    Mujica is a frightened, senile, old man. He says what CFK tells him to say. He does what CFK tells him to do. Useless, irresolute and, basically, weak. Anyone can see why argies would like him. They can walk all over him. And they will!

    But even weasels can see the truth in the constitutional removal of a 'Bishop' who has so many children no-one knows how many there are.

    I suppose he buggered little boys as a preamble to shagging his 'flock'.

    This is what God would want of course! Except there is no god.

    Good riddance to Lugo.

    Peace.

    An atheist critisizing a former bishop for having kids anno 2012... You sure you are atheist?

    Good riddance to you...

    Headline should be ”Two oligarchic (Battle was the fourth generation in a row of his family to be President), old (Battle is almost a decade older even the “senile” Pepe, Conk) and politically rejected former Presidents back Paraguyan oligarchic coup”

    Two Uruguayan ex-presidents, neither part of the Broad Front coalition of the many Left-wing groups, support the new leadership of Paraguay.
    No surprise there.

    They criticise their own country's leadership and the combined action of the Left-dominated governments of South America (Unasur).
    No surprise there.

    They emphasise that the Paraguayan Senate disposed of its president within the rules provided by its constitution, and themselves became steam-rollered by Unasur and Mercosur's coup of the Left.
    No surprise there.

    They did not accuse CFK, Rousseff or Chavez (or Mujica) of orchestrating the coup.
    This is the only surprise - one of omission.
