Brazzil

The only thing to lament in this guy's death is that it took so long to come. Lucky his degenerate son killed himself (he snorted several lines of coke, felt just great, put on a nice warm sweater on a hot day and went running in the park to shed some lard off.He obviously croaked as a result. The strings ACM had to pull to nix the autopsy and the tox test were really major).Otherwise we'd have another of the family, even worse than the patriarch, coming to dominate brazilian politics. At least the old man wasn't a cokehead playboy.

Good riddance, ACM.
While the official story was that his son Luis Eduardo died of a heart attack at 43, most Bahians will say that he really died face down in a plate full of cocaine. Hopefully now that the old SOB is gone Bahia will find the political will to remove his son's name from Salvador's international airport and return it to its former historically significant name of 2 de Julho.

I hope not.

All the corruption that has happened in Bahia ran directly through ACM for the last 4 decades. Besides his son's heart attack being induced by cocaine use, the story goes that his daughters death was not a suicide at all but ACM himself put her down because she was a dike.

(soccer for the sucking americans).

Their Performance.....HEhehehehehehe!

What may never be seen again is a week in which an ACM assumes room temperature and his enemy Pires has his "mandato cassado".

On soccer, wasn´t aware that the US had fielded a female team for this event. Thanks for the info.

If loving Marta and Cristiane is wrong, I don't want to be right.

fielding their best teams...



Let's hear it Costa!!

What may never be seen again is a week in which an ACM assumes room temperature and his enemy Pires has his "mandato cassado".

Not really,Ric. Pires lost his Ministry,but not his prestige. Lula is quite upset with the way Pires was fired. He is trying to fix another job for his with Jackson Wagner, the PT Governor of BA. I dont think we have heard the last of Dr.Waldir Pires.Pires is immortal,Ric.

another "Coronel" from the northeast is gone. It would be good for them if they aren't already ellecting new ones, since this is the only view of democracy those sertanejos have. I am sorry for them. They, unfortunately, will always be controlled by those "Coronéis". ACM grandson is already in the federal congress, with his demagogy preventing politicians from other states of doing the right thing. Northeast has too many people voting and sending "Coronéis" to Brasilia.

Hey Magnus, How are things in RS? It as so sad that so many people lost their lives in the TAM accident. Hope none of your friends or relatives were among the victims. I felt really sorry that some honest old folks were among the ones who lost their lives.That is life,right? May God bless all thir good souls.

I would like to congratulate brazilians for this festive moment in the history of this country.
The major merit of SOB ACM was his capacity of puting together a terrible crime machine infiltrated in all sphere of government in Brazil, from the representatives in Bahia's cities to the seat that holds the presidency of Brazil, including some of the militars, FOR ALMOST 40 YEARS ! That is such an achievment...
The money he has ilegaly accumulated in these long years oiled his political clan to be on top of most the major public contracts, midia control, purchase of vast acres of land, and also the control by force of all his political oponents. The author has forgot to mention his clandestine hearings of telephone lines of his political opponents in Bahia, a federal crime of which he has never been charged. Those are really his achievments. Bahia's growth has just ben an accident on his way.
Paulo Maluf, one of his team mates is still crowling around, but his story is also at the end.
The only and terrible heritage this SOB leaves is that all money they have stollen, which is not that litlle, may never be recupeated.
Once again, CONGATULATIONS BRASILIANS FOR THIS FESTIVE DAY !

Hi João, thanks for asking! I didn't had any relatives on that flight, only the father of a former school mate in Novo Hamburgo, Julio Redecker. I was in Porto Alegre the day after the accident, the city was sad that day, that's all I have to say.

But anyway, I am going to Garopaba next weekend, hope is not that cold as is here...See ya!

why do brasilians only talk bad about the dead ones
take to the streets and take over the goverment
they have been taking from you long enough

if the probate system has there way it would be 15 yeras before his family gets the money or land .
in that case why cant the courts come in and take back what belongs to the people

Hi,Admn, a good question. There is a movement called "Cansei" being started by OAB-SP and also another demostration planned at S.Paulo on August 4th. I bet you read Portuguese reasonably well. If not, please seek the help of Fatima to google and find about these movements.

Yes, Magnus, I felt sorry that Julio Redecker died. You might be aware that the grand daughter of the ex Governor of SC also was one of the victims. Lacerda died in an air crash 49 years ago and would you believe that Lacerda´s wife is still alive?

It is going to be a cold week,my friend and should be worse in Garopaba. You better bring your Poncho and Chimarão. Have a great week end.

Why good riddance? This Colonel would never have put up with NGO and outside interlopers as the current babaca that sit's in Brasilia at the present time. Indeed, one might sometimes give some thought that a return to the military should be the order of the day. Lula should be congratulated on his corruption, his ignorance, and his never-ending slovenly obedient behaviour to outside influences such as the onu, (UN) the US etc. The prisons have tripled under Lula so has the vilolence.

Great countries tend to have Colonels and great leaders, not idiot moralists such as Bush and Lula. When these two are gone, then we will have good riddance. Meqnwhile my respects to Antonio Magalhaes!

One less SOB. Now let's hope Lula goes soon, he is a liar and it is destroying my country.

Yeah, João, unfortunately it gonna be cold, but doesn't matter. With those Santa Catarina beaches, who needs northeastern beaches? And btw, it's Pala, not poncho. Poncho is the argentinean version. Ponchos have sleeves , Palas don't
