Wedding How Much Cake To Order

CONTEMPT OF POVERTY AND FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN IT

The electoral process to define who will be our new authorities has begun. In the race to become President of the Republic, contrary to what we had predicted several months ago (which were and remain ripe for a third party that ultimately did not emerge or has emerged) take shape with only two candidates rule option, that of Otto Pérez Molina of the Patriot Party, and Sandra Torres Casanova, National Unity Party of Hope.

The other, however respectable they may be people who lead them and their respective pairs, according to our vision of things today are lost.

However, amidst all the paraphernalia that occurs as the Guatemalan electoral process, leaning political parties, with an excess of candidates, and especially full of illegal or at least lack of respect for the law, we see is, above all, a lack of respect and consideration for the less fortunate of our fellow citizens who, by virtue of living in the balance that produces a lack of economic resources and, therefore, with great gaps in health housing, education (security now affects everyone, rich and poor), but for the fact that the vast majority, have become the object of Machiavellian design campaign strategy. Use

poverty of others to be name is lewd, immoral, unethical, and that is precisely what the campaign of the former First Lady, other than illegal and violative of the Constitution, has done for our brothers and sisters less fortunate within the country.

thousands convene a meeting with the "hook" that will deliver pictures, nixtamal mills, sewing machines, knives or any object type "mirror" to attract people's attention and make them go up disappointed back to their homes, has no name.

Using state resources to be sacred to mount a patronage program, nor has it. And to read us well have to write it like it is: we are definitely against a program of the nature of which have been called the "social cohesion", but any delivery of public funding should be transparent, well-audited and, in particular , completely away from any temptation to make policy. Is that poverty should not be played, and the poverty of the people who have been exploiting!

On the other side of the spectrum, well positioned retired General Pérez Molina, a campaign is still warm, hopeful, perhaps, in the antibodies that the former First Lady generated and continue to generate in churches and the generally more aware of the urban population.

is a mistake, we believe that both candidates now lead the preferences, I bet the antivoto or lack of enthusiasm that other colleagues are able to generate candidate or not in this fight.

From our unique position of viewers still see the opportunity for a third party, with a little ingenuity, know from the crowd and change things, injecting a little excitement to a skeptical population, who rightly do not want to know little or nothing of politicians. Exit

to campaign before the law, whether administrative as has challenged permits, is itself same contempt order and a challenge to the ignorance of the less fortunate majority.

men and women are needed, making policy with a fundamental respect for the law, institutions and citizens, but especially someone who turn to see the poor as they are ordinary citizens who need authority on your side, not to use them as a springboard, just thinking about them when it comes to generating votes.

Hopefully some of those close to the candidates, everyone in general, I do get these lines. The option for the poor is not just rhetoric or the Episcopal Conference of a church influenced by theology of Liberation, is a reality that those who wish to run this country should understand.

Citizens living in urban centers deserve our respect and now we are under fire due to years of weak government, also supported, but who has traveled to villages, hamlets and mountain trails, knows and understands that the farmer has many more gaps than in cities, are good people, simple and beautiful that it deserves more respect and less manipulation.

From the standpoint that we have explained, we who have devoted many years to politics and, especially, development issues, from this rostrum declare our virtual option for the poor.

Eyebrow Waxing Before Period

CONFLICT Libya and the Central American Parliament

The American left to surprise us again in the last Plenary Assembly of the Central American Parliament, the lead, agreed between them, an effort to defend butchers of their own ideology, which they paint themselves, which is seeking seek a negotiated solution to the Libyan crisis, a clear intent to gain time to dictator of Tripoli.

Of course we support, but to propose two changes, one of them, the old-looking and Muhamar Colonel Gaddafi leaves office after nearly 42 years to exercise with an iron fist. The proposal, of course, did not happen, but were Large tremendous applause and the excitement (to use an Arabic word in its third sense) when the initiative itself was passed, as if the context of international public opinion will move a finger to seek a negotiated solution to armed conflict as complex Internally, only because the Central American Parliament declared him. All this defending

informal ( ex nihilo nihil fit, "Nothing comes from nothing"), was little understood and not caused by the purely ideological is very strong among Marxists, as we have seen, but increasingly is more understandable to the extent that more information and this, in turn, allows the process reasoning goes concatenating causes and effects of the actions of the spokesmen of the radical left in America and its ad latere .

For example, the recent link made of Mohamed Mahamed Lasthar (in some cables Lashtar media appears to be), now that, through one of the thousands of cables leaked through Wikileaks, by Ambassadors of the United States, we know that this character, alternate deputy Nicaragua to the Central American Parliament, Jacinto Espinoza Suárez (page 33), is both private secretary Daniel Ortega, President of the Republic, Colonel's nephew Muhamar Gaddafi, who has ruled Libya with an iron hand for over 4 decades.

According to the cable, this information was also shared by the government of Spain.

press releases in this case are interesting to read because this dark character, who almost no one knows, not only directs Gadhafi Libyan investments in Nicaragua (the cable talk of the region and those of Tisma San Francisco Libre, a farm, etc.), of which the latest is the granting of television Channel 49 in Nicaragua, but has other activities that will discuss later.

all started when he to Nicaragua, circa 1980, but during the years of opposition to Ortega, from 1990 to 2006, says the cable, served to channel the money Libyan Gaddafi to Ortega's campaign, until he managed his re-election.

But a little research we found newswires other times, as the 2007 , where he is linked with the Islamic indoctrination of Venezuela and Chiapas, in particular, but also in Nicaragua, and other interesting facts as it has formed its own intelligence network which has been the link between the attempts of Iran, Venezuela, Argentina, Cuba, Mexico and Nicaragua, especially to form the "American Federation of Nuclear Workers," where it is known, by emails that have come to light, which are linked Polish, Swedish and French, in addition to Al Qaeda, through relatives of Osama bin Laden.

striking, too, that the Libyan citizen of Nicaragua, who operates from his office in the premises of the Foreign Ministry of that country has allowed to enter Nicaragua without visa, 3 Libyans and 21 Iranians from Caracas. "Linked to the plan to assemble atomic devices that the press has been reporting since early 2005? Who knows? but this is all very suspicious. What is the source a foreign power in this country, much has been nationalized?

Finally, the other end of this press release, there are three sections deserve read carefully: "The mysterious Lashtar", "long was nationalized," and "The loan from Gaddafi" (sic) in where, briefly, by information retrieved from Luis Edgar Devia, alias "Raúl Reyes" (a personal friend of Jacinto Suarez, as indicated), the FARC commander killed in a bombing of the Colombian armed forces in Ecuadorian territory, we know that Reyes he wrote to Daniel Ortega for his good offices to Gaddafi (sic) will pay $ 100 million to buy anti-aircraft weapons, under pressure from the government air force.

What makes Daniel Ortega a legitimate intermediary in the light of known guerrilla commanders to intervene with the vast fortune amassed by Muhamar Gaddafi in Libya? What is happening, really, in Nicaragua, with money hand over fist that Daniel Ortega has become part of Gaddafi and Hugo Chavez?

Is this a direct interference and monetary policy in the internal affairs of States in the region, so the granite joins American left to defend what the lights of intelligence, reason and common sense is indefensible ?

No doubt Gaddafi and Chávez, taking the money they steal from their villages and move to our latitudes, have great influence but no power of decision in our small countries, to the extent that it is obvious that they are exercising their ius primae noctis, and lackeys of the left that nest in the Central American Parliament have no choice but to enjoy it with the hope that some of that ill-gotten wealth of playing them, surely.

vain illusion, if those who are always willing to "sacrifice" for re-election, although the Constitution does not allow them, are the Gadafis, the Ortega and Chavez, children's choir Central American Parliament. No doubt that is lame ox to the yoke!

Still, there may be friendship and interest, but that shed innocent blood to keep in power a tyrant will splash them forever.

I did my part: it falls Gaddafi and any other dictator with an air of redeeming both now abound in the tropics of America!

And now I do it again, I repeat, as I said over a year ago in this space, that Daniel Ortega is leading Nicaragua to civil war, and now, in light of these data, I add, the delicate balance Central America could be lost if Daniel Ortega, and re-elected, made with rest of Central America that Gaddafi and Chávez are doing with it, finance it.

If Daniel Ortega becomes a source of ill-gotten wealth distribution in Libya and Venezuela, (because it is not credible to do with money in Nicaragua) with little can completely alter the political landscape of one of our countries, although imperfections, are still far more democratic than he leads.

to see when the world turns to see what this President, elected democratically but about to become a dictator, has been doing since his political party, the Sandinista National Liberation Front, FSLN, broke all legal and democratic system broke done, for the poor, with local elections in November 2008.

us all remember that the communicating vessels in Central America are strong and that what happens there will affect everyone, some more than others, but to the whole.
