Hugo Chavez killing democracy [View All]

in venezuala

He has asked the parliament for power to rule by decree. so much for this guy being any good. he is NG and is intent on killing democracy in that country. hopefully this will open a few eyes here to the truth. just because he gives oil away cheaply to people doesnt mean he is a good guy.

snip <Chavez, who will be sworn in tomorrow to a third term that runs through 2013, said he wanted a constitutional amendment to eliminate the autonomy of the Central Bank and would soon ask the National Assembly, solidly controlled by his allies, to give him greater powers to legislate by presidential decree>

eliminating autonomy of central bank? legislating by decree? And they are stuck with him for 6 years.
