    Can this be called as “Operation Poseidon”?

    The Country - a majority of the population - is the Titanic and ALL the politicians [each one, more crooked than the other] together is one HUGE formidable Iceberg!

    In TODAY's scenario, the only way left for the country is to go down; unless an honest (SOMEWHAT honest At Least) politician-leader appears MIRACULOUSLY!

    You say...:
    ”In TODAY's scenario, the only way left for the country is to go down; unless an honest (SOMEWHAT honest At Least) politician-leader appears MIRACULOUSLY!”

    I say...
    In TODAY's scenario, the only way LEFT for the country is to go LEFT..., were some honest politician-leaders can be found..., for example...:
    Rui Costa Pimenta (PCO)
    Luiz Araujo (PSOL)
    José Maria de Almeida (PSTU)
    Edmilson Costa (PCB)

    If those honest guys are a bit too LEFT for you..., please feel free to vote for Marina Silva (PSB)...
    She is quite honest...

    @McStink the Chimp
    If you like the names of those insignificant lefties - who, if truly honest, are only so because no large corporation thought they would go anywhere, so not worthwhile getting on the payroll - maybe we could have them shipped down to Chubut.....would that please you ?
    If you believe they are honest 'today', put them in a position of power and see what happens to them....
    As to Marina, not presidential material....
    Back to square one.
