This reality is born out if and only if one asks the essential question: what has any Ecuadorean contributed for the last 15 years to anything? Scientific discoveries? Medical advances? Foreign leadership? Truth telling? Quality of Life? No indeed. the only thing that Ecuador has done is the last 15 years is convert its once vibrant nation in to a replica of Lebanon today, complete with all its non values, non education, non productivity and reprehensibly selfish living arrangements where one and all live large off someone else's money, insisting that this is their due course in life simply because the fools running Opus Dei told them so. In fact, the real reason this mindset of vacuousness which always leads to criminality is because.....folks can get away with it and are never held accountable. EL UNIVERSAL in Caracas this week reports that kidnapping and murder is at an all time high in Venezuela which is today statistically, like Ecuador, a lawless land with no law and order, " the reasons why Venezuela imported the [murder for hire with impunity] method from Colombia and Mexico include increasing impunity, distrust in the police and the judiciary and the growing possibility of finding hired assassins." That is to say....crime escalates because criminals get away with it.
This week, Senator John McCain noted in a radio interview, “I think that he [Chavez] is a threat to America’s security in the region. He’s worked very closely with Castro. There is significant evidence in the FARC computer files that show he was supporting FARC in a lot of ways…." What is it about these words that you and Rafael Correa disagree with precisely? If Chavez is a threat to the USA, it is a guaranteed certainty that Chavez's mere weapons, materiel and political take over of Ecuador's government is the defining gift to losers everywhere from Rafael Correa who cares nothing about honest sovereignty and cares very very much about making lots of excuses about his own criminality. Why do Ecuadoreans continue to sell out their own nation? What is it about this that you do not understand, or are you still lost in prevaricating and manipulating?
And just because Ecuadoreans actually want to accept whole cloth Correa-Iran-Chavez state propaganda and are so lazy that they will not even self educate, Ecuadoreans today hate Colombia because they believe that Interpol lied to them and FARC died innocently. Interpol has had it with these low level idiots called Ecuadoreans and has issued another Formal Statement denouncing Ecuador's lies. We say: time for the shameless Ecuadoreans to crawl out from their hiding places inside their sainted fortress condos and canyons and stand united for the truth. Or you will, like your schools, your communist comrades and your criminal cartel cousins... stand alone in criminal disgrace and ruin. If this be the end of manipulative living, do please hurry up. We are tired of spoon feeding babies the core facts which have been in front of you all along, only you chose to watch soap operas or children's TV programs and pretend that ignorance is bliss. That is not bliss- it is folly. It is folly to support the Correa-Chavez Plan for Manipulative Living. Stand up like men. Or stand alone with Zimbabwe, Libya, Iran and Syria.
Their life expectancy is well below 37 years on average. Continue your ruinous life on the stupid and be stupid.
INTERPOL media release
25 June 2008
"At the end of its two-day meeting from 24-25 June, 2008 at the INTERPOL General Secretariat Headquarters in Lyon, France, INTERPOL’s Executive Committee issued the following statement:
Executive Committee unanimously affirms INTERPOL’s report on seized FARC computers and highlights its long history of impartiality
LYON, France - INTERPOL’s singular capacity to provide independent, expert law enforcement assistance in international investigations is being increasingly recognised and called into action by the United Nations, other international bodies and our member countries throughout the world.
For the first time, in 2005, the United Nations Security Council unanimously adopted a resolution that specifically mentioned areas in which INTERPOL could play a vital role in the global anti-terrorism effort. UN international criminal tribunals have turned to INTERPOL for help in locating and arresting fugitives wanted for war crimes and crimes against humanity. INTERPOL experts have also been enlisted to assist independent commissions set up by the UN to investigate the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri and alleged corruption related to the UN’s oil-for-food programme.
The G8 Justice and Interior Ministers, at their meeting from 11-13 June 2008 in Tokyo, highlighted INTERPOL’s enhanced ability to provide its member countries with the tools necessary to fight serious transnational crime in the 21st century. Russia, in particular, spoke in favor of many of the positive developments benefiting all INTERPOL member countries under Secretary General Ronald K. Noble’s leadership. Similarly, for its security preparations for the Olympics, China has repeatedly referred to the significant role that INTERPOL has played and will play in helping it to host a safe and secure 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics.
INTERPOL has maintained its independence at various times recently when taking decisions or providing technical expertise in matters that invited partisan political criticism. When INTERPOL insisted that all of our member countries, including those subject to UN and other sanctions such as Cuba, Iran, Libya and Syria, be equipped with the same state-of-the-art and secure police communications system, some countries criticised us. When INTERPOL honoured a democratically taken decision by our European member countries to hold our regional conference in Belarus, it did so despite the forced boycott of that meeting by police from European Union member countries and strong criticism by the United States. INTERPOL and its member countries supported Israel’s desire to relocate from the Asian region to the European region because of its closer law enforcement ties to that region.
As members of INTERPOL’s Executive Committee elected to represent INTERPOL’s four working regions and 186 member countries, we recognise that periodically there are issues that divide our member countries. We also recognise that those divisions cannot and will not be allowed to cloud the integrity, impartiality or transparency of INTERPOL’s assistance to its member countries.
Unfortunately, there currently exists such a situation among some of our South American member countries related to the seizure of FARC computers and hardware by Colombia on 1 March 2008 and INTERPOL’s subsequent computer forensic examination and comprehensive report. INTERPOL’s report found that there had been no alteration or manipulation of any of the data contained in the user files of those computer exhibits following their seizure by Colombian authorities.
In our oversight role concerning the activities of INTERPOL’s General Secretariat, we have had an opportunity to review INTERPOL’s Forensic Report on FARC computers and hardware seized by Colombia, and we have received a detailed briefing on INTERPOL’s work that led to the publication of this report. Based on careful consideration of all relevant information, we endorse INTERPOL’s report and its findings in their entirety.
INTERPOL’s work in this matter was completely consistent with its Constitution, rules and regulations. Politics played no role whatsoever in INTERPOL’s determination that the eight computer exhibits seized by Colombia came from a FARC camp and had belonged to Raúl Reyes, and that the user files contained therein were not altered, modified or tampered with by Colombian authorities.
We thank the Organization of American States for its co-operation and appreciate OAS Secretary General José Miguel Insulza’s endorsement of INTERPOL’s findings in their entirety, as well as the comments of the European Union’s High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy, Javier Solana, who called INTERPOL’s report “good news.”
We also commend INTERPOL’s Secretary General, the General Secretariat staff and the independent computer forensic experts who conducted the examination for the thoroughness and impartiality of their work. We find very unfortunate the criticisms and personal attacks against INTERPOL made by Ecuadorian and Venezuelan government officials."
-Pedro Camargo for ECrisis
June 24, 2008 Rafael Correa's team is dropping and canceling public promises like dropping caplets of water from the top of Pichincha, abandoning public promises, transparency and legitimacy as fast as they can. Then again, it seems that all neo socialists are abandoning promises made to the public in favor of secrecy and opacity.
Here is GOLDMAN SACHS Emerging Market Report on Ecuador, 6-24-08:
"ECUADOR
Constituent Assembly Could Extend Its Sessions Again
After the two-month extension of the initial six-month period granted by law, the Constituent Assembly is now in a rush to finalize the new Constitution by the July 29 deadline.
However, progress in drafting the new Constitution has been extremely slow and Assembly President Alberto Acosta (a member of President Correa’s Alianza Pais movement) is now openly asking to extend the work of the Assembly beyond the July 29 deadline established in the popular referendum that validated the creation of a new Constituent Assembly. Of the expected 522 articles the new Constitution will include, only 57 have been already approved.
Since this is a “full power” Assembly, its members could possibly vote to extend its own duration, even though the referendum only envisioned an Assembly working for six months, maximum eight months.
Mr. Acosta believes another extension would allow for a deeper debate and a better Constitution.
The popularity of the Assembly has declined very substantially since it was created, as lawmakers spent an inordinately large amount of time discussing and debating issues that were not related to the new Constitution and that on some counts the electorate saw as frivolous.
Constituent Assembly President Alberto Acosta Resigns
In an unexpected development, the President of the Constituent Assembly, Alberto Acosta, resigned.
Comment: The local press speculates the move was due to open disagreements with President Correa regarding the content of the new constitution the Constituent Assembly has been drafting. In addition, the pro-government Alianza Pais and the executive do not seem very keen on extending the working of the Assembly beyond the end-July deadline as proposed by Mr. Acosta.
Mr. Acosta, a radical environmentalist, has clashed with the executive on several instances, particularly over the policies aimed toward the exploration of natural resources. President Correa wants to expedite the work of the Assembly as the popularity of his government continues to decline, while Mr. Acosta defends the need to discuss thoroughly the new Constitution articles even if that means delaying the work of the Assembly.
The dissent of Mr. Acosta should increase the political challenge faced by President Correa to approve the new Constitution in a national referendum late this year."
As our readers know, ECrisis has stated that no one knows what is in Sr. Viciano Pastor's authored Ecuadorean constitution- no one that is except the Asambleistas in Montecristi, Rafael Correa per se, well known hard Red Marta Heidegger and her Chavez funded communist constitution writing business out of Caracas which coordinates EURO Reds like Pastor of Spain for enshrining the legitimization of all that should never be legitimized which has the full faith and warranty of the Soros-laced NGO vultures from the OAS and US AID for socialism cohabiting foolish Ecuador today, and of course Rafael Correa and his entire team called his cabinet of Chavistas.
Thereto, party planning Linda Jewell knows where the language is and really needs to share her communist manifesto constitution language from Correa's team with her real bosses- those who pay her salary. Even Rafael Correa -el presidente- has said that the constitution was written long ago.
And this is so. But Correa's teen age anarchists on a binge and over paid Asambleistas holed up in Montecristi, without the common sense god gave a dog and operating with the collective wisdom of 14 year olds and the collective IQ of about the same number 14, are having fun protecting the heraldic rights, as they see it, to scam more money from Ecuadoreans and run more FARC monies through Banco de Pichincha while Rafael Correa makes even more dirty and illegal deals with Iran and its proxy named Hugo Chavez. In fact, Ecuador is today a proxy state for Hezbollah-Iran viz Hugo Chavez and Rafael Correa. All Ecuadorean money launderers, pretending to be Lebanese but in fact Hezbollah actors, are deeply involved in this scam.
Drafting a 522 article Constitution in Montecristi is a farce. It has always been a farce- a huge public lie perpetrated by liars. The Asambleistas barely read and write anyway and could care less about anything remotely resembling functional constitutional language. This teen age rabble has not once- not ever- convened any who have legitimate constitutional law experience. Ecuadoreans pretend that no one understands them and no one likes them [ which today is true because most Ecuadoreans are manipulative children who whine and screech to get their way while refusing to grow up and act responsibly], and thus no constitutional scholar is ever welcome to look under the bed of fools in Montecristi. If these Asambleistas had nothing to hide, they would welcome global scholars but instead they labor under the lie that these idiots who never did an honest day of work anyway are competent to rehash a whole new constitution when not one has a clue what they are doing except destroying Ecuador for the greater glory of Rafael Correa's criminal incompetence and Hugo Chavez's wanderlust.
Ecuadoreans call this their "sovereign right." We call it irresponsible and dishonest.
Essential to this so called constitution is the reminder that the best constitutions fit neatly on a few pages- not the hundreds and hundreds of pages currently seen in the neo socialist EU so called constitution and the Chavez-Correa-Morales meanderings which intentionally are liberty stripping. But Rafael Correa kicked out all Ecuadorean justice and constitutional law and suspended habeas corpus for 18 months now to insert his new law of the land which grants Correa legitimacy for what he already has illegitimately seized: full powers in an undemocratic state where nothing is accountable and nothing is honest. Ecuadoreans like Correa because he is manipulative, adolescent and dishonest because it makes them feel right at home. We call this disgusting and reprehensible.
Today, Sr. Fernando Cordero [himself formally known for years as a well known Marxist from Cuenca and Correa foot soldier] as VP of the FARC legalizing Asambleistas in Montecristi tells us that he is "confused" by Acosta's departure but hastily adds that he will move up as president of the Assembly. What he should know is that he and the entire unconstitutional Correa team and all the kangaroo Asambleistas belong in jail for illegally doing what they are doing. Cordero and Acosta are interchangeable as agents of Change that Ecuadoreans Will Soon See as the Folly of Their blind Faith in the Changes of Communism Hitting them on the Head. Pulling Acosta is meaningless. His resignation is meaningless.
Comes now Barack Hussein Obama to tell us that he has pulled his new Seal of the United States which we reported on the other day. Seems his abuse of the Seal is not unlike intellectual property theft and could have handed him a cease and desist order from the US government. But like Rafael Correa's promises, Obama's promises mean very little too. Obama has not promised to clean up or remove his commitments to undoing the essentials of the USA- he has simply promised to not be honest about what he stands for. Correa has not cleaned up his commitments to the Castros, to Chavez, to the FARC and Iran's dirty money....he has just hidden this some more. Acting unaccountably with other people's money and being dishonest is the hallmark of all neo socialists today.
You can easily click here and access Obama's computer tools, mostly showing him appearing in a cloud like Messiah cometh radiance intended for pure propaganda even as Obama pronounces,
Do note that the Yellow Brick road to Obama-ville, which is really and truly the Road to Sorosville because he and his ilk literally own the Obama agenda, is not yellow....but red even as Obama is shrouded with the cloud like ascendancy of his own persona asking us all to believe in each man's ability to change.
We remind that God alone endowed every man with certain inalienable rights and that change, as described by the Old and New Testaments is the one and only thing that mankind can depend upon except the true constants of the love of God for each [ and of course death and taxes.] God alone grants each man the capacity to grow and change. Barack Hussein Obama is a false prophet to ask us to believe in our ability to bring about "change in Washington." He asks us to "believe" and sets about to deceive. We say this because at least the Biblical texts set out knowledge and a road map. Barack Hussein Obama does not: his entire career is hoisted on the request to believe while never providing accountability and knowledge. This is a cult like deception at its most evil.
Currently Obama has crafted a "National Catholic Advisory Council" of his own handpicked U.S. Democrats whose sole and defining cause juste for serving this dishonest and shameful "Council" is their total support for federal funding of abortion upon demand. These so called Catholics look identical to the state party apparatchiks in Castro's Cuba called "church leaders" and Party leaders who tacitly approve all communist state abortions on demand, state suicide, and free transgender sex operations. While most normative Catholics tell a different tale regarding the sacredness of life which begins at conception for it does, these moral relativists want to pretend that all this can be ignored and manipulated so that the sanctity of choice over life wins out over the sanctity of life. Typically this gaggle of moral relativists also enthuses about federal funding for euthanasia, for legalizing narcotics, has indeed co funded off shore speculator and Chavez's fake, pre-rigged voting machines called SMARTMATICS [currently in a patchwork operational stance and never fully trashed as appropriate because Obama's political juggernaut-called the Chicago political machine did the non-bid sight-unseen buying and the installing of the Chavez voter integrity-dooming voting machines plus did fly in to Illinois under cover of night scores of illegal Chavistas to actually manage the Smartmatics, claiming that North Americans do not know computers....errrr] plus the virtues of dishonesty in general while fully backing the overpaid Politics of Hatred in the USA. Abortion, euthanasia and Hatred is the hallmark of these Obama Catholics who also turned a massive blind eye as their preferred Catholics abused privilege and acted illegally in the largest pedophile-homosexual job training scam in recent history, called pedophile Catholic priests who deserve no sympathy whatsoever.
If you believe that Obama's National Catholic Advisory Council in any way contains the spirit of the Church today, you are deeply misled for these are nothing but a dishonest political activist gaggle pretending saintliness or FAITH! for personal greed and political power.


And if you like the red globe rising, and of course the Cuban-Chavez propagandists tell us it is glorious, then you will really like Obama's symbolic effronteries to mankind's greatest gifts of grace, also called the rise of Western Civilization which of course is not part of the Soros-funded Red World Rising. Obama asks us to believe...in his deceitful neo socialism. God gifts mankind with the power to make choices and hold faith. But it is a true deceptive evil to "ask" men to use what God has given and what God has detailed instead for what Obama has NOT detailed. God reveals his plan for mankind....Obama does not. It is a huge distinction between real religiosity and the fake cult of political messiahs. But Obama dropped his illicit abuse of the Seal of the United States but has not once explained why he feels as he does that all legitimacies as known under law in the USA must be done away with for the expediencies of one world/one globe....one obviously red globe...under the Soros plan of unification of the statist minions called serfs as led by offshore speculators and policy wonks on their payrolls. This is not honest and it is not helpful. It is moral fascism.
Currently, one of Soros's babies called MOVEON.org is running TV ads in the USA that depict a well heeled mother informing the viewers that John McCain cannot have her new baby, her son....not for the US military to protect and defend liberty, including even Soros's right to free speech which he intentionally unsexes. But these liars at MoveOn forget that the USA has a volunteer army and that it is an honor to serve to protect the virtues of the USA- not a shame. But the Obama campaign cannot wait to cut the US defense budget by half to double the dishonest fighting power of the Soros front line actors from the anti USA socialists of US AID-the U.S. Department of State, as Obama has detailed.
The New York Times on June 23, 2008 noted correctly of the deceit by the Obama campaign team's soul sister Soros group MoveOn.org: "The MoveOn ad is unapologetic in its selfishness, and barely disguised in its disdain for those who have chosen to serve — and its contempt for those parents who might be proud of sons and daughters who are serving. The ad boldly embraces a vision of a selfish and infantilized America, suggesting that military service and sacrifice are unnecessary and deplorable relics of the past. And the sole responsibility of others. "
This then is the essential of the deceptively dishonest Chavez-Correa-Obama CHANGE: selfishness, manipulation, deceit, self promoting greed and laziness which never ever elevates the common good nor once serves charitably or honorably with accountability. It is not a bridge too far to request that this juggernaut of self loathing take its wheels off. None of us need demand the RIGHT to Selfishness and Manipulative Living. While Ecuador's Opus Dei may inform us all that this is just great, we know better. We know this because living selfishly was never honest.
Yesterday, the WALL STREET JOURNAL ran a superb piece on the governmental deceptions of Argentina which laid low an entire nation, once proud and successful while today, in just a few short years, a shocking vision of Sorosville. The Kirchners have followed the Red Brick Road and their OZ is terrible but not wise nor great.
Obama, like Correa, Morales, Ortega, Chavez and the Kirchners enshrine "...ballooning entitlements, class warfare, hostility toward producers, capital and private property, protectionism and subsidized central-planning..." These rule of law and democracy ending tactics "...imposed price controls, raised export taxes, increased populist subsidies, abrogated contracts, stiffed creditors, ended central-bank independence and even manipulated inflation statistics. The private sector and profits were demonized and the press was harassed."

From Breadbasket to Basket Case
June 23, 2008; Page A15
As the presidential campaign drones on, Barack Obama and the Democrats are fleshing out the promise of "change" with some specific, big-government policy proposals. Many are familiar, perhaps because they already have been tried – in Argentina.
That country has gone from South American breadbasket to world-class basket case. For the long version of how it happened and why Americans might not want to try it, hop on a flight to Buenos Aires. Here's a condensed version:
Although the winding down of Argentina to the status of international deadbeat began a century ago, the latest chapter is instructive. In March, President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner seized on rising soybean prices to slap "a windfall tax" on soy exports. Farmers refused to pay, the president wouldn't budge, and a deadlock ensued.
Much of the rest of the country joined sides with the growers. But the uprising is no longer a tax revolt. It has become a rebellion against unfettered executive reach – or, in the view of the opposition, Mrs. Kirchner's authoritarianism. A week ago thousands of Argentines poured into the streets of cities around the country, banging pots and pans to express their dissatisfaction with their president's heavy-handed ways. It was the largest public outcry since the economic crisis in 2001.
Mrs. Kirchner, whose approval rating is down to 20%, responded to the protests in a harshly worded speech on Tuesday. She warned that "the country cannot be governed by casserole dishes, bullhorns and roadblocks." Easy to say now. But it was saucepans in the streets that led to the collapse of the government of President Fernando de la Rua in 2001. Mrs. Kirchner didn't seem to mind that overthrow of democracy, perhaps because her Peronist husband Néstor Kirchner was subsequently elected president.
Nor did Mrs. Kirchner cry foul when her husband used "emergency powers," delegated to him by the Peronist-controlled Congress, to rule by decree for five years. There was no intervention that Mr. Kirchner considered out of bounds. It was, after all, "a crisis." He imposed price controls, raised export taxes, increased populist subsidies, abrogated contracts, stiffed creditors, ended central-bank independence and even manipulated inflation statistics. The private sector and profits were demonized and the press was harassed.
The repression worked well enough to get his wife elected in October, but now the wheels are coming off again. Mrs. Kirchner's recent verbal defense of her beloved "democracy" is hard to square with the fact that she is following in the footsteps of her husband, who had no respect for institutional checks or balances.
This gets us to the root of the problem, which developed long before the Kirchners' abuses of market and legal principles. The constitution once held limited government and private property to be among the highest ideals of the land. But in the 1920s these protections, which had made the country a magnet for immigrants and the seventh-largest economy in the world, began to erode.
An early example of this assault on liberty was when Congress imposed a rent freeze to deal with a housing shortage after World War I. This only exacerbated the problem, and in 1922 a politicized Supreme Court widened state powers to allow the regulation of rents. That decision put property-rights protection on a slippery slope. A decade later the Court gave the legislature the power to regulate interest rates.
The interventions didn't end there, and as state control of the economy expanded and the nation grew poorer, the country could not recover its footing. Economic populism and labor militancy took hold; protectionism blossomed and Argentina became a welfare state. Meanwhile, the informal economy swelled under the high cost of legality.
Fiscal crises have been recurring. According to a paper recently released by researchers at the Buenos Aires business school Eseade, external debt as a percentage of GDP has now climbed to 56% compared to 54% in 2001. If you include the unpaid debt to bondholders, the number is 67%. More than a few analysts are worried that should the economy slow, the government may tap Central Bank reserves, sparking a run against the peso or, fearing that, choose default, for the second time in a decade, as its escape hatch.
Will that mean an end to ballooning entitlements, class warfare, hostility toward producers, capital and private property, protectionism and subsidized central-planning? Unlikely.
Americans reading that laundry list may note that it sounds a lot like the mindset of the left wing that will dominate the Democratic Party's convention and choose Barack Obama as its candidate in August. From nationalized health care and government-owned refineries to punishing taxes on the rich, Argentina has been there, done that. There are good reasons to find the resemblance disturbing."

Pay attention here: the irrefutable facts about what works and what does not work for growing and sustaining nations are on the table although we are positive that the welter of Soros-backed so called interest groups, also called by David Axelrod as his own special AstroTurffed Obama propagandizing minions for political attack will make grave efforts to accept the truisms about what brought Argentina low but will deny the very recipe of their cult leader named Obama. Argentina is a dead beat nation which is a dead zone now, not just because of "nationalized health care and government-owned refineries to punishing taxes on the rich" but because its leaders manipulated an already manipulating public....right in to disaster. The functional parallels are eerie and the analysis is apt. Michelle Obama as Cristina Kirchner is not unthinkable however appalling on the merits.
Follow the Red Brick Road as you chose but know what you chose and why....even as you follow the Reds right off the cliff of insanity.
And if you do not know what this is all about, then stop supporting it. As the Irish said correctly: If You Don't Know, You Must Vote No." And that is so.

June 22, 2008 Yes indeed. Rafael Correa was bought for cheap by the FARC and Chavez. Only a cool couple of million, specifically noted as $300,000 from the FARC plus on going protection racket monies for the Ecuadorean military and rashers of foot soldiers from Cuba, Chavez's DISIP and the Soros paper pushers called political propagandists to legitimize all that should never be legitimized fund Rafael Correa of Ecuador. In Peru, Soros slipped Toledo a cool one million- all to make Peter Romero viz Madeline Albright very very happy. Soros backs Chile's Jose Miguel Insulza as its next neo socialist as he retained Insulza's mentor and former president Lagos.
And in the USA, the day that Soros picked Obama and threw his long long time friends the Clintons, complete with his former lobbyist in main and business partner Terry McAuliffe, under the bus in favor of Barack Hussein Obama, we knew not only that the Clintons were not going to succeed at anything but we also saw a stark lesson in how greed and power hungry actors have and hold no loyalty except to themselves. Like Soros's non loyalty to the Clintons, we are also aware that while today Soros is totally devoted to Obama, who in turn has hired over 1000 Soros affiliates while vowing a massive job corps hiring plan for all Soros affiliates called the doubling of the US State Department at the expense of the Pentagon and national security,, it is probable that Obama will spend about one half a billion dollars to gain his bed inside the White House, which also means that he will never have to work again for a living once gained, not that he has accomplished much to date except two massive give aways to his wife's clients and his new clients- the Soros cabal at the UN, vowing USA/international taxes to fund them even more.
To help present his new legitimacy and the new parallel "new Democracy" of Obama, Barack Hussein Obama has just purchased a very expensive rip off of the Great Seal of the United States to sooth any who doubt his neo socialist take over of the world. Si se Puede-YES YOU CAN is its name and socialism for the masses is its game. Like a counterfeit seal of state, Obama and his Soros mission possible are selling fake freedom for the few- his few while pretending great care for the "poor" under neo socialism for the poor while unfettered greed of the operatives make off like bandits having abandoned all else except greed.
From the Los Angeles Times, Barack Obama gets his own nifty Great Seal; all he needs now is votes

Reality, however, is quit different. Here are the real seals:

In 1782, the USA adopted its still in use Great Seal of State. Its Department of State still uses this to manifest all USA standing before the law, before the globe and before man. In God We Trust is a key wording known to all Americans. So too is Annuit Coeptis- literally divine providence for the ages- or God's grace for all or E Pluribus Unum- unity from the many or as some take it, united we stand. Also inscribed on the Great Seal are the Latin words Novus Ordo Seclorum which means a new order for the ages. Any Ecuadorean can freely, with the accent on free, study these representations of the USA because the Clinton team did not alter the one dollar bill of the USA and it still carries the Great Seal on the back of that bill while the other paper currencies are bereft of much of any serious symbolism in their rather unholy New Age art work. Nonetheless, you can read about the Great Seal here and the Official 1782 Description of the Great Seal.
What we have here is an effort by the Barack Hussein Obama election team to prepare Americans to support his presidency. Obviously he is using a bastardized symbolic revision of the Great Seal of the United States. And more importantly, while retaining the Great Eagle- the symbol of the USA, his retention of the Olive Branch plus the thirteen colonies quiver of defense- the arrows- is not lost. But what is lost is noticeable. Even Novus Orden Seclundo is replaced by the bastardization of the neo socialist rally cry known all over Latin America as Si Se Puede or...Vero Possumus...Change You Can Believe in. The flag of the USA on the breast of the Eagle is replaced by....the Yellow Brick Road to Dorothy's Fantasy Land called Oz- the OZ of Obama's socialists with derivatives and hedge fund boys running his monied juggernaut for one world neo socialists while every Clinton-Carter and New Age operative is today working diligently for Obama's Oz.
Look again at the above photo. The official flags of the USA are blessing the new bastardized propaganda tool called the Great Seal of the Land of Obama's Oz.
On the eagle's breast is the Obama road to happiness and change- his own Yellow Brick Road to Oz's fairy land over the rainbow. Why the U.S. State Department has not moved to protect faux abuse of the Great Seal as the motto for expansionist socialism is another question.
We call it the Road to Sorosville/more global socialism for that is who has funded these events in main. It is also called Throwing the Great Seal and Annuit Coeptis under the bus...for the political greed of a few, also called political expediency for the unwise, non-knowing of Change We Can Believe In, which no one knows what this means and no one knows why SI SE PUEDE must replace In God We Trust. This also replaces the essential American rule of law as well. Not unlike going under the surgeon's knife, not knowing why the radical surgery, one must be a fool to abandon faith in God or common sense for the non-knowledge of mythical Change without knowing the particulars. And if you do not know what this Obama and Soros change is all about, it is irresponsible to vote for blind change. If you do not know, you must vote no. Worse yet, USA voters are encouraged to abandon loyalty to their creed, adopt a-religious political secularization instead of knowledge of their faith in God, their oaths and their friends, in short all they believe in, to facilitate change. Change for Obama and change for Soros. The Road to Sorosville is notable because there is no loyalty except to self promotion.
Here we have Leopoldo Lopez of Venezuela, himself a creature of the Cisneros media empire as interpreted by his excessively manipulative mother, of late aligned with the democracy ending Jimmy Carter and Hugo Chavez [while pretending to encourage democracy while busily selling it out], courtesy of NOTICIAS 24:
Leopoldo López se reunió este mediodía en EE.UU. con el candidato demócrata Barack Obama y le planteó el problema de las inhabilitaciones políticas en Venezuela.
Lopez sold himself off in an Obama promotional stunt called One America ...for the Soros machine of the UN socialists also called the US Democratic Party.
What troubles us is not that Obama or Leopoldo enjoy free speech inside the USA, a feature that Leopoldo does not enjoy inside Venezuela, but that Leopoldo Lopez does not discuss his money trail. Free speech without accountability remains dishonorable. Moreover, Obama and Soros have absolutely no respect for the very ones living and dying to defend that very freedom of speech which they very visibly enjoy in the USA while giving no credit or accounting for the sacrifices made to keep it that way except scant hollow rhetoric for their real acts and their real friends hold these values cheaply. Instead Leopoldo and Obama should reveal how much money Gustavo Cisneros has handed to the Obama-Soros political machine and what Lopez is doing to retain the Cisneros partnership with Hugo Chavez in a near media monopoly, having successfully conspired to destroy RC TV by criminal racketeering from under the nose of an unwatchful ownership. What troubles us deeply is that we know that unless and until Chavez returns RC TV to its owners in full, there is no legitimacy in Venezuela- no real or meaningful open media and property rights and nothing that Gustavo or Jimmy Carter or Leopoldo or Barack Hussein Obama do or say is meaningful unless and until first things are done first to restore rule of law and open media. Their loyalty should be first to the facts and to the people of Venezuela with total concern for legitimate acts under law. Instead their loyalty is to greed and self serving expediency while throwing the fundamentals of rule of law and open media....under the bus.
If this is ONE AMERICA- where never having to say you are Loyal nor care one iota about your fellow mankind [while charity is often laughed at in the Andes] and this is the rule of the day, we want no part of their shallow, hollow greed which we would prefer be returned to its original home base in Caracas and Quito for it is not a desired export however much Obama wants their money. Initially supported by US Republicans, these Venezuelans reveal the depth of their gratitude for any who help them with publicity and never substance with a no show for loyalty and a no show for gratitude. These people are as hollow as a dead tree.
Electing Soros's hand picked Barack Hussein Obama will cost about one half a billion dollars. They got Correa for a lot cheaper. Both Correa and Obama should give the money back.

June 21, 2008 Looking more and more like Cuba, Ecuador continues to go out of business. Here from this last week's EL COMERCIO is the "constituent assembly" hard at work in their overpaid, opaque resort gated communities for communists known as ASSEMBLISTA idiots in Montecristi [because you let them]:
La Asamblea perfila la jubilación sin límite de edad
These overpaid and undereducated buffoons have no seriousness and are not "we the people" unless of course you agree that all Ecuadoreans are run by a composite IQ of 14 and that all Ecuadoreans must be manipulated and lied to. That is how Ecuadoreans act: fully complicit in their private lives desiring and wanting to be manipulative while their own government, such as it is, manipulates and extorts them right back. This dishonesty is expensive not just to personal integrity but makes the entire nation look like a bunch of irresponsible, adolescent dummies.
Here they are again from HOY, hard at work with your tax dollars- not that you have any say/any input/any access or any guaranteed by the constitution, the OAS and the UN direct representation- no indeed- not even real media access because this gaggle in Montecristi is run exactly like the Cuban Assembly:
Varias críticas generó ayer el segundo debate sobre los textos de Derechos Civiles, Debido Proceso y Derechos Políticos. La sesión empezó a las 09:30 y se suspendió luego de cinco horas por el partido entre las selecciones de Ecuador y Colombia.
And while Ecuadoreans dither, expand their already failed reputation overseas and pretend that being lazy and dishonest will gain them a front row seat in the oligarchy Hall of Fame, we have no use for deceptive ploys. But do not look to the EU for any functional leadership. The EU just met for two days and the only thing the haphazard functionaries could accomplish was a fake advancement for the horror that is Cuba by deeming EU diplomats worthy of reinserting "diplomatic dialogue"- also called lifting the EU embargo- on Cuba by deceit. So now Cuba is free to receive the beneficial benefits of EU diplomats to save Cuba from being Cuba. As if. Today Cuba is not what propaganda advises. Cuba is a living serfdom of badly uneducated and unserved individuals who have no freedoms. But the EU's diplomats fail to grasp the concept that the only thing Cuba is doing is exporting its own citizens in forced work loads such as serving Venezuela's DISIP as hemisphere wide spies, particularly noxious in Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia. There is no reason for anyone to travel to Cuba except cheesy Spanish-invested hotels for third rate tourists from Europe and Canada who want cheesy vacations at discounted rates in this gulag while pretending that Cuba is great. Cuba is not great: it is a disgrace. The only reason anyone goes to Cuba today is for sex tourism- pedophilia, homosexual and group sex is on the travel menu, as the state desperately grows more and more soul dead automatons, also called Cuban collateral damage. This is called caring for the poor by the Chavez-Castro-Correa team. We call it one of the most debauched and irrelevant places on earth where true evil sells its children to the highest bidder and good men languish in dirt holes in the ground because they refused to give up their religious faith. But the EU diplomats, who cannot perform anything functional in their own continent, tell us that their diplomats, who are overpaid and overstaffed and rudderless, will help correct the soul dead dysfunctional communist Cuba today. As if.
We are astonished that the EU's head of trade Peter Mandelson's self revelations are reprinted in EL UNIVERSAL here in Caracas on June 18, 2008 as he beseeched the USA to join Europe as- what did he call it?- the New Progressive Movement. The EU trade leader lectures to the USA to become....more like the empty hollow shell that is Europe where nothing meaningful in general takes place. Mandelson lectures, "Progressives in the US and Europe need to revive the New Deal case for governments that help people engage with open economies, rather than leave them exposed."
Mandelson and the EU, besides trying to find some sort of busy work to keep their overpaid and extremely dysfunctional job operations making more meaningless busy work, need to pay attention to the facts. The facts are this: Cuba is a criminal, outlaw and now outsourced zone of convenience for all the world's morally debauched provocateurs where everything is nothing and nothing is honorable. Cuba exists because Venezuela feeds its depraved communist politburo while failed preside4nts like Rafael Correa of Ecuador continue to promise the Cuban people total solidarity with their misery on earth, denying that Cuba is living hell and continuing to create a second Cuba inside Ecuador.
But the EU's Mandelson lectures the United States and lobbies hard in an extraordinary and utterly compromising fashion to advise the USA to become more....like the nanny state EU and serve the godless, meaningless so called Progressive religion of the New Age USA Democrats called the Soros funded "Progressives" in what they call "new democracy" which is not new and is not democracy. The New Deal of the 1930s USA was state socialism which temporarily jump started a job corps inside the USA but was unsustainable, endin
