In recent weeks has repeatedly broadcast a series of commercials that contradict some statements made by representatives of the Catholic Church on the constitution drafted ("Irony, irony?) In Montecristi. And yes, after seeing the advertising you wonder where is "the possibility" of abortion or marriage between couples of the same sex . The commercials end with a "Why do we lie? Why play with our religious values? "And while I do not think that there was a direct response to the concern, other voices have emerged calling it" Church pelucon "and graffiti on the same line. Consequences of bearing false witness against your neighbor, it seems.
Fernando Cordero also heard mention in his closing speech as one of the advantages of the new constitution can never again be allowed the death penalty. This sounds nice and is a relief to know that we will not have that penalty provided for in the legislation. It's a good reason to vote YES, except that.
Except in the constitution (sometimes) force, that of 98, the death penalty is prohibited. So one wonders if the Assemblyman had not distinguished taken the trouble to read what was so urgent to change (very serious for someone who was chairman of the Assembly) or whether outright and blatantly lie. What would be worse? And I have not seen angry voices demanding "Why do we lie? Why j uegan with our humanitarian values? "
On Saturday 23 August took place a heavy concentration in Shyris Avenue, Quito, to promote voting yes on the new constitution, and incidentally, the "transition regime" that will award a couple of months to pay proud and sovereign to former Assembly members. There were rock bands, hip-hop, salsa, though lacking the Wrath of Bucaram or tecnocumbieras Gutierrez. They came, yes, some prominent government officials, so read on the website of the Presidency to public officials " are prohibited from participating in election campaign for the referendum " leaves one confused. Can or not public officials to campaign? Or it depends on which option to guide this campaign?
Before his arrival was broadcast chain by the President of the Republic this time from LumbisÃ. The President criticized the students during his speech the previous week had caused riots at the University of Guayaquil. He spoke against "daddy's little children, against those who throw" stones, sticks, chairs, bottles, and asking "let's leave the bitterness, violence, hatred of the defeated." Questioned the use of violence and said it makes the oligarchy because "you can not argue with ideas." I was fine.
A little later there was a large group of militants of the MPD. I thought you were there to criticize the President's message to defend their right to use violence as a means of defending their ideals, and to say no is that they can not argue with ideas is that a true revolutionary expresses through its rifle. But no! They were campaigning for the YES, the new homeland, and of course, for socialism. And here is another inconsistency. MPD Not a group that has been characterized, and not from yesterday, to use violence in their protests? Why now accept them as allies and not criticized his known history? Unless, and this would be very serious, consider that violence is good to defend the ideals of the citizen's revolution but not the oligarchy, the "left" but not the "right." Would like to consider, I'll say anything, sometimes violence may not be legal ... but it is legitimate. In fact, consider asking some of the characters on the stage of this organization if they had realized that the President was criticizing the hard but had to fire through a classic strike, the numerical superiority, and preferred to spend long. The light above, seemed to send a message:
Or perhaps that there been a subliminal message of the author of this blag. Or maybe just had to take it so seriously. In any case, here it could be argued that this is manipulation, double standards, inconsistencies, confusing the cat's tail with one leg or some other trick sadly common among our politicians ever. But in a leaflet distributed at the concentration found several statements that blatantly missing the truth. It is more shocking than the first thing you read is "honest citizens finally got the power" (forgot the citizens) and then have this whole list of lies. Here is a picture of the flyer in question. As blag playful element of count 5 points for every lie found and 10 per lack of spelling, punctuation or grammar, take the total and who gets the most points wins.
Meanwhile, we are losing all this kind of campaign.
Note: You may, under certain point of view, considering that they are not lies, if the Government has decided that if NO gain withdraw subsidies and remove the bonus development. But in that case we have something worse, blackmail, buying votes in the style of Alvaro Noboa. None of this is typical of the honest citizens mentioned in the steering wheel.
