Maybe you mean "..."feel emboldened,"<br /><br />Maybe you mean "feel entitled"?<br /><br />It's almost that they now have the right to demand irrational & ridiculous things just because they are chavista.Island Canucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-87347297556871970812013-02-06T18:09:14.256+01:002013-02-06T18:09:14.256+01:00Loose cannons of any political stripe are bad busi...Loose cannons of any political stripe are bad business, especially when they don't have the moral authority to vent (in public). I suspect either immaturity (and most of us have been there at one time or another), or another financial cushion that allowed for such unthinking and intemperate behaviour.<br /><br />Funny how a classroom full of kids can (further) embolden some teachers into thinking that they are some sort of demi-god(dess). <br /><br />sydnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-1242930154908505012013-02-06T18:01:06.597+01:002013-02-06T18:01:06.597+01:00Maduro and Cabello are attempting to become the ne...Maduro and Cabello are attempting to become the next Hugo Chavez. Unfortunate for them, they are at best cheap Cuban copies of the original.<br /><br />Venezuela has laws against slandering the president by inquiring about his finances or those of his family. Do these laws also cover the vice-president or the head of the AN? It would be very interesting to see how much each these two own in the way of land, cash, businesses, banks, etc. Then open their bank accounts and tax forms to public inspections. After all, these are people in power and they should not have conflicts of interest.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080946.post-38759475721544292132013-02-06T17:55:59.332+01:002013-02-06T17:55:59.332+01:00wonder how much Núñez was paid to jump the talanqu...wonder how much Núñez was paid to jump the talanquera.

To get 2/3 they need 110 seats. It shouldn't be very difficult to buy off another 10 parlamentarians (or remind them of their deceased relatives, which is cheaper).
