Have you ever noticed how the Left is always prepared to vilify America and the Bush Administration for any perceived infringement on civil rights, yet they are totally silent when it comes to such countries as Cuba, North Korea, China, and Venezuela? The latest from Caracas is that Comrade Chavez is calling the Church leadership "morally unacceptable" in response to a statement released by the Catholic bishops statement accusing Chavez of concentrating power with his latest proposal to make himself dictator of Venezuela.

From News24:

Chavez's reform plan, which voters are expected to approve in a December referendum, also includes allowing security forces to detain citizens without charge during political "emergencies" or major natural disasters.

"Political emergencies?" Sounds like anyone who disagrees with Comrade Chavez had better watch out, as Venezuela will be in a constant state of "political emergency" if this communist dictator gets his way. What other excuses will this tin-plated dictator come up with as a means to incarcerate Venezuelans without charge? If this were proposed in the U.S., the streets would be filled with protesters. Instead, we are treated to a parade of celebrities hobnobbing with the Comrade.

I am still hopeful that the people of Venezuela will wake up soon and pull the wool out of their eyes before it is too late.
