My comment here was not about surprise that you did so, but simply about how stunning a comparison it was. Would be interesting to hear some of the blowhards who continue to justify things based on what Carmona did to try to explain how Chavez is different. I don't think anyone could really do so without problems, and it would be much more difficult still if they were put on the spot. Articles 3, 4, 6 and 11 in particular demonstrate Chavez' hypocrisy, and it would be the most fun to hear people defend him against those statements.AIOnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-75732848435219619192011-04-14T17:24:33.291+02:002011-04-14T17:24:33.291+02:00AIO

I certainly can't argue with any of the scores, either. Imagine that - Chavez is not only an undemocratic coupster, he's less democratic than the coupster who tried to depose him, yet still tries to claim the democratic mantle.
