Birds of a feather… S & P downgrades Obama’s and Chavez’s handling of economy
NEW YORK - Standard & Poor's downgraded Venezuela's credit ratings as it implemented a new methodology more heavily focused on political risk -- a key weakness in the oil-producing country.
S&P cut Venezuela's long-term sovereign rating to B-plus from BB-minus. The outlook on the new rating is stable.
Oh no. This will really make Obama mad.
Quiero que mi oro!!!
Mr. Chavez has gold and oil.... what else is there?
I sure hope S and P was rating Venezuela from New York. A reduction in rating there can result in a long jail sentence.
Get punished? Hell, they’ll get invaded if they keep trying to get their gold back from the banksters.
