SNIPPET: "CARACAS, Venezuela — The owner of Venezuela's only remaining TV channel that takes a critical line against President Hugo Chavez was arrested Thursday, raising concerns the government is carrying out a widening crackdown aimed at silencing opponents.

Guillermo Zuloaga, owner of Globovision, was arrested on a warrant for remarks that were deemed "offensive" to the president, Attorney General Luisa Ortega said.

Zuloaga said military intelligence agents detained him at an airport..." i

Well, Sean Penn did call for anybody that refers to his buddy Hugo as a “dictator” to be thrown in jail. Hugo is just granting Sean’s wish.

From National Public Radio (NPR):

"Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has been visiting countries such as China, Iran and Russia as part of an effort to build a 'strategic alliance' of interests not beholden to the United States. He considers the United States his arch enemy.":

Look and learn. Every time the leftist lunatics start their rabid vitriol against Rush, Beck, Sean and other conservative talk people, they are setting the stage to destroy free, political speech. Nothing the leftist Nazis do is without guile.

Definitely. I think Bambi’s going to stage something (his Reichstag Fire) and try to tie it to the Tea Party and claim that they were “incited” by Fox or, perhaps, by Rush Limbaugh. In any case, it will be his excuse for disappearing them.

It has actually taken Chavez several years to get to this point. But Chavez laid the groundwork, Bambi learned from it, and now Bambi is far advanced in his dictatorial program.

Sounds like something a dictator would do.
