I was invited to hear the United States Ambassador Catherine Todd Bailey speak at the University of Latvia. The speech was titled "Preserving Our Common Values" With a title like that I was expecting a light hearted comparison of Latvian and American values. Instead she basically tore Latvian politics to shreds and stopped just short of saying that the government is corrupt. It was very interesting and something that made headlines here and really pissed some people off.
