If Chavez is forced to flee, you can bet the farm Obama will give him sanctuary here.

He'll probably hire him as a Czar of something or other.

It would be quite refreshing to see Chavez and his commie gov’t fall.

We need a BO version.

It could be a super-scary, best-selling Halloween combo; the Twin-Headed, Double-Dose of Big-Eared Commie’s with the heads of Chavez y Commrade BO.

Sounds like some of this was started by the recent jailing of a journalist/tv & radio news reporter, Gustavo Azócar.

Let’s hope it grows!

BUT,,, Hugo isn’t even home. I saw him yesterday with his buddy Bashir in Damascus. It looked to me like those two were getting ready to go out for goatmeat kebabs and belly dancers. YUMMY!

I’m curious though, what kind of barbecue sauce do you use on belly dancers?

Sorry! I belong rightfully to the California profile, but they append a big useless banner with useless stories/alerts to the top of the general news stories. I’m interested in Venezuela and their membership was small ,so I joined. If you’ve ever heard of Maria Esperanza of Betania (a notable Catholic Mystic) , my interest stems from her and her saying that ‘Gods justice will start in Venezuela’.

This might be a lesson learned for our Country. What is happening to Chavez will happen to communists/dictator King Obama. You cannot rape a Country and get away with it forever. It soon catches up to these kind of radical nut jobs. Let hope Venezuela is not too far gone and hope that we can stop the communists takeover of our Country. The entire RAT party are insane.

One day the Venezuela officials asked her to appear to discuss her bank account. During the meeting, her sister was told that since all her needs were being met by the state, she no longer need the money and they took it!

Wow. I'm almost speechless... that's the end game. If Obama stays in power here for much longer, I'd expect him to agitate for wealth taxes, but not the direct personal 100% approach. At least not for a while.

We don’t necessarily need the CIA on this. If we just had a reasonable president that would repudiate closing media outlets, radio stations, killing dissenters, tyrannous activities then Chavez would be one step closer to being out the door. How about just a president that stands with the Iranian protesters, that will bear any burden pay any price in the defense of liberty?

Something cooking today in Venezuelan politics... an anti-Chavez rally was planned for Orlando Fl at 5pm. Looks like the folks back home beat them to it, big time!

The media, if they mention it at all, will call this a “white racist” rally against Zambo. Not many black faces in the crowd.

I’m worried what might happen if Hugo calls for the “gentuza” up in the hillside “ranchos” to come down and “greet” the protesters. Could get ugly.

Other breaking news...US President Barack Obama is deeply disappointed in the anti-Chavez protestors in Venezuela and will be sending US taxpayer dollars soon to prop up his buddy Chavez.

Unfortunately, the Republicans are of little help with central and South American problems, because they have a longstanding cabal of nuts who control their policy in that region. They have controlled that part of Republican foreign policy since Reagan and likely before, and they only let in their friends, and exclude anyone not in their clique.

Though they are very right wing, they are also incompetent. They tried two CIA backed efforts against Chavez, which were executed so woefully bad that they turned into embarrassing disasters.

They also have the bad habit of bending the rules too much, and still not producing results. Since the Democrats are utterly incapable of conducting *any* sound foreign policy, this has left central and South America in the lurch for decades.

How can we support this? I feel so helpless. Talk about a world apology tour. The U.S. has now got a LOT of apologizing to do once we’re rid of the fungus Obama. Bush would have the CIA in action supporting this.

Hopefully Venezuela gets rid of Chavez on its own. It's best for each nation to exorcize its own demons, meddling in other nations' affairs often comes back to bite one in the ass. After all, Ho Chi Minh once worked for the CIA, too.

I know you're right. But it never hurts to know that a country as powerful as the U.S. (used to be?) believes in your cause. Never hurts to know you've got friends. Right now we're masquerading as their enemy.

Wow. I'm almost speechless... that's the end game. If Obama stays in power here for much longer, I'd expect him to agitate for wealth taxes, but not the direct personal 100% approach. At least not for a while.

I've been warning all my family and friends . . . . keep track of your FICA withholdings and make sure that you end up with -0- refund, even if you have to pay a little next 4/15. I’m expecting Obummer to announce a fiscal crisis next spring and keep everyone’s refund to help keep the gubmint running.

You can claim as many dependents as you want, so you can easily adjust the amount of FICA withholding.

I’m also surprised that no one is aware that the so-called tax cut Obambi said he gave us last spring was simply a change in the rate of withholding, not a real tax cut. You are simply taking more home with each paycheck – you will still have to pay the same amount of tax, so that big refund you expect every spring will be a lot smaller – or nonexistent. You also should know that whatever you received for your clunker is also going to be taxable income.

Surprise, surprise, surprise!
