Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez dies
- themstheones 14y agoWow. Only 58 years old too. Too young! He's fighting for justice and democracy in heaven now.
- chad_oliver 14y agoDemocracy? He spent time in jail for leading a coup d'etat.
- elsewhere 14y agoYes, a coup d'etat against a corrupt dictatorship. And he has since preached and respected the constitution again and again.
- gerardo 14y agoMan, this is going to get _uglier_. (I'm from Venezuela)
- mladenkovacevic 14y agoI think there's some late night meetings going on tonight at the Pentagon. So what's the protocol here.. what's a respectful period of time to wait before the US machine throws some money towards destabilizing the region and gently nudging Venezuela towards getting with the program. As for the people of Venezuela. Don't allow yourself to be divided. Rich, poor.. whatever. Don't go to bed with the devil.
