Get this! This man is a huge ally of the Bush Administration and the US and yet few Americans know him. Here is a bit of his amazing resume:
He’s destroying terrorism, installing free markets, and creating a new nation out of one of the world’s worst hellholes on a scale unseen almost anywhere else in the world. The stock market has gone up 500% since he’s taken office. The debt has been repaid early, the peso is soaring, the jobless rate is tumbling, investment both foreign and domestic has gone through the moon and confidence and optimism is returning. Crime has evaporated. The country reported exactly two kidnaps this year.
Amazing! A.M. Mora y Leon at Publius Pundit has much more on Columbian President Alvaro Uribe.
