I figured the Freepers would be celebrating, and I was right.

Celebrating Chavez dying, of course.

Along with the usual "rot in hell" stuff, they are saying it's no coincidence that Stalin died 60 years ago today.
And of course, saying Obama is ordering flags to half-staff. (He's not, but in Freeperland, any accusation is 100% true, you know that.)

Of course, Freepers are too fucked up in the brain to see how good those three would be for their standard of living.

Due to his embracing of vicious dictators like Ahmeananutjob and Mugabe, and his penchant for asinine stunts like when he had Bolivar dug up.

But I'm not celebrating, I am concerned though, I think there will be a power struggle, maybe even a civil war now that Chavez has died.

making the rich pay their fair share in taxes is a bad thing!
Of course, with them being adamantly opposed to tax hikes on the rich, it would be safe to assume that these Freepers are also rich. Right?
