Aristide To Give News Conference Monday - Official

[I AM SPARTACUS]

Aristide is due to give a news conference at midday (1100 GMT) on Monday in the capital of Central African Republic, government officials in Bangui said.

"Yes, it will be with Aristide," a government official said when asked about a planned news conference on Monday.

Aristide, a former Roman Catholic priest who became a champion of Haiti's impoverished masses when he helped overthrow the brutal Duvalier family dictatorship in 1986, was ousted by a bloody revolt that killed more than 200 people.

Aristide has not appeared in public since his arrival in the impoverished African nation on March 1. However, from his exile Aristide has claimed he was kidnapped by U.S. forces

1. I dare anyone to say that they will be 'splaining to him

his two young children in the States will be in a bit of jeopardy, if he doesn't repudiate everything he has told many people in positions of responsibility already.

_Bush has brought the country to the lowest, and shabbiest level anyone could EVER imagine.

Aristide, with wife, needs an Elián styled rescue, and _Bush should leave office soon.

2. Look at this unacceptable message buried in the article:

Aristide's wife attended a news conference on Sunday where Foreign Minister Charles Wenezoui read out a message from the exiled leader saying he had been well-treated in Bangui. His wife, Mildred Aristide, was not allowed to speak to the media.

Central African authorities have expressed annoyance that Aristide has repeatedly accused the United States of forcing him from office in phone calls to friends and the media.

EVERYTHING about this is bogus.

I wrote in another thread that I heard CNN overnight saying the reporters received word that Mrs. Aristide would be giving a statement, and went to the roomm to cover it. She was not permitted to speak, as the door flew open, government security forces barged in, disconnected tv camera lights, etc., and read an announcement that she would not be speaking, and that her husband would release a statement within the next 72 hours.

WILL ALL OUR REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS ENDORSE THIS ULTRA-VIOLENT COUP?

Surely they're not ALL that evil.
