saw this over at counterpunch: The Bush's Family Bad Latin American Real Estate Investment

Back in late 2006, it was widely reported in the Latin American media that President Bush, or perhaps his old man, had bought a 100,000-acre farm in a remote area of Paraguay.

What struck people at the time was the choice of country. Paraguay, of course, has gained a certain Club Med status among the world's villains and criminal elements as the place to go when the law's on your tail. The country, ruled for six decades by the dictatorial and fascist Colorado Party of Gen. Alfredo Stroesser, an almost cartoon charicature of a Latin American dictator, has no extradition treaty with any nation.

Given that President Bush, once he leaves office on January 20, 2009, will no longer have the diplomatic immunity conferred upon heads of state, or the Constitutional protection against indictment by domestic prosecutors, it makes sense that he would be looking for a safe haven from the long arm of the law.

Only trouble is, Paraguay may not be such a safe haven for long...

can l savour the prospect of this?

the revolution will not be televised...

On another topic, it sounds like this campaign is winding down very, very quickly.  Should I allow myself the hope that Hillary will do the right thing for once?

Be nice to America. Or we'll bring democracy to you country.

Some examples of how to use the correct term:

. Barack just can't seem win the Redneck vote.
. Hillary sure is going out of her way to prove her Redneck credentials, isn't she?
. Rednecks use the Barack-is-a-Muslim and the Barack-is-unpatriotic slurs so they can pretend they're not afraid of black people.

Or am I just being a bigot?

Maybe optimists vote for Obama (hence upper income, college educated) and pessimists vote for Clinton (lower income, lower education).

Maybe nice people vote for Obama and nasty people vote for Clinton. (I'm thinking of folks at some other blogs...!)

Maybe people over 5'5 vote for Obama, and under 5'5' vote for Clinton.

I mean, seriously. It reminded me of a woman at the racetrack who simply bet the horse with the longest tail, and won all day long. No rhyme or reason.

I know a black guy, very level headed, who thinks Obama might be a Muslim.

One of my brothers forwarded the Muslim view the other day, and I was so disappointed - I almost couldn't go through the 'no - and so what if he was?' thing.  And I've said this before - many dem voters won't vote for a black man or a white woman, either.  We're going to see a lot of dem voters sit this one out, either way.
