Reply #27: Oh, those Chavez "critics" will say anything, as long as the reporter [View All]

carefully leaves out any evidence whatsoever of what these "critics" "say," and never provides anything in quotes or a name to go with it.

"He won a (sic) overwhelming victory in a recall referendum in 2004, but his critics at home and in Washington say he is centralising power in an increasingly authoritarian system and cracking down on political opponents."

He won a overwhelming victory in a recall referendum in 2004, but.....

but

but

but

but

his "critics" at home say....

he is

"centralizing power

in an

increasingly authoritarian system..."

wassat? wassat? an "increasingly authoritarian system?"

"increasingly"--from where to where? spectrum of not-authoritarian to increasingly authoritarian", please! facts? evidence?

"authoritarian" --as in, say, the President openly breaking the law, committing felonies, and vowing to continue doing so?

or, as in the President arresting and jailing thousands of unnamed persons, on no charges, and torturing them?

and

"cracking down"...

hm-m-m, cracking heads? jailing? executing? shutting down newspapers?

wassat? "cracking down"?

"on political opponents."

Who? What? Where? When?

----------------------

This phrase keeps showing up time and time and time and time again, in the war profiteering corporate news monopoly press. "Increasingly authoritarian." No evidence. No names. No quotes.

Personally, I think it came from Cardinal Castillo Lara, the Opus Dei fascist prelate of Venezuela, who spent his career in the Roman Curia, running Vatican finances, until he was forced to resign during the Vatican banking scandals of the 1980s. HE has said, and I quote, that Hugo Chavez is "increasingly authoritarian."

"self-styled socialist" and "self-styled leftist" are also phrases of choice by the Bush lapdog press. Yeah, and elected by millions of people--the great majority of Venezuelans who just so happen to want that "self-style" of government that shares the country's oil profits with the vast poor population, builds schools and medical clinics in poor areas never before served by government, and represents ALL of the people of Venezuela, not just the Bush-ass-kissing, tiny, rich oil elite.

Self-styled.

And Bush is a "self-styled conservative" with an $8 trillion deficit. Why don't they call BUSH a "self-styled SOMETHING"? How about a "self-styled son of a bitch"?

Chavez was ELECTED by his people--in the most highly monitored elections in the world. Bush was "selected" by the Supreme Court, and then by Diebold and ES&S with 'TRADE SECRET,' PROPRIETARY vote tabulation software owned and controlled by Bushite corporations! He is a "self-styled" and "self-selected" ILLEGITIMATE president. Chavez is the genuine article.

God, I hate these so-called journalists. Whores. Liars. Polluted minds.
