Periodistas de El Libertario se acercaron para conocer su valoración del escenario político tras la cita refrendaria.

Bliar Impeachment - Talk about it at the Gruniad site

27-08-2004 12:57

The process may help display the causes of Bliar's committing to the USUK attack. I think his ignorance and stupidity, compounded by simple religious fundamentalism, is the prime mover. Note his refusal to answer the query about whether he prayed with Bush Jnr., visit to the Pope pre-attack and the hidden fundamentalist background.....
I think it points to a need for intelligence testing for elected reps., and for the instigation of a proper democracy with PR, as in Germany and elsewhere.

'NY-Lon' - Republican Nation Convention coverage

26-08-2004 09:42

The Republican National Committee has, for the first time in its 150 year history, selected New York for their Convention from August 29-September 2, 2004. In a shallow attempt at exploiting the lives lost at the World Trade Center, the RNC has pushed the Convention date to September. Having witnessed two unjust wars in the name of freedom and democracy (plus at least one American life lost each day overseas, a depressed economy, the collapse of the dollar, $87 billion to boost war profiteering, the closing of our firehouses, a health-care crisis, millions of children being left behind, and now this), Americans are gathering to say, ENOUGH!
