Scam O'Rama Muppets:
Don Winner a/k/a Donnie Wanker (left)
and Marc Boswell a/k/a Rex Freeman (right)
Oh, and in the background: All Clinton's
work, according to Freeman/Boswell
Time for some good old fashioned wild west fun. Remember Ian Calvert Bleasdale? No? Child sex rapist on the run. Turned up as sales director of mega noni swindle in Panama which Don Winner of course defended. Story here. Also wanted for fraud in Costa Rica and that's what did him in. A couple of his victims just a sort of nabbed him in Panama and handed him over to the police and he was swiftly thrown over the border into the Costa Rican slammer, where he belonged. The end? No. Well, for him, yes, but now we have a similar case. Scam artist on the lam. Buys residency despite criminal convictions. Trouble in Costa Rica where he continued to scam before moving to a welcoming Panama. Becomes Don Winner's drinking buddy and financial columnist. Well, not for long, sucker! Because there is an Arrest Warrant! Panama doesn't want to enforce its laws? No problemo! It's only a matter of time before his victims hunt him down and throw him in a van headed for Costa Rica. Yes we can! Bye, Rex! We would appreciate a tip though when it goes down, for the pics. Oh, and Don Winner? We think that one more case like this and he's toast too. You can't just run a full-fledged pimp-a-scam and expect there won't be repercussions. Bye, Don!

Real estate alert! Remember Red Frog Beach Club? Trouble with SUNTRACS, trouble with environmentalists, trouble with the authorities, land disputes. Result: Virtually no work is being done and the project is basically dead. As in: Will never be finished. Next? Of course there is a next. Isla Viveros, in the Las Perlas archipelago.
Votes for sale

Totally unexpected news from within the PRD that has caught us by surprise and off guard. They're having internal elections. A bit like what's going on in the US, but here they keep everything under the hood. Why? Well, because nobody needs to stick his nose into how these things are done in the Democratic Revolutionary Party.
Or, in other words, allegations of vote buying are flying back and forth. Balabina may rank high in national polls, but she hasn't won any of the mini-congresses the PRD is organizing all over the country. A candidate who came to Chiriqui with a 30 vote advance left having lost by 27 votes.
And now the vice-president of this political pawn shop, Luis Navas, is making public statements about it! How totally un-PRDish! Must be Chavez paying him. There's also talk about a government police patrol boat flying a PRD flag in Kuna Yala. Chavez again.
Where's "Mike from Texas"?

Remember La Terraza, that sleazy cockroach and rat infested shithole on Via Veneto? Right, where Colombian working girls and Washington lobbyist whores hang out when they're not being banged by McCain. Well. Mike from Texas, the owner, has left the building, or so we hear, and it's not because his tourist visa expired. Something with legal problems in the US. Something with financial crimes. They say he's now in Venezuela, no doubt looking for donations from Chavez to start a socialist fugitive bar owners union. Neat, huh? And guess who promoted him? Yep, ANOTHER one!
