It's all relative




Strangely, in the paradise that is Venezuela, 33 people are killed by violence each day. Yet, Chavez rules a Bolivarian society of the greatest interest to Sean Penn, et al.

In the Iraq quagmire, the rate is only half as much. I suppose the right people are being killed down south or they count less than half as much as Iraqis.


You know, if I heard an IED go off, that's who I'd get behind too.

The biggest shock was when they actually voted down his proposed amendments that legalized some of his not-so-legal powers as dictator. Even with banned opposition media and revolutionaries working the poll they still got enough people together to vote it down.

So true. Hope is still down there cowering in the bottom of Pandora's box.
