Next Target of the Corporate Dominated CIA?
[tag]Paraguay[/tag] just swore in it’s first leftist leader
[tag]Fernando Lugo[/tag], “the bishop of the poor” as he is known here, was sworn in as president of Paraguay on Friday, ending six decades of one-party rule and promising to give land to the landless and to end the nation’s entrenched corruption.
[snip]
The election of Lugo, the ultimate outsider who spent 11 years as a priest living in the countryside and working with peasant movements seeking land reform, was a dramatic break with the past for this landlocked country of six million hamstrung by massive inequality and rural poverty.
He was elected promising change on an ill-defined [tag]socialist[/tag] platform and will have to manage the soaring expectations of Paraguayans in what by law is a single five-year term.
” target=”_blank”>Too bad Georgie boy – you pissed off the CIA over Iraq so maybe you shouldn’t count on their help getting rid of Lugo so you can retire there safe from prosecution.
