  Thanks for the link, David!

  For a more topical account of the campaign ahead of Sunday’s referendum to end term limits on the presidency, you could look here:

  Chavez is a very very dangerous person. Sort of reminds you what it was like in Germany right before the war or Russia, when the Communists took over and people were trying to flee. It’s not quite there yet, but certainly moving in that direction. When any politician, whether right (aka Hitler) or left (aka Stalin) are so drunk on their own power and rhetoric, it only leads to people being hurt.
