Venezuela's Political Disaster - October 8 2005

Dear Journalists,

In the last few years journalists and bloggers have denounced Chavez's abuse of power. It may seem hard for you from abroad to feel the pain of Venezuelans but I have seen loved ones suffer under the Chavez regime. Many Venezuelans are suffering traumatic stress from living under a deranged leader.

In my previous posting I compared Chavez's abuse to the Watergate scandal but on a huge scale. However, Chavez's abuse of power may be easier to describe if you would compare it to a domestic violent abuser who just tares your property apart destroying your belongings and what you have had worked for all your life.

Chavez seems to have lost all sense of duty and may have forgotten what is like to have to work to earn money. Chavez and his supporters have become filthy rich in just a few years. Where is Chavez getting the money? How much does he earn as president of Venezuela? Are his supporters just getting huge bonuses for the oil production while the middle class has to put up with the daily mental abuse of Chavez?

Attached herewith please find link written by University of Harvard graduate Internationalist Maruja Tarre describing Chavez's Nouveau Rich status:

In other matters, Venezuelans are writing letters to ABC Journalist Ted Koppel requesting to report the Opposition view of Chavez following the infamous interview on Nightline (link in resources). Attached below please find open letter to Mr. Koppel written by Internationalist Pedro Mario Burelli:
