August 28, 2015
Listeners to Radio Metropole, this morning, heard an unusual broadcast that really sounded like an admission, on Ambassador White’s part, that the August 9, 2015 elections were a disaster and something should be done.
Well, OK, it was an admission that the August 9 elections were a disaster, couched in Politically Correct phrases that really outlined a disaster, that could have been avoided, had she not been in bed with the Martelly’s..
The cynics suggest that this phrase could be interpreted in at least 2 ways.
Well, let’s include pragmatists.
OK, some realists, too.
All of this after she gave a knee-jerk reaction, immediately after the polls had closed, and no results calculated – murders uncounted – human rights abuses yet to be fully reported, opposition complaints posted – that the election was a smashing success.
We would never have heard of BOUCLIER – a political party sponsored by drug-dealers, kidnappers, money-launderers, murderers and assorted other flawed people.
Very good but I am not optimistic.
History has a habit of repeating itself in Haiti.
Our ambassador has been a vulgar embarrassment.
