    Blatter. And the difference between him on the one hand and Kirchner and Rousseff on the other is......? Three argies on the run. What a surprise....NOT? How does one pick them out from the other 40 million on the run? Putin is at least as corrupt as Kirchner and Rousseff. But he has an army! How many of the 144 million downtrodden 'citizens', that he supposedly represents, is he happy to sacrifice? Blatter is about as bent as you can get. President but he knows nothing? Just the same as Lulu. Let's have the bank accounts and asset reports out in the open. How many millions have Blatter, Lulu, Kirchner and Rousseff stolen? There's an easy way to tell. Impound all the money and assets. Wait 10 years. See if they are still alive. Without money or assets, they should die in short order.

    It is very clear that Blatter thinks he is another Lula and immune from prosecution.

    He may well be correct the way this is starting.

    Perhaps a hitman may be the answer.

    The most corrupt government on Earth bar none investigating the 2nd most corrupt organization in the world (the first being the USA-dominated IOC).

    About as serious as a revolution of 2-year olds who in 15 minutes will beg for a diaper change.
