Of that dust, these muds

Today in the supplement "Sunday" of THE COUNTRY a titled reportage is published "not suitable Enyd Blyton for children", that they introduce of the following form: "The writer had a complex and dark side. After the criticism for racism and sexism, now it is suggested that he was professing sympathies for Hitler".
Already in the body of the article, it is possible to read: "I for example was not remembering of that in Adventure in the island - one of my favorite novels of Enid Blyton together with Shadow, the sheepdog - the villain, Jo-Jo, dumb and lazy, it was black. But also it is true that in Tom Sawyer the villain is an Indian, for not speaking about the concept that Sandokán of the women has and what thinks about the Arabs Beau Geste".
Certainly, one, reading this thinks... difficult what does the struggle to itself for the equality when there are generations and generations who have grown with these books!!

My body is mine

Last week I received an invitation it joined the group facebook "that the justice operates against the Archbishop of Granada" and, of course, I joined immediately, but... since then it had earring to do a post on the topic.
For whom he does not know it, such an archbishop, Javier Martínez, in a homily compared the Law of the Abortion with Hitler's crimes and showed that "to kill a defenseless child, and that her own mother should do it, it gives to the males the absolute license, without limits, of abusing the body of the woman, because the tragedy she swallows it".
The clarification of the information bureau of the Bishops of the South scares more still: "what it meant is that if the mother is capable of killing her own son, the male has absolute authority of that time to do what he wants with it and with his body".
That's why... I invite you to join this group that is already provided with more than 20.000 members!!

Sign up to the march!!


Next 30th and 31st of January, IU has summoned a "march against the corruption," in the one that up cheered you to take part. It will go out on Saturday, the 30th from Seseña and Sunday, the 31st will end with a concentration before the Congress and an act in the Cultural club of Madrid.
It goes out from Seseña, emblematic place where they are, because as there says Manuel Fuentes, his mayor, "since it governs IU only one square meter has not been re-qualified", despite the harassment and demolition of the Well-digger.
If you do not cheer up to the march (of 40 kilometers), at least see to the concentration!!!

Also they speak about it: Update: this night, on having come to house, I have found out about one more motive for taking part in this march, this one. And if you are in Facebook, up I cheer you to add you, this group.

The things of our Espe/II

Yesterday, Hope Aguirre was taken down by a few declarations in which he was affirming that in Madrid "it is taken in valuing the grade of dependency of the patients of the region because officials carry out the work", to justify that three years after the approval of the Law of Dependency, Madrid continues to the tail of the autonomous regions as for his application, only ahead of Murcia and Canaries.
He has not wanted to tell to us why in the rest of the autonomous regions the evaluation also the officials carry out it and the Law of Dependency applies itself correctly, and neither he has wanted to reveal that in December, 2009 there were little any more than 60 persons to attend to 52.049 requests.
So that to say more, if in spite of saying that these are "the things of our Espe" everything is said. Watch The Wanda Sykes Show S01E15 Episode 15 now
