"Political language -- and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists -- is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."

¿Quien Es Mas Borracho?
Why did the Venezuelan people "turn" against Chàvez? Gee, what a deep question. Perhaps because, as responsible citizens of a democratic republic, they informed themselves and recognized that a reckless clown was maybe not the best choice for a permanent leader. That said, at least Chàvez has actually done something for someone besides himself and his externalized daddy issues. Nor has he ruined an entire country just to see if he could glue it back together with his eyes closed and one thumb up his ass. He's got some catching up to do.
