Let me see if I undertsand this correctly. The pres of haiti get kidnapped by "white" americans, while being kidnapped he picks up a phone and calls maxine?

"I'm a captive, but they gave me a cell phone!"

Feh.

Or as my wife put it - "If he's been kidnapped, and he's got a shot at one phone call, he picks HER?"

This smells real bad.

Aristide isn't going to get back his power - he is gone for good this time. All he can do is to try to make life difficult for Bush. And that is eaily done with the state of the present media.

If anything, this could be a lot worse. Aristide could be dead, and then we have a martyr.
