    “Even if every man in my Government is found guilty, it does not mean that I knew anything about it”
    This is the position of the former President of Brasil.

    Under his watch corruption was spread throughout all parts of government and public administration ..... but this man claims to know nothing about it.

    SHAME is heaped on the ex-president

    SHAME on every public 'servant' that condoned and participated

    SHAME on the people of the nation of Brasil for 'turning the blind eye' and letting it all happen.

    GeoffWards2,

    Great words, great comment. Shame on the people of the nation of Brazil. It's sad to see brazilian so passive with this situation... “None of the accused has been arrested, and none of them are in court.” It's just ridiculous. Shame on brazilians.
