LDP reflects on government's first year in power

When will Jovanovic finally figure out that his neoliberal agenda is a farce and destructive, and that his brand of political narcissism has no place in a modern,neutral, and peaceful Serbia? Even the Americans rejected radical globalism with the election of Obama, and now its time for Serbs to do the same and completely shut out the LDP. Jovanovic remids me an awful lot of Sarah Palin, a very self-satisfied narcissist.

why does b92 focus so much on what the LDP says and does? they got only a few seats in parliament. I never see SRS having a say in b92 articles. Is it democratic for a media outlet to focus on some pro western parties and ignore other larger parties?

Well said Djole,

B92 is a great supporter of of the LDP and Cedo Jovanovic, in fact if you want to test this fact just say something less than flattering about Cedo and see if your post makes it.

^ vladimir gagic, I am not a fan of LDP, but your wrong about their economic stances. They aren't neo-liberals, G-17 is neo-liberal. LDP supports aspects of neo-liberals but they can't be denounced collectively as neo-liberal.

Why do so many pro-Albanian post on B92 pretend to care about what happens to Serbia? Every post that claims that it will good for Serbia to renounce Kosovo is obviously completely self-serving and without the least bit of concern for Kosovo Serbs or Serbia. Prime example, all the Albanian nationalists who say Jovanovic and his outdated LDP will be good for Serbia. A suggestion to all the Serbophobes: at least be honest about your intentions; don't claim to care anything about Serbia when your only real motivation is greater Albania. If greater Albania and an independent Kosovo are truly such wonderful goals, then proclaim it openly and don't hide behind some false demonstrations of "objectivity". We know you don't care about Kosovo Serbs or Serbia.

Bravo Jovanovic!
Finally some common sense against the corrupted and Miskovic´s and Beko´s controlled Government.

LDPs popularity has grown since 2000. This is mainly because of neo-Milosevic ideology still persistant on beograd parties.
Sooner or later serbs will get tired of lies and diluted patriotism to stay in power and choose true change.

@KOSOVOARi

The LDP did not exist in 2000.

The LDP formed in 2003.

Nice try though.

Actually Nikola the LDP was formed in 2005. Whats funnier is the LDP has not gained any ground since 2005, its a cult following. LDP's followers are nothing but delusional and drugged up teens hypnotized by Ceda's promise of a care free life where the EU plops money out of its behind instead of actually lifting a finger themselves to make a living and spending their cash on something other than drugs.

A shame really I remember Dačić saying during the elections that he would call on a ban of all political parties and NGO's who support a independent Kosovo. What happened Mr Dačić, slipped your mind?

LDP aren't liberal, or neo-liberal or anything having to do with a clear political profile. How can anyone discuss their ideology when they don't have one? They are a business, just like every other political party in Serbia, parliamentary or not.

The Q7 ought to have been a dead giveaway, but apparently not everyone can put 2 and 2 together.

B92 I do apollogize for commenting again but i forgot add this to my last post.

Vladimir,

I don't know where to begin to address your post. The reason why and others come to comment here is because we need to defend our homeland, Kosova. I don't think you understand the importance of Kosova, our homes, our memories, childhood, friends and family. Your claims that we hate serbs or fake pretend to like Kosovar minority is rubbish. Kosova has rights to the highest level in the world for all. Decentralization. The Kosovar Government is continually trying to integrate all people, but of course it is hard work with Beograd consistantly dragging its feet in the ground and preventing mass returns of the Kosovar refugees from Serbia.

We can't say we are in love with Serbs, but we can coexist. This is evident with 80,000 Kosovar Serbs living in Kosova, south of Mitrovica. The only tension is in the northern part of Kosova where heavily patriotic Serbs felt the need to unite.

Anyways, come visit Kosova in person and you will realise that Serbian media sensation has diluded the reality.

PEACE :)

@Djole
Do you mean to say that there is someone who takes money to promote these rabid anti-Serbian ideas?

The neo-liberal Quisling policies of the LDP are fast approaching redundant status. His paymasters in Washington will soon run out of money to pay him so he can expect to be paid in toilet paper in the future.

Then him and his neo-liberal capitalist policies will be flushed down the toilet.

A fitting tribute to a failed man and his failed party.

There are many, many things with which i disagree on this site (and some with which i am in common cause), but -- to compare my cedi to that horrible, populist, anti-intellectual, super-conservative, gun-toting, hockey-mom pit bull with lipstick -- just too easy to satirize... ms. palin. the analogy is just off, off, off. i know, i know, tell us how you really feel about her :)

as to this other point about why don't (we) "serb-haters" just be open about it, etc, etc -- there probably are serb-haters that post here, i have read some, have argued w/others... have several times labeled their rantings as racist... i personally have always tried not to say (or think) "serb camp" even when it seems so obvious that such polarity exists... my main battle is with the nationalists, and it is a very real one.

i personally know many serbs and non-serbs living in serbia, and i hesitate to make sweeping judgments about them ALL. i do believe that the media absolutely marginalizes those dissidents and human-rights advocates -- i haven't heard a word (here) about cedi in ages, rarely about sonia biserko, not to mention so many others. but daily about nice mr jeremic, nice mr tadic, nice mr. dodik, etc etc. so one does get the impression (at least on the english side) that there is ONE (nationalist) voice. but i personally know that such is not the case, and the nasty ramifications of generalizing and stereotyping.

so, many of us really do believe that cedi and his colleagues (and more importantly, their ideas, which are really the best of the djindjic era) would be good for serbia, and for all of the people IN serbia, as well as the region. making a real peace, dealing with the past in an honest and straightforward way, stopping all of the endless games, hurtful games, about how hard we're looking for our war criminals, bla bla bla.

of course eventual economic cooperation is the key -- to try to figure out what did work in the former (tito's) yu, rather than all the bad aspects. this "we hate you, you hate us, that's the end of it" is just so pointless, so wasteful, so taking us all nowhere, fast.

and yes, recognizing kosovo/a or at the very least speaking with kos. govt people in a respectful way instead of the old approach -- that would be a good start indeed, and helpful to EVERYone.

we have a very long way to go, but you have to start somewhere.

thank you.
