cassini77 thats kinda funny using the words Chavez and democracy in the same sentence. I agree with Morphus, some body needs to topple this guy he is bringing his own people down and threatening the area. Sooner Chavez is gone the better for everyone.

ha! i was wondering who would step up first and now blame Bush for Venezuela. Bush didnt attack Iraq for oil if that was the reason he attacked Iraq he didnt do a very good job bercause we havent recieved any oil from Iraq.
Bush has been punded so hard by the left wing libs that he wont dare attack or assist Venezuela and Chavez knows it, thats why Chavez is so bolden he does not fear US and he knows his liberal palls in the US will support him.
Theres a revolution going on in Venezuela right now and I fear the Chavez thugs will win it. thats a shame because i think most Venezuelans want to be a free democracy.
By the way the news is now reporting that Chavez is in hiding during the protests.

vladimiro I dont think america is trying to bring anything to Venezuela. if you think Chavez is good for the people of Venezuela then you are very misguided.
Right now there is gunfire in Venezuela, people are trying to regain there freedom. The news says millions of people are pouring into the streets right now and the local police are taking the side of the protestors against Chavez.
Chavez is now threatening to send in the federal troops.

I'm still waiting for the US Military here to over throw the bush regime.

At least the people in VE has the guts and balls to take it to the streets, unlike US citizens who just wanna play the armchair quaterback and are too afraid of the police state we now have.

morphus you say Bush is a whore, etc etc etc. can you tell me what any of this has to do with Chavez, Venezuela trying to gain freedom and the effects this could have on Colombia? You are just a bush basher which has nothing to do with this topic. There are plenty of places where you can bash bush try ROSIE ODONNEL'S BLOG.

I'm happy to see the Venezuelans protesting show that, unlike FOX news reports, evidently Democracy is alive and Well. If not, no protests! Scotty--LOTS AND LOTS of Yankees(many many Texans) in Venezuela Man--who do you think runs many of these Oil Companies around Lake Maricaibo?? When was the last time you were in this Part of Venezuela?????

i give up! MM look man the Venezuelans arent protesting because democracy is alive and well in Venezuela they are doing dispite Chavez dictatorship. Chavez has just shut the power off at the very last free speech there is in Venezuela whish is RCTV. He plans to totally control the Venezuelan people , he wants to turn it into another Cuba. The people are fighting back, the police are taking the side of the people against Chaves, people are pouring out of buildings to march in the protest, the news says nurses and workers of all trades, school kids, everyone is marching against Chavez.
This is history being made as we talk. Maria Chachita Alonsa former Miss Venezuela and now movie star has appeared on TV today asking the US citizens to support her people and help over throw Chavez.
This isnt about Bush or Oil or America its about freedom for the venezuelan people.

"Venezuela would last 10 minutes under a U.S. attack."

Yeah sure, that's what they said about Iraq and the US has been there for what, about four years now?

That channel that got shut down has no one to blame but themselves. They constantly played anti-Chavez propoganda and even called for his murder several times on their programs. Can you imagine what would happen to any channel in the US that had people on it calling for Bush to get snuffed out? Freedom of speech has its limits and these idiots at RCTV crossed them!!

Oh, and BTW.........VIVA CHAVEZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well of course it amazws me it comes back to what i have always said. bring up any subject nowadays and a certain percentage of the population will blame the problem or situation on one of these things - its americas fault, its bushes fault, or its gods fault.
Forget that Chavez is the bad guy here, forget that he is trying to turn Venezuela into a dictatorship, forget that his best friends are Castro and Iran, for get that the people of Venezuela are trying and willing to put their lives on the line to be a free democracy, forget that history is being made right now in Venezuela...none of that is important lets instead slam Bush..ha..it amazes me what people priorities are.

And it is something the Venezuelan People must take upon themselves, if they want or do NOT want Chavez as their leader in Venezuela. I could care less as its none of my Business or that of the USA at this point. Venezuela presents NO threat to the US Mainland,,,Any Guns or Missiles aimed at our shores? I do belive the last time there was that failed Coup Attempt Bush had the CIA down there attempting to stir things up which as we know now, backfired. We have our hands full with the Iraq mess, then NK, Iran so an afternoon of a Spirited Pot Banging Episode is the least of our Worries at this moment! LOL Start worrying when you see some ABMs pointed towards Miami or Crawford, Texas! LOL BTW in an interview with some local Venezuelans who travel often to Miami, many say this deal is way overblown and who should know better then people who live there? US trade exports to Venezuela are presently at all time high and they still are one of our largest trading partners for Exports here in the port of miami. Like I say, go there and see for yourself! 2 hr flight from Miami! Venezuelan Woman are muy bonita also! Lots of Fun! I wish that Miss Venezuela who ran for Prez a few years ago would have Won, she is much easier on the eyes the Hugo but not as entertaining ! LOL

Venezuela is a democracy so stop saying it isn't just to justify your country sticking it's nose in there!!

It's people keep reelecting Chavez, just like they did last December when he won by a large margin of victory. Isn't that what dmocracy is? Rule by the majority? And there were many international observers there who validated his victory, so stop bitching!

No Scotty, as A Vietnam Era Veteran my "PRIORITY" earlier today as a Veteran was attending our Local Memorial Day Service where we payed Homage to our Veterans. That is my Priority every Memeorial Day before anything else like a beer drinking BarB-Q and that was fulfilled, Thank You. I am sure Honoring our Own US Veterans was also more of a priority then what was transpiring in Venezuela with the Pot&Pan Banging! Surprised you did not mention the true meaning of Freedom/Memorial Day,,, Happy Veterans Day to the Vets here who served and Thank You for your Service,,,We as a country are grateful,,,

españoleta says on May 28, 2007, 15:32:

seriously.... what else could be expected given chavez's political moves over the past years... hes just given himself unlimited power to legislate over nearly every aspect of economy politics social policts and... basically just about everything. The thing is, no matter how many people protest against this in the streets, Chavez has actually been voted into power (despite all irregularities that could be claimed about elections) and has survived to attepts to overthrow him and he is still president of venezuela. Despite all the populist speeches and politicies, there are a lot people who really support him (he gives people what they want which in the end is an essential part of politics nowadays). The key question here is why do they feel like chavez is the way forwards for them? Maybe due to all the previous "democratic" governments who have to a greater or lesser extent benefited from their positions in governement? Maybe the only option left is that we see once again how a charismatical leader becomes into some sort of dictator who remains in power until by whatever means he gives over power or is overthrown or even dies in power; maybe then venezuela can get a fresh start once again in some sort of cyclical pattern... I dont know...

What about a country's resources for the people and not everybody in Venezuela is anti-Chavez ?? The poor are pro-Chavez or does nobody give a damn about them as US corporate interests don't that's for sure and US influence in South and Central America has been like a poison and don't believe everything you see on tv or read in government controlled newspapers in western industrislized countries.

Venezuela is not a democracy it is a dictatorship /socialist and headed very quickly towards communist. Chavez has a hardon for Bush and the USA. he wants total control over Venezuela. He has yankees there because right now he m[needs them when the time comes he'll through them all out.
The part that makes me laugh about Chavez is that he talks tough but he's actually a little coward, every damn time there ios a protest he runs and hides he did it last time and he did it again this time. i think the guy is a winnie. I dont think he would ever lead anyone into battle, he hides under the desk.
I also have a feeling that some time in the future some Venezuelan is gonna frow a set of balls and blow this dude away.
