Rev. Aristide would not have lasted a week. Maxine Waters should shut the hell up and go back to working back room deals for druggies. The Castro Caucus makes me puke. They want to see Haiti stay a S*** hole? Apparently they do. They want Castro and his ilk to succeed and the people to suffer. It is time for common sense regarding Haiti. Waters and her gang have been absent on Haiti and helping the people. Let us see what can be done by this whitehouse.

Just caught a portion of Aristide on CNN. Said he would love to go to the US and explain his position.

The guy sounds like a professor I had in college that never made sense.

Gee...do we believe the Maxine Waters and other libs, or do we believe Rumsfeld. Yep...that's a real tough one....

You bet, Maxine Waters & Jesse Jackson's story vs. Colin Powell and Donald Rumsfeld's version. This is a no brainer unless you're a total idiot!

Aristide should be tried, found guilty, and executed for his attempt to end-around the Haitian constitution. But it should be the Haitians who do it.

Clinton and Carter forced Aristide's predecessor out of office. Not a peep from NPR about that.

oops. Forgot this part:
An African-American activist says Aristide told him on the phone Monday that he was kidnapped at gunpoint by American soldiers and ousted in a U.S. coup d'etat. Aristide said he was being held prisoner at the Renaissance Palace in Bangui, Central African Republic, said the activist, Randall Robinson. *

Nothing shows the toxic partisan hatred and corruption of the Black Democratic Caucus as much as their reaction to Aristide's ouster--unprincipled, anti-Democratic, totally unconcerned about the truth and the people of that benighted country, Haiti.

I always figured the liberal swine didn't appreciate anyone "keepin' da black man down."

I forgot. That only applies to whitey. Black dictators are perfectly free to brutalize, rape and murder other blacks with the blessings of "progressive" liberal piglets.

The problem with your theory is that the White House since George Washington have been trying to "do" something about Haiti. The most sustained effort was between 1915 and 1934 when U.S. troops continually occupied the country and engged in futile (what other kind is there?) nation building.

Other troops, who are already spread too thin, shouldn't be used in this way. They are for national defense not social work.

So, we are to believe that he is being held prisoner after some secret coup that our administration is trying to cover up, yet we let him make phone calls at will to tell the world about it. Oh, and by the way, does anyone know what the last bid was on E-Bay for the Brooklyn Bridge.
