Editorials that hurt: no holds from the New York Times

If Hugo was pissed off last night, imagine his temper this morning if they bring him the translation of today's New York Times editorial. I love, LOVE, the last paragraph.

He should heed the message. Rather than lash out at his opponents, Mr. Chávez must accept democratic limits to his rule. He should stop trying to extend his control — by hook or crook — over all of Venezuela’s political and economic institutions. He should abandon for good his push to change the Constitution so that he can run for a third term in 2013. Venezuelans deserve the chance to choose a competent government.

Here Patricia! Your cue for your CNN report.

Comments policy:

1) Comments are moderated except for the first day of the post publication where they will appear immediately. If you comment after the first day it may take up to a day or two for your note to appear.

2) Your post will appear if you follow the following rules. If you wrote in the open window period, I will be ruthless in erasing any comment that do not follow these rules, as well as those who replied to that off rule comment.

3)COMMENT RULES:
Do not be repetitive.
Do not bring grudges and fights from other blogs here (this is the strictest rule).
This is an anti Chavez blog, with 95% anti Chavez readers that have made up their minds over fourteen years and thus trying to prove us wrong is considered a troll. Still, you are welcome as a chavista to post, in particular if you want to explain us coherently as to why chavismo does this or that. Though I am not holding my breath.
Of course insults and put downs are frowned upon and I will be sole judge on whether to publish them.
