Bolivia Part ...........

Protests by miners and workers are paralyzing La Paz and blocking roads everywhere else, President Mesa publically calls for 'dialogue', and says he intends to finish out his term in 2007 in 2007, while a couple of colonels on TV warn ominously that "President Mesa should step down" and demand the nationalization of the natural gas industry.

Nasty rumors state that the Prez already has an exile set out for him in Spain, while coup rumours abound.
