CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- President Hugo Chavez called for radical changes to Venezuela's constitution Wednesday night, proposing reforms that would eliminate current limits on his re-election and extend presidential terms.


Venezuela President Hugo Chavez wants to be allowed to be elected indefinitely.


Chavez, speaking to the National Assembly, also proposed ending the autonomy of Venezuela's Central Bank, which would give him access to billions of dollars of foreign reserves. He also called for increasing the government's power to expropriate private property before getting a court's approval.

 

 

*waits patiently for Chavez to introduce 'correctional facilities' (read: forced labour camps) for 'dangerous entities' (read: opponents) and start purging his own party*

It doesn't work that bad in the first place. He started doing a lot of good.

But yeah it's turning sour and the guy loses credibility everytime he goes berserk against USA.

I heard it said if the US was succsessful in Cuba at the Bay of Pigs this wouldn't be happening now. Venezuala gets most of their suppport from Cuba. And in any case Castro was the only supporter early on.

If Congress would just pass The Lug Act of 2007, then we could repeal the 22nd Amendment and start enjoying the sweet benefits of Dictatorship in this country.

No, no, no! Lug is just the humble servant behind the idea, even he recognizes the superiorness of Emperor Bush.

 

 

Dammit. Well, is there anything we can do to get Lug into office? He's much funnier than Bush...

No way, GWB is way more funny. Lug would just do reasonable and rational things that would piss off the Congress. Now, if he hired me to be his Press Secretary, the hilarity would ensue.

Bush is funny in the way my dad is funny, whereas Lug is funny in that sardonic and well-thought-out kind of way. But yes, I have to agree, you as Press Secretary would raise the ratings at all the major news networks! You would be the Howard Stern of Press Secretaries - not because you're crass, but because we'd all be tuned in to see what you were going to say next!:thu:

Plus, it'd mark the first time that press conferences would be on a delay for live broadcast.

 

Those in the know would know when I was lying because I'd do a Dick Cheney impression. They'd also know when I was pandering because I'd do an Al Gore impression. And when I have no idea what they are asking, I'll do a GWB impression. More often than not, I'd just tell the reporters that they need to get to the point and ask the questions that they actually want answered. Nothing pisses me off more than a string of questions in an attempt to lead the Press Secretary.

I was thinking Steven Colbert for Press Secretary.:D

I'm not sure that his actual political beliefs line up with lug's.

 

 

It's a new cross-concept show: What happens when you mix The Odd Couple with The West Wing.

We could probably tag team the press conferences with good (ratings) results.

 

Colbert: Mr. Brudizzos, let me handle this one.

 

Me: Hey Colbert, how about you shut the {censored} up and shove your tongue up my ass. Then, when I want you to speak, I'll squeeze.

 

Me: Yes, next question. *points to LA Times asshole with hopes of making him cry*

 

LA Times Reporter: Emperor Lug is threatening to veto the Agriculture Bill, is this a wise move given the nation's dependence on food for survival?

 

Colbert: Well, you see, it...

 

Me: Did I squeeze mother{censored}er?!?!

That was a 'coffee out the nose' post!!! Especially the "When I want you to speak, I'll squeeze" line. :D

 

WINNER OF THE BONOMAN POST OF THE DAY AWARD!!!:thu::D

Oh, I forgot, you probably saw the picture of me executing a perfect Cleveland Steamer in BOALG's Mother's Hall of Fame.

Someone in here said that the educated and affluent were getting out of Venezuela. Anyone care to elaborate/confirm?

 

 

The flight from Venezuela has been going on since the late 90's. It has shocked me how much Venezuela has slide downhill in the past 10 years not only economically but socially as well. Some of my friends have left Venezuela in the past couple of years but most of them lack the money and really have no other place to go

What kind of support is Cuba in a position to give?

That's too bad. I've always had a fondness for Venezuela. I'm not even sure why.
