AP: VP of Venezuela Has Announced Hugo Chavez has Died

One thing is for sure.....I doubt a former bus driver will ever be the president of the US. This guy is not even close to what Chavez was. But that wont change his stance about us tho.

Not sure if this is arrogance or ignorance, or both.

Comparing the last surviving superpower to a third world country is bogus. :doh

When we wasn't a nuclear armed, out gunning the next 14 countries COMBINED superpower we had a few humble beginning Presidents. The son of a frontierman, no real formal education, outside of politics no real achievements... held THIS Nation together when father fought son and brothers died on the same battle field but in different uniforms.

While some elitists may decry a simple working man leading our nation, it does seem to be a cry heard in hear constantly...."If I was in charge.....!" :)

I read a post about economic ignorance as well.... seems I recall some voo-doo economics called 'trickle-down'.... that wasn't from south of the Rio.... [/QUOTE]


Well considering I made no such comparison.....it is clear why you have confusion over arrogance or some hyped belief in ignorance.

Despite a voluminous opposition movement, the controversial leftist's successor is almost guaranteed to be Chavez's former vice president, current interim president, and handpicked heir, Nicolas Maduro. Yes, the same man who announced Chavez's death and who, earlier on Tuesday, accused a U.S. spy of somehow giving Chavez the cancer that led to his demise.....snip~

Yes, I would have to agree with you concerning those Elitists. Such as the Progressive Ideology dictates.....wherein they cry and whine about how they can do all that thinking for others. Yet even in the simplest of form cannot think for themselves.

Seems Maduro will walk in the same shoes as Chavez with his stance on the US. Perhaps you should try reading some of that while reading about what he will do why he is in charge and talking about that What If! ;)
 
Just got an update form the VP to my phone saying the VP of Venezuela has
announced that Hugo Chavez has died.
Articles and link to come soon.

RIP Hugo Chavez. You were a great president and a great leader of Venezuela and did many great things for your country.

Good riddance.

Dead leftist wanna-be dictators don't impress me.

You wanted someone like Alinsky to stir the crowd? He had died decades earlier. You have to realize Obama still had a character to play back then so trotting out another Alinsky acolyte would not have been wise.

No, not really...........But a Xtian douchebag ? ............Really ? Really ?.....................

Good evening, Bubba.

It seems that the former Obama didn't have nearly the problems the current Obama is having, though. Do you suppose he longs for the good old days? Maybe he regrets not leaving at the end of his first term if certain criteria, of his own choosing, BTW, were not met? :sinking:

Why is the Right so willfully ignorant of Venezuela ? Chavez was just a symptom and his death is no cure.................
 
Chavez was a true and honest man of integrity and much respected leader. Let us hope that whoever leads the people next will do Comrade Chavez justice in continuing to build a socialist Venezuela and that they remain steadfast in the face of tragedy.
 
Good, bad, or otherwise, rest in peace Hugo Chavez.

... ya know, Pol ... it's good to be reminded of that pledge of his. It's another thing the media forgot too.

Isn't Lowrey a Christian douchebag? Or is that who you meant.
 
Love or hate him, whatevs. RIP.
 
Politicians pay tribute to Chavez.....

President Michael D Higgins has said his thoughts are with the people of Venezuela after the death of Hugo Chavez.

Mr Higgins said: "President Chavez achieved a great deal during his term in office, particularly in the area of social development and poverty reduction."

Sinn Fein's Gerry Adams paid tribute to Mr Chavez, who he said had worked tirelessly to improve the lives of Venezuelan citizens.....snip~

I wouldn't celebrate just now. Knowing the Venezuelan people, Chavez's successor will be no different.........................
