Baby Doc has returned to Haiti. Amazingly, he still out of jail there? Has he come back to return the millions stolen? Just what the people of Haiti need, another thug.
Wikileaks says they will publish names of account holders of secret Swiss bank accounts. If they have paid tax, sorry, if not...ante up in cash and time, rich and famous or not.
