... Colombia has been turned into a sad place by the Uribe regime if this person continues to be smeared simply for promoting dialogue. That's bascially the only critique made against this woman, that she prefers dialogue to more bloodbaths. Colombia is reminding me more and more of the US right before the Iraq war. At least Santos came in at #5. |

... 1) There was a poll that Colombians were among the happest people in South America : ) 2) President Uribe has been the most popular president in Colombia has made the country safer. 3) Colombia's are not so foolish as to trust anyone who supports terrorist (the FARC) and by her support Pediad shows her approval for thier methods that that have caused Colombia so much suffering 4) There are real opposition parties (that do not support terrorism) that the people are free to support and that they do with there votes, unlike in Venezuela Even chickens knows NOT to trust a wolf!!! |
