What a piece of shit the "Christian Science Monitor" has become!

Rafael Correa spoke the truth, in a rabs-reported radio show comment yesterday: "No one can make us submit."
Ecuador expels US ambassador
(Comment #36)
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4801729He was talking about the vastly changed political landscape of Latin America, where the leftist democracy movement has been so successful, and where it has created a new LATIN AMERICAN (as opposed to "Washington") CONSENSUS--regarding cooperation and solidarity among Latin American countries, their leaders and their peoples. Latin America is ASSERTING democracy, social justice and peace against a wall of fascism, militarism, war profiteering and corporate rape, asserted by the U.S. government. And this means "rough patches," indeed, for U.S.
bad intentions in Latin America.
The Christian Science Muddle is clueless about this democracy revolution, and what is worse, their view is cautious, "liberal"-sounding, CIA drivel (how the CIA "frames" things to get them into journals with a "liberal" rep). I canceled my subscription because of it (about five years ago). It is corpo-fascist propaganda dressed up in a tuxedo going to the opera.
And they are at their snotty, lame-brained, fake-liberal worst on Latin America.
