40. Plainly you do NOT see. Please, do explain why I'm a "hateful person?"

Feb 2014

Is it because I want the people of VZ to be able to walk the streets without being murdered, to be able to wipe their asses with toilet paper purchased off the store shelf, to be able to go to the store to buy arepa flour and find it on the shelves? How DARE I feel for people who are paying HALF AGAIN what they were paying last year for basic goods--and that's when they can find them?

Yeah, if wanting that kind of stuff for the people of VZ, sure, I'm "hateful."

Competence isn't optional when it comes to national leadership, you know. Oh--wait!!!! You DON'T know...you think pointing that out is (waaah) "hateful."

Next time, come with an argument.

Two people murdered an hour per day. The situation that underlies that. Cenk was fair, too. freshwest Feb 2014 #111

I think that the logical next leader is Diosdado Cabello. MADem Feb 2014 #112

That should satisfy everyone, particularly if he's a honest man. I edited and asked questions, but freshwest Feb 2014 #113

The link says successive electoral victories. And 1% is still a win. The thing that struck me, IIRC, freshwest Feb 2014 #25

VP succession is weird in Venezuela. joshcryer Feb 2014 #26

That is weird. But certainly explains the anomaly. Looks like civil war in Caracas, maybe all over? freshwest Feb 2014 #27

I think it is overblown. joshcryer Feb 2014 #28
