This blog is intended for those who want to read press articles that contain unique insights --as well as information that is often hard to find-- about Latin American politics, economy and society. I compile news articles on a regular basis and occasionally include my own analysis. Comments are always welcome. I hope people find this site useful.

Worst possible catastrophe in Colombian Elections : The triumph of Criminals, Paracos, Narcos, Paramilitaries, Swindlers, Money Launderers, Dirty Money
Colombia is the closest ally of the United States in Latin America.
That Sad Result is the effect of having Uribe for 8 years.
The worst possible catastrophe in Colombian Legislative Elections.
The triumph of Criminals, Paracos, Narcos, Paramilitaries, The relatives of those processed by Justice and unable to present their names because of Indictments, Accusations and Judicialization.
OK, many people have been expelled and kicked out from the Colombian Congress for being Narcos, Mafia, Paramilitaries, Swindlers, Thieves, etc ...
But their brothers, sisters, spouses, sons, daughters, nephews, nieces, etc ... can present their names for Legislative Elections.
And they have been elected in great numbers, ( because of millions of dollars in narco dirty money ) ... These are all right wingers.
Meanwhile the honorable and decent people from the left or center did not win the election and are out of Congress.
People that have stolen public money, or given it to their relatives and friends get elected.
Very sad, extremely sad.
Colombia is the closest ally of the United States in Latin America.
