Administration Denies Forcing Aristide Out

Maxine Waters and Charlie Rangle are way left. Colin is a moderate and he denies the charges. All are black yet they have different opinions on this.

Not all blacks are liberals.
Randall Robinson is also pretty far to the left, and African-American. Seems to me to be a man of integrity and principle -- and writes a good book.

Be that as it may -- all that means is that Aristide -- or someone they believe to be Aristide -- called them and spun the tale. That doesn't make the tale true. Aristide has always seemed a bit unstable to me, as charismatic "holy man" personas often are.
