the people will not let it happen! They won't allow him to appear in public. He was sworn in IN SECRET at the Presidential Palace -- reported this morning on Democracy Now.

John Gibler reports disappearances of APPO protesters in Oaxaca. There is a list of 300 people - 200 leaders of APPO and 100 foreigners -- that are being sought by the "authorities" - not sure if Oaxaca state police or feds or locals, probably state police. These people are pre school workers, nurses, university students and farm workers - working people not professional organizers.

Gibler says that he has been there for months and has not seen 100 foreigners in Oaxaca violating the law. (Probably spin.)

Bush was supposed to attend the inauguration but no one knows if there will be an event because yesterday fights broke out in the Mexican Congress. :evilgrin:

John Gibler reports that the whole nation (Mexico) is highly aware of the uprising in Oaxaca. He also reports that the press and the Mexican government have lied in all kinds of ways about Brad Wills' death in their attempts to blame APPO for it but their lies have been debunked because APPO wasn't using firearms and because the tape Brad shot itself disproves these false allegations.
