  1. Over almost two decades, beginning with Chavez, the Venezuelan people elected their way into this.

    I doubt they’ll be able to elect themselves out of it.

    There future probably consists of rule by military dictatorship, their former relative prosperity, prior to Chavez, becoming a more and more distant memory till it is all but forgotten except among historians and the elderly.

    So she moved to the Peoples’ Republic of Santa Monica! I guess Perry has it right. Her husband was a coffee shop friend.

    WRONG!
    20 years ago I had 2 friends who were refugees from Hugo Chavez’s “mutiny”. They said Col Chavez led a very violent, bloody Coup d’erat. Our press said this slaughter was an “election”.

    Think the last 7 days: 1. BuzzFeed – Moscow Tower; 2. ABC – Xenophobic Covington students.

    If you think Col. Chavez’s ruthless Coup was an election you put way too much faith in the far left American Press!
