Socialist Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero has ordered Spain’s official intelligence agency, the National Intelligence Center (CNI), to investigate whether the “Anglo-Saxon media” (aka English-language press) is conspiring to undermine the Spanish economy.

The media reveals the Spanish government’s dangerously excessive national debt and the Socialist blame the media with a racial ad homonen! Obama Administration employs the same tactic.

Paging Al Sharpton. Paging Al Sharpton.
Socialist Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero is trying to upstage you in race baiting, race hustling and in playing the victim.

Spain needs to man-up and tell the truth: They are in the position that they are because of their spending policies, social programs, and their version of Cap and Tax...you know, ‘going green’....

Franco lives! He (and DeGaulle) used to blame everything evil in the world on “the Anglo-Saxons.” Franco even used to root for Castro under the table. Some people can’t get over 1898 it seems.

Um, they do. Zapatero is “President of the Government” aka Prime Minister. Juan Carlos I is King of Spain.
