Today President Lula addressed thousands of activists in social movements in Brazil, and through them millions more across the globe. And he got jeered by the impatient. You'll get that. We live in the time of soundbytes. & translators. & interpreters. & thinktanks. & billionaire philanthropist pacifists with major stock in arms corps and undeclared interests in narcotic routes and the fine post-graduates who work for them spinning tissues of deceit and benovelance. read full story / add a comment
