We have two problems in Panama:
1. Panama doesn’t have the resources to maintain a force in the Darién. So guess who will have to eventually mop up this problem? The United States.
2. Worse, President Moscoso and her government are extremely corrupt. They only care about their own power and all the illegal money they can make while in office. They don’t care about “el pueblo.” The people are just incidental if not a nuisance…Get a load of the following which I’m reading from a newspaper article in front of me (La Prensa). The Panamanian government sent a delegation of 1 to the above conference in Miami. The woman sent to represent Panama is from the Panamanian National Security Council and attended NONE of the sessions. I happen to know what Panamanians do when they go to Miami. They spend all their time shopping. This is how much these so called Panamanian patriots (that’s what they like to call themselves) care about Panama.
I see my computer is playing tricks. I think there is a plot afoot to drive me to the madhouse.
I sympathize with the barkeep who the other day shot his computer dead. Where's my shotgun?
