Dictator 4 Life

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

Venezuela’s rubber-stamp congress moved closer to allowing Fidel Castro’s parrot, Hugo Chavez, to become dictator for life (or for a very long time at least). They gave the initial thumbs up to a series of so-called “reforms” that would allow Mini-Me, er, Chavez, to stay in office for a seven-year term rather than the […]

Is Castro (finally) dead?

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Lots of rumors floating around that Fidel Castro is finally dead.

The fact that, […]

Cuban-born actress Maria Conchita Alonso, who grew up in Venezuela and is a staunch opponent of President Hugo Chavez, plans to play a die-hard Chavez supporter in a film that takes a critical view of Latin […]

Saturday, April 21st, 2007

Hugo Chavez, Fidel Castro’s Mini-Me and dictator of Venezuela, is an insult to humanity and freedom-loving people everywhere.
Here’s an excerpt of a U.S. State Department report on the latest goings on in the oil-rich Latin American nation:

Fidel Castro kinda, sorta, like, maybe better

Saturday, April 14th, 2007

How come every couple of weeks or so we get another “Fidel Castro is kinda, sorta, maybe feeling a little better” story? Why not wait until he’s COMPLETELY recovered before reporting anything?
Methinks that’s because of the propaganda value, both to the world and to Cuba’s citizens yearning to be free, of keeping Castro what […]

Chavez using typical commie tactics

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

When you can’t get to your enemies, get those close to them:
-Intelligence agents raided the home of a close friend of anti-communist militant Luis Posada Carriles, who’s jailed in the U.S. but wanted in Venezuela for a 1976 airliner bombing, the friend’s wife said Thursday.

Venezuelans, welcome to life in Cuba

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

Venezuelans who voted in Chavez are now beginning to see he’s as bad as Castro. Shortages, which have been a way of life in Cuba for the last 48 years, are beginning to rear their ugly faces in Venezuela:
Ysacar Morales and her stepfather Daniel are sitting on the front step of their house […]

Castro, full of hot air as always, produces excess methane while complaining about ethanol

Wednesday, April 4th, 2007

Didn’t I already talk about this on this blog? Yes, I did.
For a second time in a row, the moribund, crusty Castro temporarily removes his foot from the grave, long enough to spew his hot, methane-laced breath about the Bush Administration’s proposed use of ethanol:
Castro chided the Bush administration for its support of ethanol […]
