It is good to know that Hugo Chavez is wetting his pants over this. It takes a no-nonsense tough union boss to beat the crap out of a smirking, bs-ing, incompetent, lying dictator like Hugo Chavez.

So that's where Jimmy went.

The other parties have joined forces and nominated only one candidate to face Chavez Dec 15. That and this should keep Hugo busy until then.

Yep. It looks like the Thug of Caracas has opponents of all kinds these days. If they hate Chavez, I am all for them.

I'd like to think the CIA has actually managed to play a hand in this. Our capabilities are much better in Latin America than they are in the ME. Chavez is a serious threat. We need to keep him occupied in Bannanaville instead of letting him romp around the world creating an anti-american coalition.

Definitely not good news for Chavez. As long as Ortega is loose Hugo should be very aware of his surroundings.

"It takes a no-nonsense tough union boss to beat the crap out of a smirking, bs-ing, incompetent, lying dictator like Hugo Chavez."
It'll take more than that Kitten Festival, but if the guy can get help, he might just take Chavez down.
I have maintained on several threads that Chavez is a greater threat to the peaceful political progress of Latin America as a whole than many people realize. He is directly connected with Lopez Obrador's campaign in Mexico, he is providing safe haven for the drug-running Leftist guerrilla army the FARC in Colombia, he is sending out political organizers to countries like Nicargua, Honduras, and Panama; and much more. The guy is more dangerous than a lot of people appreciate.

'His bold prison escape was unexpected, and illegal'
illegal prison escape. mmmmmmm
illegal was put in there because some of us might not realize that you can escape from prison legally somehow?
btw, is this Bush's fault? aiding and abetting?

Once the Communists take over they get rid of the private unions.

It's reported that Venezuela has the highest oil income ever. That's only because of the price of oil...which will go down.
Truth is Venezuela is producing less oil due totally to the fact when Chavez pulled what he pulled with the oil industry all the know how guys left. Chavez brought in his own men in and they're doing a p*ss poor job. When oil goes down...Chavez will have a huge financial problem. And it's a comin' ... chavez is moving into trouble waters faster then most know...

This is news to me. I guess MSM didn't want the socialist pukes in this country to have something else to whine about. Chavez is causing a world of trouble and needs to be put down.

They had a chance to do that in 2001. Regrettably W's State Department counseled against that (Freepers at the time were for it!) and the temporarily successful coup against Chavez collapsed.

Finally, a union leader lefties can hate.

And who helped him out with that...FIDEL CASTRO...aren't cuban military intelligence in Venzuela in plain clothes...creating lots of problems we're not hearing about?"
Yes; but we are hearing about some of them, though the total number of Cubans working in Venezuela for Chavez numbers in the tens of thousands:
