We had friends from Colombia with us last weekend (we used to live there), and they were very very pro-Uribe. He is absolutely no-nonsense on trying to make it a safer place. They say it's much better now than what it's been in years.
AND, by the way, this should never be indexed under "Columbia" since the country is COLOMBIA. Yes, I'm screaming.
Don't scream. It's a typo. We all make 'em from time to time. I'll see if I can correct it. If not, there are worse things...
A friend of mine is from Bogota. He's a college student and musician, typically idealistic and liberal, and even he thinks Uribe should be allowed to stay in office. Funny how those who aren't there think they can tell those who are what to do.
wher'd ya live there?
I spent a lot of time there myself and used to know one of the main paras in question....Victor Caranza of Muzo fame.
