Buh-bye Venezuela

It's pretty much set in stone that Chavez is not going away anytime soon, thanks to the opposition parties that withdrew from the congressional elections. This clears the way for Chavez supporters to take over the congress and continue turning Venezuela into a mini-cuba with Hugo becoming president for life, and our boy claims he is upset over it and naturally blames the US. Chavez accused President Bush late Thursday of being behind the withdrawal of Venezuela's major opposition parties from Sunday's congressional elections, saying he had proof the CIA was "encouraging this new conspiracy." He provided no details. Duhh..... I love the US' response though.... "The decisions made by the political parties were their decisions alone," U.S. Embassy spokesman Brian Penn said. "We are simply not responsible for everything that goes on in Venezuela." LOL
