I’m not a fan of FOX television; unfortunately it’s this crap we get on our Brazilian television next to the Brazilian crap while i miss Arte, BBC, TF1 and even VRT. This morning O Globo opened withe first page with Brazilian president Lula on his latest corruption scandal: “Lula se compara a Christo e diz que ganha no 1° turmo”. I’ve told it before and I’ll repeat it, what Brazil lacks is class. The Class of a Sérgio Marone stating in an personal interview that (1) his most beautiful woman is Natalie Portman (1) his most beautiful man is Alain Delon and (3) that his primary source of sadness is the upcoming Brazilian elections. And admitted, the Brazilian presedential elections are sad. The fact is that the corruption scandals and gangsterism involving the politicians of every party are not ending. Recently, a journalist, Fernando Rodrigues, conducted an investigation in which he showed that in four years, the politicians had managed to increase their own personal wealth by nearly 90 percent (sic). The PT government has shown itself to be the same or worse than all that occurred during this period under Sarney, Collor and Fernando Henrique. The problem is: there is no alternative. No new consistent project has emerged, either from the left or the right; and Brazil needs it so desperately. The few smart people realise that even Alckmin is no option. The only option left is a blank ballot. Luckily, according to recent polls conducted by the DataFolha institute, the campaign for a blank ballot has grown more than any other tendency since the last election, with popular support for it increasing 500 percent in relation to the election of 2002.
And meanwhile I watch this interview on Fox with ex American president Clinton. I especially like the part where he kicks the crap out of Fox with “You’ve that little smark on your face, you think you’re so clever”. So what, he had his dick sucked, but comon, do you think Lula has a monagamic relation with this wife? Comon.
Check out the reactions on Clinton’s appearance on Fox: class ! The world needs no less. I hope enough Brazilians will have the class to vote blank next weekend.
