There seems to be a little confusion about Barinas. Some are reporting a HQs burned there, other sources reported cars. The President only mentioned 2 at the time he spoke.

death. They thought all their money and backing from the US would win it for them. The Right never can win anything without violence.

They should be charged with treason and treated as traitors. Chavez was far too kind to the traitors who tried to oust him. Here they would have received the death penalty. Not that I am in favor of that, I am not. But jail for life would be appropriate imo.

Or just the people they voted for who are defending their vote?

If there was any cheating in that election, it came from the Right funded by the US.

Thrilled with Venezuela's victory. The people didn't fall for the phony 'moderate' candidate.

Smart people, they know their history. And ours in that part of the world.

And rumors are that these places were burned by chavistas as psyops.

A million chavistas jumped ship, Maduro, you're not doing yourself any favors by slandering half of the population of Venezuela.

that second pic shows two vehicles on fire.

If you have any evidence of such claims, please do so.

If you say that he should control his violent supporters, the same could be said for Maduro's when they threatened many people during the elections.

All Capriles has called for was a cacerolazo, which is nothing more than people banging their frying pans or what-have-you as a form of expressing their disagreement with a government (which had a LOT of participation tonight, btw, even in sectors that were mostly chavista), and a peaceful march towards CNE offices to submit a document demanding the citizens' rights for a full recount (what's so bloody fascist about that?). You can play the blame game all you want, the fact of the matter is that there is not one shred of proof that says that Capriles has called for violent attacks against the government.

Oh, guess what, motorcycles, just like these small flair ups we're seeing.

This is what the protests actually look like: http://www.panorama.com.ve/portal/app/push/noticia62481.php

though.

Lol, I'm laughing at the attempts to 'blame' others. Remember during the Bush years when his supporters used the same tactics? They were always 'blaming' others when they screwed up.

We must want that oil pretty badly.

This hideous little tumor finally hit the jackpot spreading his poison, by giving his stupid violent followers a "justification" in butting into the lives of good people and murdering some innocent people just to show they could, if they wanted to do it.

What a thrilling sense of power, killing Venezuelans. stealing their lives. and bringing suffering and grief to their loved ones.

It's not going to work, maggots. People will just hate you even more, for real reasons. You're heading for a memorable wake-up moment in your own lives, one day, and you'll know you have it coming to you.

You'll remember though you happily used him as a source before.

Cristina Fernandez the only leader allowed to visit Chavez in hospital, but declined

Argentine president Cristina Fernandez was the only leader given the option of visiting the ailing Hugo Chavez in hospital but declined, according to Venezuelan independent journalist Nelson Bocaranda who was the first to make public the news, 19 months ago, that the charismatic leader was suffering cancer

“The Argentine president was the only one allowed to see him given the close relation of Cristina with the daughters of Chavez. Since his daughters attended president Nestor Kichner’s funeral, she was very moved and endeared to them. Cristina had the right to go in and see him with Chavez daughters but she declined because she preferred to keep the image of the Chavez she had known: a robust Chavez and not a frail and sick Chavez”, said Bocaranda who not only broke the news of the disease but has since, and despite the iron clamp on all news surrounding Chavez true health condition, has reported regularly with unquestionable accuracy events and evolution of the disease.

In an interview Bocaranda revealed the evolution of Chavez disease, which he pledged to make public only after either the leader’s full recovery or death.

“In October 2010 he was diagnosed a problem in the bladder and prostate and recommended he kept to a strict agenda which he didn’t. It was only in June 2011 that doctors detect a first abscess in his rectum with complications and diagnose cancer” said Bocaranda.

He was told to rest but to keep the (Bolivarian) revolution going and reach the election and win it, the only objective of his life, and against the will of his family, “he continued with his hectic agenda”.

From my thread posted in early March:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/11089721

... at how low these right-wing pigs can go. Burning buildings with people inside. Beating a former activist of their own side almost to death. Capriles truly should be held responsible for all this mess.

He may well wind up in jail. But definitely Bocaranda is in deep shit.

this is the last of chavismo. the country is sinking.

I wonder if Bocaranda will be the fall guy for last nights mishaps (probably, on the murder side of things, a quiet night in Venezuela).

and those twisting themselves into pretzels to support this lowlife, I hope their consciences torture them to madness one day.

Stay classy.

What's hilarious is that in this post you say Capriles will "be held responsible" (assuming he'd be arrested or charged) and in another post you say you hope Maduro will be able to keep the peace.

You don't arrest the guy who got half the damn vote and then expect peace and quiet.

But they have to get rid of Capriles because he's not going down quietly.

He's probably done for.
