Reply #2: Goriletti yesterday asked for forgiveness

[rabs]

Don't know if this has appeared in English-language media but saw it yesterday on CholusatSur.

Goriletti, after having proclaimed that would go on "vacation" from the presidency for one week, at the time promised that he would abastain from all public functions. He lied.

Yesterday he appeared at a ceremony at the main basilica in Teguz, where he took the pulpit to rant about Honduran democracy and the elections.

But he also sent one of the presidenatial candidate to hell -- in a roundabout way. He said four of the five candidates believed in God, but one did not. He was speaking of César Han, who is known in Honduras as the "Three-in-one" because of his Chinese, African and Indian ancestery.

Then goriletti dropped a surprise, he asked, from the pulpit, for forgiveness from the Honduran people. In the same sentence, he "exigio" (demanded) forgiveness for "us" from the people.

That indicates that he is a total brute, because in the Spanish-speaking world one can forgive someone, but cannot "demand" that that same someone forgive you.

Speaking of CholusatSur, yesterday it went back partically over cable, but the Internet signal was still out.
Esdras, the owner and main anchor, said the microwave signals had been pirated and that for 72 hours, western movies (I saw Bonanza) and pronographic movies (from a porno company named "Premiun," had been shown on CholusatSur's frequency.

Esdras said that the electronic equipment used to interfere with the signal had been detected by CONATEL -- the Honduran communications company, in a downtown building but that there had been no arrests.

Esdras warned that the lives of his staff and his own were in danger and that he could not guarantee that the station would be on the air later this week and during the elections.
