If you get a chance, be sure to read the book "All the Trouble in The World" by P.J. O'Rourke. It has a whole chapter on Haiti, including a great summary of their political history.
This was one of Clinton's "wins" wasn't it ?
Ah! That Clinton "legacy" just keeps on giving--
Yes, he marched right in there, threw out a pro-western government and installed a Marxist. I guess the Haitians haven't learned to appreciate their fantastic good fortune.

Send Clinton to Haiti ...only if we can send Wee Jimmy with him...
( We called him that here in Georgia "because he was like a real Governor, only smaller...")

The aerial view of Hispanola is striking; the Dominican Republic is quite heavily forested.
The 'rats will try to portray both the political and environmental disaster that is Haiti as being caused by GWB and the evil corporations. The lapdog media will accept this version uncritically.

The world would be a much better place w/OUT Aristide and Arafat. The PCers will no doubt consider this statement a hate crime.

I don't know if there is a solution to Haiti's problems.
