Excuse me Mr McLean, but in 1989, I was working in Colombia....and all the DEA agens knew that Alvaro Uribe was a crook. Period. If politicians, for dirty politics, want to crown him saint as the Mother Santa Theresa, It's all right, but this is cynical. He was a vital and important piece of the Medellin Cartel , and a close friend of the drugkinpin Pablo Escobar. Please, Mr McLean, don't manipule the truth. Facts are facts.
