rain_gryphonThe Tubby Tyrant has gifted tractors to potato farmers. No word about any implements for them, and the farmers have to buy their own fuel. No phosphate fertilizer to be had anywhere either, since the fertilizer factory exploded four years ago and isn't yet repaired. Still, the lucky farmers are now expected to demonstrate their gratitude by reaping a record harvest.

It's annoying to me that Reuters (and other news sources as well) keeps calling what's happening in Haiti "protests". When you're shooting off guns, and setting buildings on fire, that's rioting, at the very least.
It's beyond annoying that while American taxpayers are being asked to pay for the Kenyan expedition (which was Haiti's idea), the Haitians themselves have 500 million dollars to pay Venezuela for petroleum products.
