Only in my country -- anywhere else -- this inept ***would be fired. Like I always say, it's exhausting being a caring Dominican. Man! I've truly come to believe that my life was more enjoyable when I was less informed about these sinberguenzadas. I guess it's true when they say that ignorance is bliss. I guess that's also why most Dominican politicians are always so blissfully happy. Esos ****.
No quiero armar una polémica, amigos, pero sinceramente les invito a tomar un tiempo prudente antes de dirigirse de esta manera ante las personas que leemos este importante Diario. Los comentarios indecentes no afectan la imagen del aludido, sino del remitente, aún cuando no se da a identificar.
Seamos una generación mejor, por el amor de Dios. Si queremos que las cosas se hagan bien, al menos aportemos con el pequeño esfuerzo por decirlo de una manera apropiada, pues de lo contrario no tendría sentido.
Sinceramente,

Cristino: What you're suggeting is that we treat these so called leaders with a certain degree of deference merely because of their position. With all due respect, I disagree wholeheartedly. Apeasement as you suggest is what's made our political culture one of the most corrupt and inept in the world. I rather people call it as it is even if a couple crude words due inject themselves into the discussion.
