Venezuela's Political Disaster - July 21, 2007

Dear Journalists,

Deny Everything! That is usually the first reaction of those who are corrupted, and sick as it sounds the guiltier they are the more they deny wrong doing.

It seems that Chavez and thugs may also fall into this category as reported by editorial concerning the infamous dictator financing guerrillas en Mexico:

En riesgo, las relaciones diplomáticas con Venezuela by Georgina Pineda Sánchez:

Radio Caracas Television (RCTV) has initiated their broadcast via cable from Miami. However, Chavez is allegedly manipulating censoring RCTV even if they are based abroad.

"RSF: Venezuelan govn't plans forcing cable TV to transmit mandatory broadcastsReporters Without Borders (RSF) published a press release warning that President Hugo Chávez' government intends to "force cable television channels to retransmit president-ordered nationwide mandatory radio and television broadcasts."

Chavez feels all powerful because he has money, and does not care about people's dignity and needs. Please know that the Venezuelan currency has basically no value compared to international currencies. So, Chavez is showering in luxuries that Venezuelans have lost.

Vocabulary Disagreement with Venezuelans

To Whom It May Concern:

When I decided to help out Venezuelans including all my loved ones in the abused nation the first thing I noticed is that they express themselves calling corrupted government officials with animal names.

First of all, they call the corrupted "animales, perros, monos, iguanas, etc." that is, animals, dogs, monkeys, iguanas, etc. I really have a hard time with this type of vocabulary. As an animal lover each day that passes I see that animals are more loyal, honorable and honest that many humans. So, if at times I make reference to sources using this type of vocabulary please know that I disagree completely with their vocabulary usage.

I would recommend calling the corrupted officials as such without any usage of respectable animals!

"Humane Education can be defined as "a process that encourages an understanding of the need for compassion and respect for people, animals and the environment and recognizes the interdependence of all living things."
