Lady of 83, student of the British Constitution - stands alone against our TREAS

31-07-2007 23:56

The AP agency tells us what his opening words were: "Tenemos corazones grandes en este país" (We have big hearts in this country); he said this in Spanish in front of 250 representatives of private and religious groups, foundations and NGOs who had come to Washington with all expenses paid by his government...
