What the papers say: Puppets in the Assembly

La Prensa. Hoy por hoy.
“…Deputies who subscribed to Martinelli’s promises of change, work the same way as the bulldozers of the PRD, when that party dominated the Assembly.

 The bill amending three codes and six laws was approved by deputies with a rare display of blindness and deafness.

“They behaved as if the Constitution was just a lot of fine words, but not significant. The institutions of the country are trampled by thier own guards, respect for the voters is non-existent and subservience has become how to behave in front of the Executive. Do not expect voters reward or recognition. While, yes, they will mourn their defeat in the upcoming elections today they operate as puppets. They acted as if they had no conscience or shame.”
