Venezuela's Political Disaster - September 2, 2006

Dear Journalists,

Chavez returned to Venezuela yesterday after a trip around the world paid by Venezuelans' money. There are several e-mails circulating about the expenses incurred by Chavez and supporters such as $5,000 a night hotel stays, etc. Please do not forget that Venezuelans are suffering severe foreign exchange controls while Chavez and supporters are living and traveling with the most glamorous luxury. One explanation given to me by one of Chavez's supporters some time ago is that the citizens always criticize presidential tours. However, Venezuelans had never been in this terrible foreign exchange controls.

Please visit the following blog http://venezuelareal.zoomblog.com/ where you will find articles related to Chavez. There is one PDF file article listing "Chavez's Ten Worth Decisions." (Las 10 peores decisiones de Hugo Chavez).

Please remember to read "Venezuela's Candidacy to the United Nations Security Council" document posted on my blog.

Cordially,
