I predict a vacation in Havana in the near future for El Presidente.

We can't carry on putting up with this madman,

Oh, boy, he's making his move.

Time for a coup.

[StopDemocratsDotCom]

CHAVEZ IS GIVING A RIDICULOUS SPEECH, PEOPLE ARE HANDING HIM NOTES WHILES WHILE HE GIVES SPEECH.

"...the situation in the country is normal."

Looks normal to me!

[HockeyPop]

G-d bless the Venezuelan people. Just remind them to keep the oil flowing and we'll be with them every step of the way to oust their neo Marxist leader.

[hchutch]

Anyone up for a pool on when the coup happens?

[colorado tanker]

Thank God! The Venezuelan people are not going to let Chavez turn their country into another Cuba.

INCREDIBLE!: TV STATION TAKEN OFF AIR SHOWING A VERY DRAMATIC VIDEO SHOWING A FLAG OF VENEZUELA AND WITH HANDS TIED UP SAYING THAT WHEN THE MEDIA IS TAKEN OFF THE AIR, THE FREEDOM OF PRESS IS OVER.....

Wow! Chavez isn't trying a coup, is he?

[Luis Gonzalez]

FYI!

[The KG9 Kid]

I read an article not too long ago that showed that Chavez was completely loathed by his military.

That, combined with half a million people taking to the streets calling for his resignation just can't be good for a South American leader.

He's outta there.

If the Guardsmen start firing heavy stuff at civilians, then it's serious time in old Caracas. Been there and done that in the 60's and 70's, folks, and when the shooting starts, it's time to stay off the streets and get into the cellar. I watched army copters firing 50 cal. machine guns down streets and at apartment houses at random and many people were killed. As we headed for the nearest cellar, a big bomb went off in the US Embassy as we passed by. It was a scary place during an awful, Cuban-inspired, leftist uprising. It could easily start up again now, but the leftists are in power now. What a change!

Thanks for the dramatic TV post!
