The constitutional changes draft has been leaked: the path to an eternal Chavez dictatorship
Venezuela News and Views ^ | 6/22/07 | Daniel

Today we were treated to the leaked draft on the constitutional changes planned by Chavez. It is a blue print on how to create an authoritarian state by creating a social system from where no opposition could ever have the possibility to rise someday to challenge Chavez. All the changes are engineered to effect this goal.

No more private property except your personal belongings......

The air borne media will have rights to emit only if they serve educative purpose.......

The automony of Universities is done with....

Decentralization will be done with.

Governors and mayors will subordinated to special vice-presidents. Mayors can be removed almost at will by the National Assembly. And anyways, elected Governors and Mayors will be gutted of most meaningful power they might have. That is, they will be left with picking up the garbage and be blamed for anything else that doe snot work.

And more, including of course unlimited reelection......

Some of the latest from Venezuela. This blog provides information about Venezuela in English.

The link provides more details on the Chavez Cuban- style constituional changes.

Chavez spoke on Saturday June 16th of the need to centralize power after a visit to Cuba.

This is his response to the student protest movement of recent weeks.

But... but... but... Jimmy Carter said Chavez was a good guy. He said his recent reelection was on the up-and-up. He said the Americas need more Hugo Chavez’s. Jimmy Carter should know, he used to be PRESIDENT... /sarc

Maybe we could get Hugo to drink some of that Vladimir Putin tea. And I know just the waitress to serve it to him.

Anyone who wonders just what the 2nd amendment is really for should just look at what is happening in Venezuela.

Maybe Chavez will get carter to move down to paradise and be a member of his cabinet. That would be a good thing.

Hugo Chavez is establishing a Communist dictatorship. Once freedom is liquidated, he will be President For Life.

“Anyone who wonders just what the 2nd amendment is really for should just look at what is happening in Venezuela.”

That should be a tag line. Unfortunately as important an issue of abortion, gay marriage and illegal immigration is, A SCOTUS of Constitutionalist justices is more important.

A Democrat as President will be our downfall. This is the only thing that keeps me thinking about what I will do if Rudy wins the primary. I know what the RAT will do and the prospect is not looking good.

Venezuela's only catching up with us. Let's analyse hese points one at a time...
1.No more private property except your personal belongings...Kelo decision - US Supreme Court
2. The air borne media will have rights to emit only if they serve educative purpose...Campaign Finance Reform.(thanks McCain/Bush)
3. The automony of Universities is done with...Liberal tenure anyone?
4. Decentralization will be done with...Interstate Commerce Act...?

Sounds like Carter just advised Chavez to catch up...

Socialism is here, why worry about our neighbors now?

The Venezuelans voted for this. Let them live with it.

If it gets bad enough they will rise up. Until then :Enjoy Venezuela, you got what you wanted.
