Default President Aristide speaks for himself in these interviews

Hello to everyone I am new to this forum but I have checked some of the post and did not see any topic on Haiti and Mr. Aristide so I thought some might find these audio interviews interesting to hear.

After you get to the site and click on the link it will start to download into your computer, you can then listen to in anytime on or off line.



It has been a historic 48 hours. Haitian President Jean-Bertrand Aristide has defied Washington, returning to the Caribbean. He is now in Jamaica, just 130 miles or so from his native Haiti. This comes two weeks after Aristide said he was taken by force to the Central African Republic in what was a US-orchestrated coup.

Aristide is pretty much considered to be mentally off, so to speak. Few people really believe he was taken a gunpoint by force. He had lost complete control of his country and would have been killed shortly had the U.S. not saved him.

I didn't go to the sites you link. But are they liberal sites?

Thanks bread, democracy now! is a great media source (imho).

JP5--I would say that it is an honest source. To some people, that may equate to liberal.

Thanks! It's always a pleasure for me to provide information that I believe others may not have, even though it would seem that you are an informed person.

Never judge a book by its cover and not every thing a person says about someone is always true. Why not check it out hear the man for yourself what do you have to lose? You will then be in a better position to judge.

Since you are familiar with it, and since you claim it is "fair".....then when is the last time a POSITIVE article about Pres. Bush appeared on the site? And what was the title of it....because I'd like to read it.

Because....as you know....a "fair" website or media source will have articles that are pro and con on BOTH sides. So, can you furnish one from that site?

Default Okay, I Checked it Out

Breadfruit says...."Never judge a book by its cover and not every thing a person says about someone is always true. Why not check it out hear the man for yourself what do you have to lose? You will then be in a better position to judge. "

Okay, I checked it out for myself. And it's just as I suspected: just another anti-war, leftist type website. The only position I saw taken on the site is of the far left.

Well you said that you checked it out I'll take your word for it, and I don't know if that mean you have listened to the interview. But I will say a couple of things. 1. War is not a good thing: it could be that you have never been a victim war or seen it up close. 2. You seem to be blinded by your intense dislike for as you call it "leftist type website".

I do not subscribe to any group left, far left, right, far right or any other group that anyone can name. I am far more interested in the truth and being of different opinion/belief does not discredit the person. I look for credibility and I have found that radio station to be far more credible than all the Corporate Media that I have ever listened to.

We should be critical thinkers and cast away blind faith and the belief that a person as far as what he/she believe can be put in a box so to speak. Do you believe that all people on the right always agree on all things? Do you believe that the left always agree on all things? You will never find anybody no mater where in the world you go who always agree on every things.

So this idea of left, right or centre is just plain silly all humanbeings are free to think and have unlimited opinion the same way no two people are every exactly alike.

So the website is credible because they don't just tell the listeners this or that, they often more than not step aside and let the person speak for themselves unlike most media. They interview people who are of differing opinions.

But anyway thankfully what you believe is just your opinion and has no effect on what I know and have proven for my self over the many years. But I hope that you will be jaded and believe that everything that I post is coming from the far left or far right.

There is very little good that one can say about Bush's actions from the election to this day. In fact most people in Texas where he was Governor did not have much good (big business love him) to say about him.

Bush has told so many lies it's beyond me why some people believe he is credible. So far I have not been wrong about the things that he have said when he was saying them, that is he is lying.

They are fair because I have learnt a lot of things that is going on in America that the corporate media don't report on or is afraid to. I have seen and learn from them that most of the criticism that the U.S. does against other Nations it too is just as guilty. The difference is that when they are mentioned one is called anti American. I always find it interesting that it's not anti Soviet to criticise the Soviet or Iran, Iraq or any other Nation that the U.S. loves to bash. But as soon as one starts to mention America’s crimes you are immediately called anti American.

This kind of attitude reminds me of idolatry you know say all you want about me and to me but don't you ever criticise my god. Anyway I will be adding my 2 cents from time to time and I hope my position on this or anything that I post cause you to have preconceive notions. Because we may disagree does not mean we should not listen to each other.

Well, then listen when I tell you that I am from Texas. In fact, I am a 5th generation Texan and most of us loved George W. Bush while he was Governor....and even more so as president. He was the first Republican Governor in 25 years in Texas and the first to EVER be re-elected for a second term. He won by an overwhelming majority. So, you see......you really DON'T have all the facts as you pretend to.

I'm not against criticism of our government. I do a fair amount of that myself. That's one of those great things about our country. You can criticize without getting your tongue cut out or worse. But I am not part of the "Blame American First" crowd here who seeks to blame their country for everything bad that happens. America does a lot of good in the world. Something that certain people seem to forget. I'm proud of my country....America. My family came here in 1622.....way before this country became independent. I have ancestors who have fought in each and every war, including the war in Europe.....WWII, where the U.S. saved the world from Hitler. Yes, other countries were involved. But that war would not have been won had it not been for the U.S. So, what kind of Europe do you think there would be today......had we not done so?

BTW, you are NOT an American, are you?
