The archbishop of Caracas, Venezuela is denouncing the government’s attempts to install a Marxist Socialist regime through “unconstitutional” and “illegal” methods violating the rights and will of the people. – Zenit

When will our archbishops denounce Obama’s efforts to communize the United States?

Guatemala is a country where insecurity prevails and the state is in disarray. Power and order are in the hands of groups and actors outside the state. The law is ineffective. The police are useless and have lost respect of the citizenry. – Luis Fleischman

As our nation reacts to the Spill
And Obama decides not to drill,
Hugo Chavez, the sheiks,
And those climate-change freaks
Like Al Gore and Prince Charles are athrill.

Last week’s limerick:

SUB CULTURE
To my loved ones I had to say bye
With the knowledge I might have to die:
Does that mean that I oughta
Spend six months underwater
With a guy with a gleam in his eye?

Participatory democracy means that the people vote to give full powers to the president to carry out the will of the majority. Thus, participatory democracy is only the act of voting. After that there is no more participation because participation is embedded in the will of the president. – Luis Fleischman

Why think for ourselves? Let Obama do it for us.

When Honduras’ President Zelaya was deposed from power by order of the Supreme Court of that country, and with the majority support by the congress, Honduras was fast moving toward a Chavist dictatorship, transgressing the constitution and the laws. In addition to Honduras’ highest judicial body, the most prominent political and religious representatives of that country were warning about the Chavist risk. – Armando Valladares, El Heraldo

Obama follows the path of Jimmy Carter, fomenting Marxist takeovers and betraying our allies around the world.

J– D– stared at the crowd from the stoop of her apartment building with look of dismay.

Excerpt from an AP story on the apparent success of Hugo Chavez’s referendum that would allow him to remain president (i.e., dictator) for life. In the fourth paragraph — whether from naivete, imbecility, or malice — the reporter quotes by name a Caracas woman expressing dismay at the turn of events. He might as well have shot her in the head himself, right then and there. Now that her dissent has been bruited about the world, embarrassing the great Hugo, her life isn’t worth a red centavo.

Like the poor souls before them in the captive nations of Europe and Asia, Venezuelans will soon learn not talk to reporters from the U.S., or they’ll parrot the party line to save their necks — and journalistic morons will use their quotes to show that a murderous tyrant enjoys the support of his oppressed people.
