The Day of the Witch

I am prepared to receive some hate mail for what i am about to write, so here I go.

Today is Halloween, also known as 'Dia das Bruxas' in Brazil. Well they have elected a witch in Brazil and her name is Dilma Roussef.

There, I said it.

WHY? JE NE COMPREND PAS.
JE SUIS FRANCAISE.
CAR, NOUS EN FRANCE, ON A ENCORE BEAUCOUP DE MAL A ELIRE UNE FEMME A LA TETE D'UN PAYS.

CORDIALEMENT

Elle est une sourciere parce qu'elle va installer un government extremement gauche et va continuer le corruption ridicula que marquer le regne du Lula. Ce n'est pas parce que c'est une femme. C'est le partie politique.....

Mais la corruption est toujours la même? C'etait la même chôse quand FHC était président... triste, mais néanmoins vrai. Le fait est que le Brésil s'est beaucoup amelioré, en particulier quand il s'agit de l'économie et des questions sociales.

Sorry, I think I've exhausted all my French... anyway, Dilma is far more of a centrist than a leftist, and from my experience living in Brazil (grew up there, only recently moved to the US), the vast majority of corruption, cronyism and demagoguery comes from the so-called right wing. I'm sorry, but I could never stand behind a group of politicians who were either part of, or supported a military dictatorship. As much of a cock-up as the left wing are, you will find it three-fold on the right.

Just my personal opinion, of course, this is your personal blog and you're entitled to your own opinion... I love the blog, by the way, makes me homesick at times. Seattle can be so dreary...
