Nicaragua
Recent accounts about Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega freeing U.S. funds for poll monitors for the upcoming elections on Feb. 25 was indeed good news. By allowing the Bush Administration, handpicked U.S. members of Congress and the anti-Sandinista coalition (UNO) to monitor all polling places, Ortega has assured that the elections will be certifiable by the entire world and in the best interest of all Nicaraguan people.
Hopefully with this election members of Congress will be convinced enough that they stop all funding of the anti-Sandinista’s war effort so that peace will flourish once again and our brothers and sisters will begin to heal from all the hellish years of bloodshed.
