the nationalist military will find the growing violence intolerable

I have my doubts about that

So, history will record that a revolution dedicated to “Socialism of the 21st Century” disintegrated for lack of U.S. greenbacks.

and there it is...

but of course, Venezuela still has enough money to donate oil to joe Kennedy’s “citizen’s oil”. as joe says, the only people to help the poor of America, are the “good people of Venezuela”.
I’m sure they are glad to know that even though they are in poverty, they help joe earn his 400k salary at his “non profit”.

I think the author forgot one thing about the government of Venezuela: The army brass (and Cubans) has been given a lot of top posts in the civil government. The Army and government are being merged along with Cubans in the mix too.

Who needs a stable economy when you’ve got unicorns and rainbows for everyone?

I am hoping for the best for these people. Maybe they can regain a democracy, and cut off fuel subsidies and trade with leftist governments. And maybe they’ll tell China to stuff it.

Nice reminder. And Sean Penn— surely there is something from his pie hole on his commie colleague’s virtues.

I am too. Egypt has set an example, if the right commander steps forward and kicks our the Cuban military. Will that happen? Nobody knows.

That jerk Oliver Stone said that the protesters were just sore losers after the election. Penn and Stone both got hefty amounts of cash from Chavez, ostensibly for making movies in Venezuela.

>> “What movies did they ever make in Venezuela anyways?” <<

“Arachnophobia” (way back in the early ‘80s) began with scenes in Venezuela.

I meant those 2 actors paid by Venezuela to “make movies” and it was a lot more recent than Arachnophobia

I hope the author is right, but the fat lady hasn’t hung yet.

Uraguayans loved Chavez...when their banks failed he gave the account holders their money.

Remember how the TV liberals cheered endlessly for Chavez and Venzuelan Socialism??

It will be interesting to find out how much money these “Men of the People!” spirited away to overseas accounts.

Correction - maybe not movies made in Venezuela, but movies about Chavez and Venezuela.
