The clerks told him to " Keep your hands clapping when youre in the corner and we cant see you " because they have a big problem with shop lifters

When will he announce that the NYU Bookstore is planning on opening a refinery here?

We are gettin in bed with Venezuela and Libya. How long before we are sucking up to Iran and North Korea?

I guess the rightful title "Honorary President" fits Mr. Leonel Fernandez well for all his jobs. LOL.

Photo 2 caption ...........Hey chickee wanna go for a ride in the limo

Next, the village there's a nice gay bar on 12th- Queenie

That was a cheap shot about the gay bar Basta {not that there is anything wrong with that}

It is good to see that the President is a person who is interested in books and is not just going to parties all the time :

or traveling around getting his picture taken with a bunch of losers......thank God for that

The privilege LIE-onel Fernandez and the PLD deny the majority of Dominicans back home, because education is not their priority. And for those who have books they can only read during daylight ours because electricity is also not one of our top ten concerns.

The little intellectual professorial image is wearing thin Mister Presidente, like that cheap gray suit you are wearing all the time, the Dominican mass are beginning to see threw both of them!

josean
Now be nice josean, if he was wearing a Brioni or Armani suit, then he would be criticized for being a show off. LOL.
At least he is modest wearing the latest "J.C. Penney remember East Germany" fashion statement.LOL.

Oh, please. Have him look up "Zero Tolerance".

Damn, empty suit.

Now...the question is...is it his money paying for the books?

g,

Empty and worn around the crotch, knees and elbows!

This sickens me.

Why doesn't the US media get into his tenure.

They would expose this fool and all his cronies.

I'd pay double for a book about "LF, the empty suit, that thought he was somebody."

g,

How about "LIE-onel Fernandez, the has been, that never was and never will be!"

I can see why Dominicans are not considered worth of respect, it is not because of President Fernández, but because of people like you guys. Please read all your posts, and you will see how trashy most of your writings are. There are a few contributors to this forum that seem to have some dignity and circumspection. This crass behaviour is shameful and disgusting. Please, let's stop being so shallow and uncouth. Show that you are better than the president that you so ardently ridicule.

Amber,

And how much is your monthly botella?

hear hear

Speaking of botellas!

Amber we seem to have hit a nerve...Quote "I can see why Dominicans are not considered worth of respect, it is not because of President Fernández, but because of people like you guys " many Dominicans are worthy of respect and some are not .Stop taking your self so seriously and direct your frustrations at the political corruption in your country .and yes transparency has improved under Lionel but it has far to go

Why is this news that he is in a bookstore, is it owned by a Dominican?

Josean you get paid by the word and are a political hack of the left.......admit it

Dominicans are not respected because of postings on an internet web site, but rather for allowing this Charlatan you defend and the criminals in the PLD to waste $750,000,000 dollars on a METRO to nowhere; while kids have, no schooling, electricity, health care or decent chance at future other than risking their lives in El Canal de La Mona trying to escape his METROLANDIA paradise.

So please spare me your indignation at the attacks on this bum and show some for his victims the Dominican masses!

I don't have a botella, I have never worked in the Domiican Republic. I'm not defending the president, but the office that he holds should be treated with more respect. Yes. I'm very disgusted by the way several of you behave. This is a public forum and, I assume, it's read by many. We can critique, but we don't have to be so low and trashy. Show some class, please

Our country's men, women and children are dieing everyday, figuratively and literally, from the policies of these gangsters and you are concerned about "the office he holds!" Please get your priories straight before you come here to lecture others on decency.

Then again PLDers don't understand what priorities are if they did they would not have built a METRO!

It is LIE-onel Fernandez who has disrespected the office of the Dominican Presidency , with the Sunland Loan, (still unaccounted for), the METRO, article 30 of the constitution putting women's rights back into the stone age, pardoning criminals who almost bankrupted the country, and allowing criminals and drug lords to take over the country.

Chupase esas en lo que te mondo las otras!

Metro in DR another useless infrastructure project created in a third world country by the international gangsters to bleed that country. Can somebody please explain to me the term of this deal. Does the DR government own the Metro, or is this one of those deal where the builder have a long term lease on the project ,but the Government have to make up for shortfall in annual revenue projections?

or traveling around getting his picture taken with a bunch of losers......thank God for that= first place he/it is the loser and as for god= bullshit Voodoo

Amber take note Josean always shows class most of it low but he shows it

Dear Amber,,you must give these people some credit ,,If it was their intent to drive away from the board all the other people who may be more temperate,more tolerant and more respectful and less abusive , then , in fact , they are doing a very good job,
I also was worried what people reading this board in other countries may think of all the trash thrown at the president , the church , any one who succeeds ,of the tourist industry ,of the police force , but I now believe that most people are aware that the trash is not representative of the general Dominican behaviour.

Ricky Romana thrills with this, probably written from the 8th hole at Teeth of the Dog

i also was worried what people reading this board in other countries may think of all the trash thrown at the president

what you need to worry about is all the trash the president throws at the people. like the Metro, and everything Dean Josean has listed. you see, some of us are different than you, Ricky. we are the guys who do not let anyone pee on our legs and tell us that it is rain. and, as for the guy who said we should respect the office of the president; i do not respect abstractions. i respect, or disrespect, the people holding the titles. that is why i abhor Hitler, and Somoza, and others.

Gay comments always get your attention, I wounder why ? Did you tell me your kids where adopted?
Didn't you tell me you spent HOT summer nights with Leonel ?

Chill I am not a homophobe like you and most Latinos but dont worry Jamaicans are even worse Your fear that deep down you may be a queer causes you a lot of trepidation Stop worrying come out of the closet ......Like sienfeld says " Not that there is anything wrong with that "

correction, Enrico. all British caribbean nationals are homophobic. it is a trait taught to them by their old colonial masters, who, ironically are some of the worst of homosexuals.

Come come Dread you are a liberal lefty .......worst homosexuals .....that is a value you have placed on antiman.....Liberal mantra " Not that there is anything wrong with that "

i know whereof i speak. i attended a boarding school, and there were numerous English teachers there. they almost engaged in fistfights for the rights to be shower monitor.

Dread you of all people should refrain from stereotypical remarks ......Granted your youthful adventures in buggery in boarding school should not be disseminated for the board ......maybe another thread on the forum .....although the English seamed to have acquired the mantle I refuse to propagate a stereotype and ethnic slur .....abc should be expert in this category we shall ask for his thoughts

CC:

A president with lack of fortitude !

Excellent for speeches but that's all !

Dominican Republic deserves a president like Lula, Uribe, Etc. a real
patriot, nationalistic Dominican president without fear !

Rubi whats happening ? where have you been ? Go Rangers

I am certainly very glad that our President was in a NY book shop and not at the meeting on the Venezuelan island of Margarita with Chavez, Gaddafi, Mugabe ,Morales from Bolivia and Fernadez from Argentina ..that really would have been an issue .

Comrade Bob was there with Kadafi Duck and Nutty Hugo.....josean you should have attended

maybe, Ricky Romana, you should start an initiative to force the president to extract the DR from Petrocaribe, since you hold Chavez in such disdain. then, maybe your "progress" would be arrested, what with having to buy oil on the spot market, like many unfortunate countries. talk about ungrateful and childish!

EnriccoRizo:

Going to Canada in a week (Halifax which is my favorite canadian city and then Toronto)

Go Maple leafs !

I have rabia antileonelosis
You have rabia antileoneonisis
He /She has rabia antileonelosis
We have rabia antileonelosis
They have rabia antileonelosis


someone who suffers from rabia anitleonelosis has already published 5, 561 anti Leonel posts . guess who ?
I wil give you a hint, name starts with j

Enrico I am not homophobic... I don't care what you and Walter Marcado do!!!!

chill we know for sure we are never going to find you in a book store

Actually only 5,514, (as of this posting) but probably math wasn't one of your best subjects either, like reading and writing.

However, I am honored you have read them all; maybe the most reading you have done in your life and you may even learn something!

you should know with exactitude since your political hack friends and handlers on the left pay you by the words you drivel and spew

Friday evening, the 25th I actually saw El Presidente, his motorcade of five vehicles heading towards the west side hwy (heading to the 'heights ?) There he was in a large SUV, window down looking out the window. Didn't realize it was him until I saw the other cars with the Dominican flag on the front and rear windows.

more book stores in DR?

more book stores in DR?

Lionel, You corrupt !! You don't need the latest book in town to get wisdom. Just read Aristotle from 2400 years ago. That will give better ideas on how to govern our country in a moral, and ethically manner.

I thought that the majority of Aristotle's writings are now lost and only one of his original work have survived ,so willmo which part of his writings have you read ??????

Now what in God's name did Goulet Dobbs Rizzo do now?

EnricoRIZZO are you writing from Oso Blanco prison? you must be a very dangerous prisoner!

Uribe what, are you kidding?

Enrico yo creo es pato, nothing personal is yes the way you express your self over este medio!

To etiennc01:
My point was that the best ideas are not found on the latest 2009 books on politics. They can also be found on all books from antiquity, from which most of the concepts we use nowadays come from.
Leonel want to impress by pretending to buy books as if he were going to buy a car.
Books from Aristotle: :"Nichomachean Ethics"; "Politics" you can take a look at y our library.

all you children need to grow up.

WOW, I hope the Mr. Fernandez pulled the United Nation's volume published by UNICEF where is clearly show how illiterate the Dom. Rep. is compared to other Island nations in the caribbean. Also, I hope that he was able to read the fact that he only funded the entire country's schools a mere $140 million for 2 million students, which comes about $1,400 a year, figure that cuba, country under an embargo multiply by 6. You are an embarassment to the educated Dominicans residing in the U.S. and know that if they were back they would have never been able to acquire such education since the government does not care. How dare you visit a library when you do not provide one with the caliber of NYU's in the entire Island. My little brother has been studying abroad at Havana University and the kid is simply impressed with their services and facilities. This guy is not my president, maybe one day someone will care for the poor and provide decent health and solid education.

dagtan,

You have said it all:

" You are an embarassment to the educated Dominicans residing in the U.S. and know that if they were back they would have never been able to acquire such education since the government does not care."

In DR. Education is for the rich. The Public education system is a joke. The public university is very cheap as far as cost compaired to the USA. Most people go into business for them self because when you work for most companies they pay you so low. This country is geared to the rich and the poor work for a place to sleep and some food. You could work all your life and still have nadda. The people who try to get in to business have a hard time to get a loan at the bank and when they do the interest rate is so high. Here in new york we have so many hard working Dominicans that go back to the DR. to build homes and support there families.

mrweepa, not only do the poor have a hard time getting a business loan, but, if they plan a business to compete head to head with the rich, they will learn the true meaning of intimidation.

mrweepa1,

You’re ON THE MONEY WITH YOUR COMMENT AS WELL. It is amazing how many people try to distort the truth about the REAL Dominican reality under the guise of any critique is an attack on the country! Those who deny the truth only fool themselves and are the ones who real hurt the country by allowing the criminal politicians to continuing with the farce.
