Edifying read of the day: the WaPo about our implosion
This is your must read for the day, an editorial of the Washington Post, aptly coming out while the chavistas assholes celebrate the Chavez near-corpse victory of October 7 2012, 'cause they have nothing else to celebrate since.
Venezuela is on the brink of a meltdown. Yes I know a lot of people have been saying this, but the government soon will be in a corner that is so extreme they literally will have nothing that they can do.
Would not be surprised to see the opposition become more aggressive in the coming in the coming months. For the first time in a while, I truly believe Venezuela might have a chance (although the bottom will not be pretty).
Which is why I avoid blogs or posts that have more than a couple of dozens comments. When I read the editorial at first I did not even bother checking out comments had already been posted......
It has become kind of a reflex in me: when I hit a Page with 50 comments already, not only I do not read them but I do not even bother reading the post..... I know I know, it is kind of wrong but 2 out of 3 that I go ahead and read the post anyway I come out of it disappointed.
1) Comments are moderated after the sixth day of publication. It may take up to a day or two for your note to appear then.
2) Your post will appear if you follow the basic polite rules of discourse. I will be ruthless in erasing, as well as those who replied to any off rule comment.

Good WaPo editorial. Interesting that a PSF/Lefty/Conspiracy troll took over the comment thread for the WaPo editorial.

BT, a little bit of respect please, these days they are called "progressives"., not "PSF/Lefty/Conspiracy trolls".
DeleteThey will become more aggressive and blame everyone but themselves. Then they will threaten to "deepen the revolution."
