Opposition Against Taitelbaum Goes Online

Opposition to the naming of Ofelia Taitelbaum as Defensoría de los Habitantes (Ombudswoman) has gone on line, as hundreds have been using Facebook to post their malcontent.

Taitelbaum, a legislator for the Partido Liberación Nacional (PLN) before being named Ombudswoman, is not a person like by the public, the same public she is charged with defending.

Since her appointment last week, support against her has grown immensely, multiplying hundreds of times from the first days. The discontent was demonstrated in a peaceful march last Sunday.

Taitelbaum is expected to assume her post on January 4, 2010.

However, with the growing discontent, including the promise from a number of opposed not to allow to enter the Defensoría building on January 4, it may force the government to take note.
