A majority of Brazilians favor impeaching President Dilma Rousseff due to the economic slump and a snowballing corruption scandal at state-run oil company Petrobras, according to a poll released this week.

    Former President Fernando Henrique Cardoso is shitting himself in case HE has to sort out the Lula created utter fuck-up of the economy and the country.

    Clearly, being in opposition is about his limit.

    Brazil are well and truly fucked.

    It is clear that Dilma's popularity, as well as her credibility has gone to the dogs.
    But this, and extreme incompetence is not enough to 'impeach' her. Although I would like to see the end of her, even if this means that Michele Temer would become President, there has to be proof of malfeasance on her part to start the process. The fact is that no-one, in his/her right mind, believes she could have been the head of PB for 7 years, during all the corruption, and not known about it.......All we need is for the prosecutors to track the US$ 200 million skimmed off Petrobras (by the PT) , to her re-election campaign fund. We need the smoking gun, then we can dispatch her to hell.

    @2. Just shoot her. Brazil is the homicide capital of the world. We can probably frame Brasiliero for it. He's already made a threat. Where's the problem?

    I'm counting the hours to join me to loyalist forces to send to hell Aécio Neves, FHC, Aluízio Nunes and Jack Bosta.

    @4 brassholes
    Threats, and especially anonymous ones, are the tools of cowards.....the only thing you are ever going to join yourself to, is a piece of shite........poor shite !

    @9 “Foda. É foda esse mundo novo!”

    Ah é ?? mas se você odeia o mundo novo, sobra o mundo velho...que voce também odeia.....porque é democrático é civilizado....então, poderíamos mandar vocês todos para a PQP...aí, todo o mundo estaria feliz. Tchau burraldo !!
    Free translation:
    The brazzo just said he hates the New World...then what does he like ? the old world ? democratic and civilized....so I suggested he goes back to where he came from, and it would make everyone happy...

    @11
