"With reasonable men I will reason; with humane men I will plea; but to tyrants I will give no quarter, nor waste arguments where they will certainly be lost."
 
October 1, 2009   ECrisis has stated here before- many times- that president Rafael Correa is an economically incompetent psychopath. He has converted Ecuador in to an unfree rogue state while he and his chumps run a nasty back room cartel, chock full of lawlessness and sly maneuvers to self enrich and debauch all that they touch. Correa, for his part, is not popular. We challenge anyone to detail the steps that Correa has taken to run a free, fair, open democracy inside Ecuador. Your list, if it exists at all, will be very short. Good luck getting the USA to agree with you because the USA and the OAS and all Chavez/ALBA nations are determined to pretend that psychopathic lying is great- as long as the drugs keep rolling out. We happen to disagree. So too does Dan Henninger here: “Obama, Dictators and democrats”
 
We at ECrisis also wonder what Ecuadoreans are doing because Correa's team has and holds the values of a used car dealer:

"Ecuadorean Car Salesman Denies Seeking Bribe in Chevron Case".

And more behind the scenes gossip... two articles:

"From a Zelaya Backer, an Admission That Honduras Got It Right"
 

"How Chavez may have spoiled ousted Honduran leader's return"
 
Continue as you may to pretend that you will have justice and freedom under your special justice meted out by Correa, Chavez, Mahmoud and chums.... but you will never ever have liberty nor integrity in your days under their disgrace. Give no quarter- that means.... do not cut dirty deals- with tyrants from all walks of life among you.

This from 19th century anti-slavery, abolitionist leader William Lloyd Garrison:

"With reasonable men I will reason; with humane men I will plea; but to tyrants I will give no quarter, nor waste arguments where they will certainly be lost."
 
Why, we ask, are so many in Washington, D.C. and Guayaquil rushing to make "business" deals with the impressively immoral and very dirty sister of Rafael Correa? Ecuador needs wind farms and energy derivatives and carbon traders? Last we looked, Ecuador needed education- real education not the phony education currently handed out if at all and real jobs. Why does she crow about her money making prowess when everyone knows she is just one more dirty front for a very dirty familia de Correa?  And why, we beg to know, does the USA think this woman is so very clean when such is contrary to known facts?
 
Give no quarter to tyrants.
