OPINION: Servility the path to exit door

 The National Assembly is our parliament. There 71 officials elected by the people discuss and analyze issues of national interest. And everyone equally, without discrimination, has the right to do so. The Credentials Committee of the Assembly is one of those legislative instances in which it must be deeply analyzed and discussed since it is the first filter of the designations made by the Executive.

 Recall that there were several appointments made by former President Varela where his candidates after hard interrogations were rejected.

 So why now fear that independent deputies will do the same and comply with examining the credentials of those nominated by President Cortizo? In fact, the independents do the ruler a favor when they question, interrogate and warn because if these candidates have past actions that can negatively influence their future efforts, their appointment would be an error that would directly affect the President.

– But the servile spirit is  more than a genuine vocation of service to the State. Correct your actions, gentlemen, remember that there are more than 50 ex-honorables who bet – and lost – to the bad memory of the electors.- LA PRENSA, July 25
