LOL OBenario Mar 2015 #1

Why don't you write to the author of the article and get those names and report back? MADem Mar 2015 #2

Your link doesn't say anything about "dozens of Workers' Party" members. OBenario Mar 2015 #3

Yes, it does. It says 26, to be precise--that's two more than two dozen. MADem Mar 2015 #6

The article doesn't say those 26... OBenario Mar 2015 #9

They're dancing with the ones what brung 'em! MADem Mar 2015 #12

you prove once again you don't know anything about this OBenario Mar 2015 #17

Those are two of thirty four politicians. nt MADem Mar 2015 #27

70% of the politicians charged... OBenario Mar 2015 #30

Really. You should read before trying to comment. MADem Mar 2015 #34

yeah, they are the dozens that showed up for the feeble Friday pro-corruption march nt Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #4

Then give their names. OBenario Mar 2015 #5

I think you need to prove that the sources are lying, and you can't do that. MADem Mar 2015 #7

this artcles says 26 were charged. OBenario Mar 2015 #11

I've given you several articles with names in them. If you want to pretend there's nothing to see MADem Mar 2015 #15

i dont OBenario Mar 2015 #42

You're the one who misread the article in the first place--and now you're yelling at everyone MADem Mar 2015 #45

the author if the thread... OBenario Mar 2015 #54

See? You just proved my point. "The author of the thread" said NOTHING of the sort. MADem Mar 2015 #56

well... OBenario Mar 2015 #78

No, you need to apologize to the thread starter for misrepresenting his thread. MADem Mar 2015 #83

So I'm guessing you consider The Guardian to be an unreliable right-wing source? N/t Marksman_91 Mar 2015 #8

nope OBenario Mar 2015 #10

Uh....I linked to a GUARDIAN article. MADem Mar 2015 #13

the Guardian... OBenario Mar 2015 #14

No--that's where they got their money. nt MADem Mar 2015 #16

most politicians charged... OBenario Mar 2015 #19

You need to go back and do some reading. CAREFUL reading. One. Word. at. a. time. MADem Mar 2015 #29

Prove it. Name them, and their political affiliations. If you can't do that, we'll know what MADem Mar 2015 #36

Looks like someone joined up just for this particular issue Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #20

I know--few on DU would even give a crap one way or another--it's kind of funny. MADem Mar 2015 #22

saying you don't know anything about this topic... OBenario Mar 2015 #24

I know more about it than someone who can't tell a charge from an investigation. nt MADem Mar 2015 #31

clearly not. OBenario Mar 2015 #33

Well, I won't believe you until you post them here for us to see. Prove it!!! nt MADem Mar 2015 #35

I'll a make a thread about it. OBenario Mar 2015 #44

No--you need to post those details in THIS thread, and not spam the board with multiple threads MADem Mar 2015 #48

If my intention was to pretend it isn't happening... OBenario Mar 2015 #84

From the Guardian article: Marksman_91 Mar 2015 #18

Good. You have one name of the Workers Party... OBenario Mar 2015 #21

You're having trouble reading the article, apparently. Go back and read it slowly. MADem Mar 2015 #23

well OBenario Mar 2015 #25

Do prosecutors release the names of people who are under "INVESTIGATION" before they've MADem Mar 2015 #26

nope. OBenario Mar 2015 #28

No they aren't. But if they are, I challenge you to post them here. MADem Mar 2015 #32

Our friend is playing games, he is the one asserting that the politicians are NOT Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #37

then present their names... OBenario Mar 2015 #41

You are the one who claimed they are listed--so list them. nt MADem Mar 2015 #67

don't worry OBenario Mar 2015 #79

Never seen anything quite like this. MADem Mar 2015 #43

It doesn't make sense to see you assaulting this new DU'er relentlessly. Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #51

The poor little " new ... DUer" attacked the thread starter with a false assertion. MADem Mar 2015 #59

don't worry OBenario Mar 2015 #38

Ok, looking forward to your post nt Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #39

If you don't post them here, I will have to assume that you are here at DU to disrupt. MADem Mar 2015 #40

I didn't read anywhere... OBenario Mar 2015 #47

It's not a question of what I like--when you post multiple threads on the same topic, you are MADem Mar 2015 #49

looks like you're trying to intimidate me. OBenario Mar 2015 #50

Why do you keep calling me "Honey?" Does that make you feel tough or superior, or something? MADem Mar 2015 #64

1-6 Leave-- msanthrope Mar 2015 #53

Dilma Rousseff did not fight against the right-wing military dictatorship, suffer horrific torture Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #46

K/R Dawson Leery Mar 2015 #52

It truly is, isn't it? Progressive people support Dilma Rousseff and her entire life's work. n/t Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #57

Attacks seem to be concentrated on the same battlefield by the same platoon with the same dud ammo. Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #69

Rousseff is now under attack by the same folks attacking Maduro, Morales, anyone not kowtowing to Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #55

They don't conceal their real political leanings at all. No one is fooled. n/t Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #58

Just have to make sure they get it that they are not fooling any onlookers either. Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #63

Poor Dilma, now in the company of Maduro. Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #60

Truly, no one on DU is being fooled into demonizing entire emergent socialist Latin America. People Power is here to stay. Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #61

I actually didn't realize to what depths she has reached. Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #65

Boring beyond speech...... Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #68

your new username? quite fitting. Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #73

which actions by Rousseff... OBenario Mar 2015 #81

She has reached a Maduro level approval rating. Her scandal and the economic Bacchus4.0 Mar 2015 #85

why? OBenario Mar 2015 #86

Had forgotten about their training manuals. They've been doing the same things a LONG time. Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #74

I rather doubt that the people who voted for her, and now are saying she needs to go, are fascists. MADem Mar 2015 #62

once again you show you ignore the subject. OBenario Mar 2015 #77

No, looks like that is YOUR error: "Brazil's mounting job losses turn Rousseff bedrock to quicksand" MADem Mar 2015 #87

they went in fact to the streets on March 13 OBenario Mar 2015 #88

Not that many people consider financial magazines as true guides to the inner workings Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #90

Rousseff is the like the Latin American Warren and the Aztec Amazons wrapped into one real life super hero. Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #66

Elizabeth Warren would have not allowed all of that corruption over the course of a decade. MADem Mar 2015 #70

You forgot the sarcasm emoticon? Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #71

Nope. MADem Mar 2015 #72

similar approval rating she had... OBenario Mar 2015 #80

Union workers are now fascists? OK, whatever. nt MADem Mar 2015 #82

usually no. OBenario Mar 2015 #89

Good one! Some have been known to simply turn in articles based on tv news in their hotel rooms. Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #91

I guess they've got paid shills over at GUARDIAN UK, too, then? They're saying they didn't turn out. MADem Mar 2015 #93

Misinformation, for a change... OBenario Mar 2015 #94

I read it--but you're saying that Guardian UK is lying? MADem Mar 2015 #95

Apparently you've not paid close attention to the Guardian over the last years. Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #96

OK, so YOU are saying that GUARDIAN UK is lying, too? MADem Mar 2015 #97

Great point, exactly right. By the way, never expected to see Forbes with a cover like that! n/t Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #75

I am sure they are preparing another less flattering cover, if needed. Fred Sanders Mar 2015 #76

We can depend upon them for that! Nothing would make them happier. Judi Lynn Mar 2015 #92
