Venezuela's Political Disaster - December 30, 2006

Dear Journalists,

Anderson Cooper of CNN asked if Saddam Hussein was crazy or just a dictator "Do you think he was -- I mean, was he crazy? Was he just a -- a dictator? What -- as you look at him as a man, as a human being, what was he?" during his great coverage last night of Hussein's execution. Isn't megalomania a mental illness? It is odd that most of dictators are narcissists and adore to have huge statues and images of themselves? Just look at pictures of Saddam Hussein, Saparmurat Niyazov, Muammar al-Gadhafi, etc.

Chavez in his alleged distorted mind may dream of ruling Venezuelans with a whip as an authoritarian leader. His most recent outrage is the announcement of closing of RCTV television network in Venezuela. RCTV started broadcasting responsible journalism since 1953, and now Chavez who seems unable to stand free speech from those who oppose him is refusing to renew RCTV's broadcast license as indicated in the following link:

Maybe Chavez would end up like Saddam Hussein, or Ceascescu after abusing the people's freedom of choice. Comparing President Jacques Chirac who has led France since 1995 and who still has the option for another presidential term, and infamous Chavez, it is easy to see a decent leader and a deranged man. Or would Chavez prove otherwise?

Cordially,

Venezuela's Political Disaster - December 25, 2006

Dear Journalists,

Fidel Castro gets special medical treatment not available to Cuban citizens as indicated in the attached article published by The Washington Times:

http://www.washingtontimes.com/world/20061224-092245-6087r.htm

It has been reported by Forbes magazine that Castro is among the richest persons in the world. I personally admire most of the rich people in the world, and would like to be as bright and lucky to be able to provide for my loved ones and have not financial worries. However, I detest the hypocrisy that Chavez and Castro are all about concerning financial wealth. They claim to the poor that they hate the rich, and Chavez has stated that being rich is wrong. But, obviously this statement allegedly does not apply to him nor to his family. There are pictures circulating the Internet for quiet some time showing Chavez's mother before and after he was elected president. Before she was a humble woman, now she wear designers' sun glasses and jewels in every finger of her hands. A similar situation is happening with Chavez immediate supporters where suddenly they are allegedly loaded with millions of foreign currency and real estate.

My point is why is Chavez neglecting the Venezuelan middle class? Why are there so many businesses that had been forced to close while the informal workers are taking over downtown? Where is Chavez's leadership to assure that every Venezuelan citizen is able to succeed in business and provide for their loved ones? What is the root of Chavez's hate? and Why are Chavez's policies destroying the middle class? Why does Chavez prefer to provide financial aid to foreign nations but neglects Venezuelan citizens?

Please make sure to read my blog since I have added messages not e-mailed to the press.

Cordially,
