Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez gestures during a ceremony where he was decorated with the Tiradentes medal in Rio de Janeiro, January 19, 2007. Chavez was set to win powers on Tuesday to rule by decree for 18 months so that he can nationalize oil and utility assets and press his drive to turn Venezuela into a socialist state.

LOL, do they really think after 18 months, Hugo is just going to say, "ok I'm done."
Not a great move by the opposition.
They will be lucky to regain power in this decade.

It's going to get worse before it gets better.
Could we please put this in "Breaking News"?
When will the Liberal Socialist Whacko Democrats wake up? The Home Team is going to have one hell of a game coming up.First we have to dump the whackos.
Fascisti. Muerta por los todos!
All the more reason to get rid of oil as one of our primary energy sources. Our dependency of it is one of our biggest national security risks. It's something we as a nation has to have, and too many countries that have much of are against us in every way.
We need to end this situation, somehow.
We should have greaed this pig when we had the chance.
Shades of Hilliary Clinton...
I wonder if he will start requiring his peons to say "Heil Chavez" and give an upraised salute when he gives speeches?
