Bush Meets Paraguay (where Bush owns lots& lots of land) President Lugo, Supports Corruption Fight
Source: RTT News

President George Bush joined Paraguayan President Fernando Lugo Monday in a pledge to bring assistance to the poverty-stricken South American nation while fighting corruption in the ranks of its government.

After a meeting with Lugo at the White House, Bush said his administration welcomed the opportunity to open discussions with Lugo that could lead to assistance from Washington.

"We want to help with education and health care. We care deeply about people being able to work," Bush said.

"There's nothing more discouraging than to have the government of a people steal their money," said Bush.

profits...stealing resources and the IMF & World Bank.

I have no problem with socialism, it's certainly not fascism or communism, no matter what the republican say and try to ram down our brains.

4. Fernando Lugo declined meeting that beast Sarah Palin! Why didn't our media let us know, anyway?

Paraguay's Lugo -- No Palin Photo Prop

Last week, John McCain sought to bolster Sarah Palin's nonexistent foreign policy credentials by having her sit for photographs with willing heads of state.

As expected, Palin scored photo-ops with Afghanistan's Hamid Karzai, Colombia's Alvaro Uribe, Georgia's Mikheil Saakashvili, Ukrainian's Viktor Yushchenko, Pakistan's Asif Ali Zardari, Iraq's Jalal Talabani and India's Manmohan Singh as these leaders gathered in NYC for the annual UN General Assembly.

However, it appears some dignitaries shunned the political sideshow, declining the photo prop pleas of McCain-Palin. One such person is the newly elected President of Paraguay - Fernando Lugo. He is said to have confided to friends in NYC that he turned down an invitation to take pictures with Palin.

Who is Fernando Lugo?

He's a former Roman Catholic bishop, progressive and champion of the poor who broke the 62-year rule of the country's repressive rightwing regime.

Very interesting considering the cozy relationship between the U.S. government and the Paraguayan regime defeated by Lugo.

BTW: The U.S. established an airbase in strategically located Mariscal Estigarribia in Northern Paraguay -- an area with access to the Guarani Aquifer, the world's largest source of fresh drinking water; close to Bolivia's natural gas reserves, the second largest in Latin America; and within aerial reach of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil and the rest of the continent. Additionally, Rev. Sun Myung Moon owns (1,482,600 acres), and George W. Bush is rumored to have recently purchased (100,000 acres), land atop the aquifer in Chaco.

Sure wish we could find out who the OTHER heads of state were who refused to accept photo ops with McCain's prodegy, as well!



This is the Paraguayan airbase, built by a Nazi-supporter President Alfredo Stroessner, in the 1970's, who ruled, using torture, and murder of dissidents to supress opposition, with no flak from the U.S. for over 35 years, who gave haven to the Nazi butcher Josef Mengele

and also Klaus Barbi, and a number of others. Its size: 3,5 km length, 40 m width, all 35 cm-deep concrete. It can receive the enormous C-5 Galaxy.

Wouldn't you imagine Bush wants to bully Lugo into allowing him to keep that base in his country? I don't think Lugo will bend over for him, so he'll probably resort to trying to bribe him with something HUGE.

8. Junior cannot transition coherently from one lie to the next.
He's like a mumbling alcoholic, uttering fragmented sentences made up of fragmented thoughts. I think he learned that from Poppy.

chuckled Bush. Then he winked.
