The leftist apologists don't care that he's shutting down RCTV, because they accuse it of sedition against the government, and thus it deserves to be shut down:

From that awful blog ...

Did you notice that this guy didn't do anything in the way of citing sources for his story? And I can tell you that the story he presents is woefully-flawed, but I do not think it worth my time to try to answer a guy like that.

And then there's this:

". . . It's also a testimony to Hugo Chavez and how the country has prospered under him benefitting everyone . . ."

The evidence supporting the proposition that Chavez's tenure in government has been a complete disaster for the Venezuelan economy in almost every respect is overwhelming. Their oil industry is in near chaos, the plight of the urban poor has worsened in many areas, there's an outflight of human capital, an outflight of investment capital (disinvestment), violent crime is the worst it's ever been in Venezuela -- their murder rate is the highest in the hemisphere, and public corruption runs amuck. See VCrisis.com for a wealth of information, which cites sources as it is presented, unlike this leftie liar's exposition.

The exact same fecal deposits who enabled Stalin, Castro, Mugabe and every other thug of the last 75 years.

The Left is not for freedom - its chief value is championing equality. Which of course can be attained only at the expense of freedom. In this they are completely sincere. Its time we listened to them.
