The return of Baby-Doc

Ex-dictator 'Baby Doc' returns to Haiti

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20110116...20110116232559

"PORT-AU-PRINCE (AFP) – Ousted strongman Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier returned to Haiti on Sunday after some 25 years in exile as the country wrestled with a post-election crisis.

Duvalier, wearing a blue suit and a tie and accompanied by his wife, was making his way through customs at Port-au-Prince's international airport after arriving on an Air France flight, an AFP journalist witnessed.

The 59-year-old ex-dictator was ousted from power in 1986 by massive anti-government demonstrations after his family and supporters were accused of plundering tens of millions of dollars of state funds."

The vulture smells death?

That's what I was thinking,,

But you got to think the UN and BHO were briefed and agreed to his visit??

Why would WJC, Hillary & Potus allow this scumbag back into the fry, unless they can profit from it??

A house call...soon

http://www.miamiherald.com/2011/01/1...aiti-trip.html

PORT-AU-PRINCE -- Heavily armed Haitian police officers, a judge and a chief prosecutor arrived at the hotel in Port-au-Prince, where former dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc'' Duvalier remained holed up Tuesday, as rumors of his arrest boiled.

Judge Gabriel Ambroise would not say if he had an arrest warrant, as officers continued to flood the hotel about 10:15 a.m.

Haitian police officers said they were asked to secure the Karibe hotel, but did not confirm if there was an arrest warrant for Duvalier.

With Baby Doc back in Haiti, Aristide calls next

Man, this just keeps getting better

With Baby Doc back in Haiti, Aristide calls next

http://www.comcast.net/articles/news...tator.Returns/

"PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Haitians adjusting to the sudden return of one exiled ex-president could soon have another on their hands.

As former dictator Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier held court with allies at an upscale hotel on Wednesday, ousted former President Jean-Bertrand Aristide sent out a letter saying he is ready to come back from six years of South African exile "today, tomorrow, at any time."

"As far as I am concerned, I am ready," he wrote in an e-mail distributed by supporters and posted online. "The purpose is very clear: To contribute to serving my Haitian sisters and brothers as a simple citizen in the field of education."......"

Weary Haitians Shrug As Ragnarök Begins Outside Port-Au-Prince

January 17, 2011 | ISSUE 47•03

PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI—Preoccupied with recovery from a devastating 7.0 earthquake, seasonal floods, a widespread cholera outbreak, and chaos in the wake of disputed presidential elections, the weary Haitian people simply shrugged in resignation Tuesday at the sudden onset of Ragnarök, the end of the cosmos as foretold in Norse mythology. "At first I didn't even notice the writhing serpents spewing poison into the sky, but once I saw Loki demolishing everything in his wake, I was like, 'Of course,'" unemployed barber Jean-Paul Aucoin said as Tyr and the hellhound Garm battled behind him. "It's a little odd, since Haiti has no connection to Scandinavian folklore, yet at the same time it makes perfect sense." Aucoin then went back to loading rubble into a wheelbarrow as Sköll devoured the sun, plunging the island nation of Haiti into complete and total darkness.

Oh ye of little faith.
As soon as he gets his assets unfrozen he'll be handing out C-0notes and kissing babies.

I'm thinking he read the tea leaves wrong and right now, he's paying off anyone and everyone he can to secure his freedom. It won't work though; we'll soon see pictures of him doing his Richard Pryor impersonation after the locals get a hold of him and drop the flaming tire over his head.

He will face justice HERE:

Oh, what poetry could be derived from this.....jd
