News coming through From Caracas, Venezuela..
That fat, little munchkin dictator of Venezuela may be on borrowed time. He has used a cowardly, compliant assembly of elected reps from the provinces to practically disolve the constitution, shut down any opposition TV & press, claimed the oil industry for his own and otherwise enslaved his people.
Now the people are in the streets..not just college students, but the working class and the wealthier people. People aged from high school to senior citizens.
Never mind that His Majesty Hugo is the darling of Danny Glover, Harry Belefonte and the rest of the Hanoi Jane hollywood types..his people don't like him !
How did he get into power ? He appealed (in this former democracy) for the many votes of the "gimme" crowd that want govt handouts.
He promised them the moon & stars..but the only moon they got was him "mooning" them after the election..the only stars they saw were produced by a hired thug's club !
There have been dictators from the right and the left...but in the last 50 years the chances are MUCH greater that they will arise from the left.
Watch the news..protests by the people are strong in Venezuela now..how long before " Adolph Hogo Munchkin" starts killing them ?
