Frankly speaking, I do not remember The Daily Mail or The Sun writing about fraud when Charlie “Whitening” (he cleans everything) favored Mr. Hamilton in every ocasion he could. I have several examples: from Hungary, when Fernando Alonso and Lewis “Spoiled Kid” Hamilton had that affaire, to recent events (Valencia, this year, for example). In every situation, Mr. “Whitening” honoured his new last name and favored Hamilton. The argument was always the same: this time it not punishable; next time will be.
Mr. Hamilton, the man who don’t respect neither safety …

Time ago, the old-man published a note in Twitter:
hey pistolero, there is no “i” in “team”. what did i say in March? Lots to learn. Restated.
Now, the pistolero is crawling, the real pistolero, the one who is being observed by so many for the accusations of doping (in Spain we use to say: “when the river sounds, it carries water”), the pistolero that was supposedly to eat the world, is crawling in his bicycle all around France. Time now for beers, beaches and a good retire.
Hahahaha. So much longing for …

Formula 1 is a circus. This sentence is right. And every circus has a clown. Charlie Whiting is the clown of Formula 1 (F1). There are several examples of this in the last years. Rules in the F1 exists, but it is up to Charlie Whiting to interpret them. And every time the rule is broken (in Spain we use the term violated) by a British, for instance Lewis Hamilton, the interpretation of Charlie Whiting is that the rule does not exists and should be interpreted. And the result of …

Censorship happens in Spain!
Remember 80’s in Madrid? I remember very well coming from Huelva to the University. Madrid’s Gran Vía was full of life. There was a McDonalds (my first experience with my classmate Eduardo!), there was a lot of people walking, there was also Madrid Rock (the best shop about music ever in Spain) and there was … Kentucky Fried Chicken!
About music, I remember that there was the times of Mecano, Héroes del Silencio, Hombres G, etc. Ramoncín (José Ramón Julio Martínez Márquez) was something sometimes good, but more …

Aunque ya lo sabía, me lo recuerda elentir: Juan Manuel de Prada, el azote de los extremistas, vuelve a la COPE con un comentario diario. Un apunte, elentir: El Confidencial Digital no es el portavoz oficioso de la COPE. Está un tal Apezarena en su dirección (si no me equivoco), un señor que creo es del Opus, y que, además, estuvo un año dirigiendo La Linterna (año en el que me aburrí sobremanera por las noches oyendo la radio).
Bueno, Juan Manuel, de alguna forma te has cobrado tu pieza, aunque …

Mr. Zapatero said about the last night ETA terrorist attack in Burgos, Spain:
The government is held to end with this blight …
Save your anger to the moment when is needed.
You fed them. you fed the beast.
Why are you showing surprise and anger?

Yesterday, on the Spanish Parliament, there was a kind of debate between Mr. Zapatero, Spain’s Prime Minister, and Mr. Rajoy, leader of the opposition party, the PP (Partido Popular). The issue was the announcement last week, by the Spanish Defence Minister Mrs. Chacón, of the exit of the Spanish troops in Kosovo.
Firstly, I have to say that, since Spain did not recognize the independence of Kosovo, Spanish troops should never been present on this piece of European land. But the government of Mr. Zapatero, for not upseting again Mr. Bush …

The answer is NO. I am watching on TV the math Liverpool - Real Madrid. The first thing I have to admit is that Real Madrid is doing the worst match I have ever seen, and this is a merit of the Liverpool, which is doing very well.
But the first goal was scored on a previous penalty of a Liverpool player on the Real Madrid defender Cannavaro. And Frank De Bleeckere was looking directly. And if he did not see this, it is because Frank De Bleeckere does not know …

Today is the day. The Goya Awards. A Spanish version of the Oscar Awards. And my question is… who cares? Spanish cinema is losing more and more spectators. And the quality of Spanish films is getting worse. There are many reasons for this. First is the Spanish government regulation for film subsidies. Spanish government finance 33% of the budget of the film (with a limit of 700.000 euros). But not only this: there are other subsidies, from regional governments. This makes that the quantity of the films is higher, but …

According to Libertad Digital Mr. Erdogan, Turkeys’ Prime Minister, leaves the Davos and returns to Turkey. This was after confronting Israel Prime Minister Mr. Shimon Peres, on a debate in which he defended the Hamas terrorists.
Turkey, from almost the very beginning, is one of the allies of the Western Countries, belonging to the NATO. But this was time before. Middle East Forum and its articles showed from time ago Erdogan efforts to shift Turkey to a secular country, abbandoning the laity of the Turkish state, designed by Ataturk on his …
