The statements ignited ill feelings between MPs of the bipartisan government and from what it looks like it is not going to ease up. In fact MPs on both sides began to lash out at one another, and Evangelos (the Large) Venizelos even telephoned Antonis Samaras to complain!
Voridis said:
"The crisis in Greece has a given name and surname. The choices of PASOK (and) Andreas Papandreou (which were taken at a specific time for Greece) are responsible for the destruction of this country."Voridis' statements caused barrage of announcements from PASOK, which in return unleashed harsh attacks against the parliamentary spokesman in defence of the late Andreas Papandreou.
Makis Voridis is not retracting any of his statements, and as noted on Sunday morning on MEGA channel. In his opinion, the formation of the bipartisan government does not in any way mean that the conservative New Democracy party will ever back down from its ideological identity!
Editor's Note - Why lash out at Voridis? All he did was say the truth! Besides, Venizelos hates the Papandreou clan, as does his mentor Costas Simitis. They did everything in their power to bring down the Papandreou dynasty. In fact we believe that in private they probably slam the Papandreou clan every chance they get, and only pretend to defend the name because they know they are scoring low with voters and need the support of Papandreou-holics (meaning supporters of the Papandreou clan who moved over to SYRIZA). Why are they so upset? For the past four years we have been listening to their rhetoric about Costas Karamanlis. PASOK slammed Karamanlis every chance it got. They accused him of playing Playstation 2, being overweight, being an alcoholic, being incompetent to govern the country, etc. They couldn't accuse him of anything else because they knew very well that the hundreds of thousands of PASOK supporters who work in the public sector were hired during Andreas Papandreou's terms in government! But... whoever dares to even speak the truth in this country is only in for a clash with this psuedo Leftist party. PASOK forgets that for four years Karamanlis was a punching bag by both Venizelos and Papandreou. Thankfully Karamanlis has today been vindicated for all his political and economic choices, the Papandreou clan on the other hand is still tangled up in very controversial scandals and from what we learn they are actually loathed by the people!
