"Venezuela troops fought pitched street battles Friday with supporters of President Hugo Chavez..."

Interesting.

This is very good news... after the failed coup attempt, I don't think it's possible to achieve change rapidly, they have to squeeze Chavez slowly.

For those familiar with Caracas, this "disturbance" took place in Petare. For up-to-date news about Venezuela, (in English) see El Universal - English news summary. For the raw news in Spanish, just go to http://www.eluniversal.com/

Very interesting. Did anybody see the article in Friday's Wall Street Journal by Mary Anastasia O'Grady asking why the (US) State Department had declared the main opposition figure to Chavez, a military man, to be a "terrorist"? Sigh.

If the US would just get behind the right side on this issue, I think Chavez would be gone very, very soon. The question is, will we?

Chavez needs a grenade up his hind quarters...

Dodd was the bottom of a waitress sandwich at La Brasserie.

Ted "I killed Mary Jo Kopechne" Kennedy was the top.

Now Dodd backs the Clymer of Caracas.

I am shocked, shocked.

Dodd, Ted and Parrothead belong in the gutter with the full Mussolini.
