Venezuela: coercion and secret funding in signature drive!!
Edited on Sat Mar-13-04 11:44 AM by 9215
Some of this is dated material, but with all the controversy over the referendum vote in Venezuela it needs to be looked at.

It seems that foreign money and coercion are being systematically used to destroy a Hugo Chavez.

IMO Chavez should call for a moratorium on the referendum process until these irregularities are investigated.



US revealed to be secretly funding anti-Chavez voters!!!

1. I think Venezuela will blow
Look it has 15% of our oil. We could say it is theirs but any oil we want seems to be ours in someone Else's country. We have tried once not to let them nationalize the companies. I am sure we will do some thing else. What did the guy on C-span say to day. When Bush came into office Gas was 99 a gal. right out side DC and today it was 2.08 now just what is going to put Bush into a mood to do some thing about that? Can not have the voters to un-happy can he.
