JAMES BOND FILMING GETS OUT OF HAND

By The Boss on Feb 15, 2008 | In Important Global Newsbreak | 1 feedback »

PANAMA CITY AND COLON COME TO A HALT AS VIOLENT MASS SCENES CONTINUE

President Martin Torrijos is under increasing pressure to just forget about this whole idea of movies being shot in Panama as for the third day on a row public life came to a screeching halt in both Panama City and Colon.

"We've lost control," a nervous Torrijos admitted after a third day of smoke machines and police cars driving up and down the streets at high speeds. Filming of the Bond movie was to be limited to the surroundings of the presidential palace, but the movie crew has taken control of the city as a whole.

• • Hugo Torrijos! Corrupto! Hugo Torrijos! Corrupto! Hugo Torrijos! Corrupto!

    What to do when a retarded member of Panama's royal presidential family, the blood thirsty and utterly corrupt Torrijos dynasty, is caught in yet another corruption and nepotism scandal while running the campaign of candidate Balabina Herrera?

  • Petaquilla Stock Now Affordable to the Poor

    Some people say that Petaquilla Minerals, famously known for its Petaquilla mining project in Panama, is a bad company that destroys the environment, chases indigenous tribes off their ancestral lands and violates human rights. A sort of a modern day United Fruit.

  • Transparency International Stands By Fake Report

    Of course you won't read about this in the Panamanian press, but Corruption Transparency International did not just publish a fake report, authored by a military coup plotter, about the Venezuelan oil company PDVSA, but they continue to defend and distribute knowingly false information, reveals Calvin Tucker:

  • Balabina fist-deep in CEMIS

    More proof that Panamanian politicians are, with few exceptions, nothing but corrupt sleazeballs. In the CEMIS case file sits this piece of paper on which Stephen Jones dotted down how the bribes for the project were to be distributed. And guess who we find? Balbina Herrera, presidential candidate for the Piñadistas.

  • Last Moments of the NarcoCopter

    Here it is: We found video of the last moments of the helicopter that Jimmy Carter gave to Omar Torrijos and that was used by Noriega to fly drug kingpins around the country before Torrijos jr. used it to fly Chilean policemen for shopping trips to Colon. They only forgot to maintain it properly, so it crashed.

  • Why Bimbin Can't Win

    Fun, fun, fun, these primaries in the PRD. The funniest part is actually these yeye kids, the crowd that rallies behind Juan Carlos Navarro. They really believe that after 10 years of doing nothing as mayor of Panama City the electorate will reward this nitwit with 5 years of doing nothing as president of the country.

  • Born to be Wild

    When we first got wind of the story that the next mayor of Panama City Miguel Antonio Bernal had acquired a motorcycle, we feared that a looming midlife crisis had gone unnoticed by relatives and friends and thus the Bananama Republic news gathering unit was immediately dispatched at the scene where, reports had it, the famous human rights activist would arrive on the new vehicle.

  • Panama vs Journalism - Mounting Support for Eric Jackson

    Real estate developer Sam Taliaferro is urging his readers to support Eric Jackson, the publisher of The Panama News, who is facing criminal prosecution under Panama's antiquated "crimes against the honor" laws. A court date has been set for August 20th this year to deal with charges based on a complaint by one Marc Boswell.

  • Chileans Don't Buy Torrijos Helicopter Crap

    Omar Torrijos continues to be a source of inspiration for our rogue leaders. Martin recalls on every possible occasion how painful it was when Omar's plane fell out of the sky. The implicit message is of course that since Martin never even had the balls to investigate the death of his own father, these pesky Chileans better forget completely about any serious investigation into that helicopter crash.

  • Torrijos (F)lying Circus

    Of course our beloved government is handling the crash of the helicopter professionally and quickly went into full spin and lying mode.
