Venezuela: Let the stupidity begin.

[Traveller]

This article is almost laughable. Venezuela most have been jealous of all the lunacy in Ecuador recently so you know Chavez HAD to do something to regain the spotlight. Chavez is starting to fill the role of stooge and idiot quite nicely. Read this and see what you think.

Here's a point that should be made.....record oil prices for the last couple of years and his economy is in the pits.  Would love to hear him explain that one away.

Take care,

What do I think? I think he's a nut job and is driving his country into the ground. But then, I thought that BEFORE I read your article.....and he does have a lot of people (both in Venezuela and out) who think just the opposite of what I do.

I guess the poorest people of Cuba love Castro too.They think he is sort of a modern day Robin Hood.Problem is there are no more rich to steal from.Oh,except for Castro himself,worth 5 Billion dollasrs personally while a doctor in Cuba makes $20 a month but gets  food rashions.Try to take Castro's money you got hisarmy against you.
To tell ignorant poor people the rich stole their money is an easy sell.Providing an economy that produces much in a  state run society a harder job.
Whats harder to believe is there is an intellectual elite in South America that believes this sh!t too.They need a free  trip to Cuba.Make that a 20 year sentence.But I guess the intellectualelite act pretty dumb in the US also.
