No fear?

This is not a prison… but San Lazaro, where the Chamber of Deputies sits, conducting the “people’s business”.

Besides the security wall, metro and bus service near the Chamber has been temporarily suspended and a thousand federal police are to be on hand for the ceremony. The costs to taxpayers aside, the disruption is said to have already caused 200 million pesos in business losses to area merchants. All this to prevent anyone from possibly swearing AT to prevent the people from swearing AT Enrique Peña Nieto who is due to be sworn IN as President here on Saturday.

    Nothing says “popular choice of the people” like having to be sworn into elected office behind towering steel barricades, 1000 police and other undisclosed security precautions.
