Colombian Vice President Says Amy Winehouse Is Killing The Planet And Us
HAVING failed in its attempt to have Amy Winehouse jailed, the Sun is going about the world armed with a petition that demands the singer is locked up.
Today Colombian Vice President Francisco Santos says Winehouse should be “sent to rehab”.

Santos is something of an expert on UK celebrities having opined of Kate Moss: “To me, it’s baffling that someone who helps cause so much pain in Colombia is doing better then ever.”
Adding: “I never once heard her says ‘I’m sorry’, when in Colombia people die every day because of cocaine consumption – that hurts.”
Now Santos is talking of Winehouse. “I know about her, she’s a mess. I don’t think she understands the harm cocaine does to my country… Not only does it kill, displace and mutilate people in Colombia, it destroys our wonderful forests. The environmental damage is catastrophic.”
Senor Santos makes a powerful argument. Winehouse is an accessory to murder, a mutilator and above all else a planet hater driving her 4×4 back and forth over Mother Nature’s throat.
Says Santos: “A lot of casual users in Britain drive hybrid cars, recycle, take the tube, buy organic and then they go and snort a line of cocaine.”
Winehouse doesn’t operate a hybrid car but the Sun is convinced she has taken the tube, notably up her nose…

Is it not about time these nasty creatures who call themselves journalists leave Amy alone. So what if she wants to wreck her life snorting coke or whatever else she may do. She’s not hurting anyone but herself. Whatever she is doing has been done a thousand times before by just about every rock star on the planet. FFS leave her alone
M and A
She might be upset if people do leave her alone?

I think the problem is that people see someone with a huge talent, offered every opportunity in the world that most people can only dream of, who chooses to throw it back in people’s faces and chuck her life away for the sake of drugs. They are ALL worth of criticism - the Colombians for growing it, the dealers for flogging it, the government for not preventing the supply and the Amy Winehouses or Joe Bloggs of this world for buying the stuff and shoving it up their stupid noses. If you can’t get high on life without drugging yourself up to the eyeballs to do it, change your life…

Colombian Vice President Francisco Santos could always get off his whining arse and go tackle some of the cartels.
amy winehouse isn’t likely to have him and all his family brutally murdered though, so i guess he prefers the ’stay sat on my fat, corrupt columbian vice-presidential arse’ method.

Ok firstly, I would like to point out that the Sun has engaged in a merciless campaign to have Amy arrested ostensibly on the grounds of traditional British morals, I’m sorry since when have the Sun, it’s owner or any of it’s editors or so-called “journalists” questioned their own morals when they hound other human beings and puclish slanderous and defammatory articles that are simply made up to sell more papers. The ironic thing is that these people have less talent combined than Amy has in her baby finger. Secondly, It is the utmost hypocrisy that”Senor Santos” should criticize Amy for taking cocaine and ruining Columbi. I have visited Columbia and taken an interest in Latin America as part of my university work and found that it is not British celebrities who are killing Colombians and causing environmental degredation in Colombia but rather their weak willed Government who refuse to stand up to the drug bandits that are effectively running the country. So Senor Santos as a senior member of Colombia’s failing Government should look closer to home before criticizing someone who is clearly vulnerable and on the brink of disaster. It is my wish and hope that the Sun will end its ruthless campaign, show some empathy and magnamity and that people would stop blaming problems on Amy Winehouse that wouuld be a major feature of life whether Amy enjoys a line of cocaine or not!!!

Is every leader in the western hemisphere clueless?
The butterfly effect notwithstanding, Columbia’s problem is that it has had and continues to have impotent morons running it’s government.
Can’t take care of your own people in any way, shape or form? No big deal, take a swipe at an easy target-problems solved. This guy is a bigger idiot than the U.N. doofus who blamed Africa’s problems on Moss and Winehouse.

Amy, like any drug users, is building unhappiness by choosing this path.
Columbia, over its history has been less effective at dealing with problems than Amy Winehouse. Hence the massive production for local use of cocaine.
If we were stronger, we wouldn’t touch what has impoverished Columbia.
This sadly isn’t the case.
We should lift those around us up with hope.
