In reply to the discussion: If you speak Spanish, Evo Morales is speaking right now [View all]PufPuf23
(8,767 posts)110. Important thread.
I feel ill over what has occurred regards to Morales and Snowden and the reaction of the "Good -Democratic- Americans" at DU.
Recall the international support back when POTUS received the Nobel Peace prize, look at now (and we know things would be worse with more war and loss of credibility under the GOP) ?
But look at the loss of international credibility regardless.
My intuition is not anti-Obama. POTUS Obama is a small cog / large icon.
The Golden Rule: Do unto others as you wish they do unto you.
But also those who have the gold, make the rules.
Anti-imperialism and neo-liberalism.
