Cardinal Nicolas de Jesus Lopez Rodriguez says that the Dominican public is tired of the internal conflict going on in the ruling PLD party and says that it is damaging for the country. He continued by saying that "we are tired of violence, death, drugs, and instability." The Cardinal made his statements while speaking with Alicia Ortega on her show "El Informe." The Cardinal believes that the situation will benefit no one.
The Cardinal encouraged political candidates to leave it to the party to decide who will be the presidential candidate and to campaign by highlighting not what the other is lacking, but what they themselves would do if elected President for 2008-2012.
The Cardinal criticized the protests by organized groups that damage outsiders. He commented that the owners of transport businesses should be referred to as entrepreneurs and not union leaders. He said people that have been benefiting from the government for years represent no ideals nor are campaigning for workers. He said the transporters should apologize and ask for the pardon of the Dominican people for their involvement in the strike that resulted in the burning of several women that had nothing to do with the mobilization. "They called that strike, and God knows what criminal took advantage of that to carry out the crime, the terrorist act, that had such a tragic consequence," he said.
