31. Not if your Haitian. American coup, kidnapping Aristide? REMEMBER?
Cheee-rist. Just six short weeks ago.

No one seems to remember or mention this. As if it never happened because our focus is totally on Iraq.

Just a few hours away from our borders, the US armed thugs with 20,000 new M16s next door in the Dominican Republic and encouraged them to kill and terrorize their way across Haiti.

The private US security corporation that supplied a security force to democratically-elected Aristide was told by the US gov't to stand down.

US helicopters flew in and Marines told Aristide he was going to a press conference and instead kidnapped him with his US citizen wife and whisked them away to the Central African Republic where they were kept in captivity while violent terror swept through Haiti.

AND DUMBYA TALKS OF BROWN-SKINNED DEMOCRACY??!!
