May 12, 2008  Of all the ridiculous things to state to the "newspaper of record," the NEW YORK TIMES, here is one of the most misleading sentences ever uttered by a sitting ambassador:  " `We have had a lot of success in the fight against drugs with the F.O.L.,' Linda Jewell, the American ambassador to Ecuador, said recently. `We will talk to the government to find ways in which we can continue working together.' “We say that this is misleading because it is the U.S. efforts that have detected narcotics couriers in the Pacific region by use of AWACS from the Base at Manta and it is U.S. satellite surveillance that has shown the dozens and dozens of permanent and mobile FARC training and forward operations camps inside Ecuador and Venezuela, in existence for years but highly organized and deadly in the last 18 months. Jewell is a liar when she says that "We will talk to the government to find ways in which we can continue working together."
 
Ecuador under its FARC sponsoring regime of Rafael Correa might permit its national poet, the new defense minister to talk with Jewell even as it allowed its former Foreign Affairs Minister Espinosa, herself a porn poet and poseur, to claim "close ties" with Jewell, which of course indicates the gravity of the Jewell ineffective, dishonest lack of representation of U.S. laws and its own employees under the badly prepared Jewell, whose only claim to fame as ambassador is her close ties to the family of U.S. Senator Chris Dodd and her unswerving support for all pro Drugs Soros activities in the Andes.
 
Yesterday, in what appears to be a drunken stupor [common these days we hear], Lula of Brazil declared Hugo Chavez a great president- the best that Venezuela has had in over 100 years. Chavez, who just called Germany's Merkel an incarnation, so to speak of a Nazi, is no one who should be president of anything: he is unfit for any job. Merkel, for her part, honestly described Chavez as a dictator and urged no European nation to back his criminal regime. Merkel is not buying the Chavez and Correa ploy to legitimize the FARC either: she is upholding German law, unlike Correa and Chavez.  Lula, pictured in NOTICIAS 24, on the job....but mentally vacated, even as he tries very hard to aid and abet Chavez who is, with Rafael Correa, a state sponsor of terror, no matter what the drunk Lula utters...or slurs:



No one- not even the U.S. Department of State- should be fooled any more about Lula’s support for Chavez. Try as they might to pretend that Lula is not a full ally of Chavez, today it can only be said that Lula and his team are liars: they never had any intention of helping corral Chavez's growing criminal wanderlust: no indeed. And anyone who bought these lies from Lula, about Lula, were either idiots or already working for the pro FARC team from the Soros family of NGO propagandists.
 
While we agree that Venezuelan governments have only marginally been above pond scum for some time, it is not honest to ignore the fact that Venezuela, before Chavez, had made some serious strides- their military was not commandeered by the presidency as it is now and their Congress had moved toward independent decision making, as had their courts. As in Ecuador today, all this is now gone- all progress removed and democracy aborted. Which of course means that Hugo Chavez is the worst president Venezuela has ever had- the most dishonest, the most corrupt and the most secretive buffoon in collective history. The same is true about Rafael Correa. Both of these thugs need to go now: they are failures and worse- they are dangerous.
 
Rafael Correa, trying to secure allies to help him lie some more about  what he has been doing, is also featured here with the King of Spain, also from NOTICIAS 24:



We can only hope that King Juan Carlos is beginning to wrestle Correa and to slap handcuffs on him, while smiling. Will there be any swaps of support to protect Correa's theft of REPSOL or the already bribed TELEFONICA? We somehow do not believe that the King of Spain does now-standard Correa extortion deals. But we could be wrong. Spain is aware, as are any with eyes to see and ears to hear, that Correa fully supports and encourages his government's theft of foreign company assets, such as OCCIDENTAL. Correa has broken ties with the World Bank, which really should kick him out for denouncing the CIIADI court system. Correa is in state sponsorship of the FARC, like Chavez and Correa has plundered his state finances, recently shown in his created doubling of interest rates which should land him on the USA booting out his free use of the U.S. dollar.
 
Ecuador today is lawless. Ecuador today has no leader and Ecuador today is a nation of liars, led by a liar whose very life is on the line. Under these conditions- whenever any group is headed by manipulative addicts, nothing is serene, nothing is stable and nothing is honest or able to grow anything useful.
