Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez gestures during a ceremony where he was decorated with the Tiradentes medal in Rio de Janeiro, January 19, 2007. Chavez was set to win powers on Tuesday to rule by decree for 18 months so that he can nationalize oil and utility assets and press his drive to turn Venezuela into a socialist state.

Congress, which has no opposition lawmakers due to a boycott of elections in 2005Not a great move by the opposition.
They will be lucky to regain power in this decade.

If oil prices go down he is going to need the power to save himself.
