Recently, we were told that the USA has decided to stop the importation of tuna fish, later we find out that certain companies don’t get awarded this or that contract in punishment of the pre-Irak behavior and for ’letting down’ the USA. One of the most disgusting behaviors seen during the pre-war days was the…

The USA has no credibility left in the world, in choosing the path of superior strength it has squandered the remaining moral status it had after WWII. Thanks of course to George W Bush who is by far the leading right wing hawk of the world and its fascist allies. I don’t even know how…

Kelvin Rodriguez con Dick Cheney and wife … in medias res Bien reza el dicho que dice que la pobreza es la madre de la invención, y de eso semos bien ricos los mexicanos. ’e nomás de tomar en cuenta dos ejemplos que lo demuestran. Por allá a principios de Enero salió la noticia de…
