Lefty Mexican Lawmakers Block Fox's Speech
MeltDownSouthVicente Fox was forced to forego the last state-of-the-nation address of his presidency Friday after leftist lawmakers stormed the stage of Congress to protest disputed July 2 elections. It was the first time in modern Mexican history a president hasn't given the annual address to Congress. Instead, Fox handed in a written copy of his report, and his office said he would address the nation in a televised speech later Friday. Posted by: Omoque Snereque6639 2006-09-02 |
