Santo Domingo.- Vice President Margarita Cedeño de Fernández said last night that she did not go to the San Isidro Airforce Base airport to welcome President Danilo Medina on his return from Chile due to confusion about the President’s arrival time.

She said that the President’s office informed her that he would be arriving in the country at 11:30 at night, when Danilo Medina actually returned at 10:00 p.m. The president had been attending the European Union and Community of American States summit meeting in Santiago.

The vice president sent a message via her Twitter account welcoming President Danilo Medina to the country and apologizing for not being at the airport “because his office informed me that he was arriving at 11:30 p.m. I am here at the Palace where I will make a formal handover. I was waiting to leave for the airport. You know that this is my work schedule”.

Missed the arrival time!! Wasn’t she in charge of the very office that kept track of the President’s activities while he was away?

Surely Danilo can find his way home without the vice president ..It is a stupid idea to be hanging around an airport and maybe it is a good time to put an end to it ..It was a private plane and I am sure danilo is gracious enough not to take offence

I simply shows Margara, that you either have a hidden agenda, or you are incapable of the position you hold.

Put that incapable woman out of the palace, with the wussy Leonel.

KICK THAT PAIR OF NO GOOD IMBECILE OUT OF THE PALACE !!!!

Little Rickey is upset that the wife of his God is being exposed for the Idiot she is!

She F...s UP and then she informs the World via Twitter!

And to think this was Narco-Lie-onel's first Choice to be President!

Come on Rick...this is the first thing I have heard of her since the election. I heard a whole lot more when she was the first lady.

Bottom line...she...not the system...screwed up. Probably talking on Facebook and did not realize what time it was! LOL "Shyte....gotta run...I am late. Jesus Christ...they give me one thing to do and i screw it up...how stupid of me".

Two stupid Duminican traditions -
1) Vice-President needing to meet the President at the airport.
2) Always being late.

Roy,

What the the public does not understand it that there is a Cold War going on between the Medina and the Fernandez clans. Always remember Saint Danilo was Narco Lie-onel's second *correction* third choice to be president so they really despise each other but even pragmatic political détente doesn't last forever!

There is another possibility, that is not the obvious deduction than most are making.
What about if she wanted to milk, as much as possible her time in the palace as acting president?
I wonder what real powers does the VP have, while acting as president, when Medina is away.

Or maybe she was busy with the pool boy while Narco Lie-onel was on his way to Havana to act like a leftist!

What ever is up with that woman, she sure does not show the proper decorum for a vice president.

LEO and MARGARA want to be in the palace.

Bull Shix........... just like her husband.

The arrival time was informed wrong by Danilo's office., then the office manager should be fired right away.

I think Lie-onel suggested her not going to show that Lie-onel is the real leader of PLD.

As a Public Sevrice to the VP so she is not late for this appoitment!


Invitation

I would to invite to the symbolic trial that will take place today, Wednesday, January 30, by several organizations against Leonel Fernandez and the political committee of the PLD, in Duarte Park in Santiago, at 5 in the afternoon.

For those who feel the threatening planning flapping of tyranny over their heads.
It is an invitation addressed to those who are concerned for the country they are going to leave their children and those who feel that corruption and impunity must not have the endorsement of their silence.

The German phrase "Pünktlichkeit ist die Höflichkeit der Könige" ("Punctuality is the courtesy of kings") comes to mind. Clearly she is not royalty.

Better translation is:
Punctuality is the politeness of kings.
