Cancer has claimed Venezuela's Hugo Chavez at a time when members of tyranny's death watch may have had their attention on Cuba's Fidel Castro, among other places.

 
Progressive pigmentists will ( loudly ) note I'm allegedly celebrating the demise of a persons of color, to the exclusion of others, meaning White folks.
 
Let me correct that oversight by the inclusion of the following quota pick:
Nicolae Ceaușescu, Romania's ballistically retired dictator in 1989, is seen in much better days in the pictures below, with a Rogues Gallery of fellow global goons:
 
File:1974 Ceausescu Yasser Araffat in Bucharest.JPG
Yasser Arafat of the PLO
File:CeausescuKim1971.jpg
 Kim ll sung of North Korea
 
Let the record show his skin color, which is irrelevant since he was executed by people who looked just like him.
 
I now return to Hugo Chavez.
 
While much is made of his socialist philosophy, here are some figures from a subject, crime prevention, near and dear to my heart.
 
Homicide under his reign at least tripled from 6.000 in 1989, ten years before he took office, to 19,000 in 2011 and 32,692 in 2012.

These figures alone speak volumes about quality of life while he ruled. Police there were also subjects of routine international human rights investigations- another indelible blot on his record.  

I also remember happy crowds of flag waving Venezuelans forced to vote here in New Orleans last year because he closed their Miami consulate for fear of opposition- another world class low. 









 
Like his Romanian counter part I listed for mock PC ( political correctness ), Chavez was yet another strong man flexing his muscles to a Far Left tune.
 
Floating atop oil reserves some say rival those of Saudi Arabia, Venezuela's nationalized economy is either in ruins or a model of social investment, depending upon whom you ask.    
 
The nation's regional highs in both inflation and debt cast serious doubt upon the late Chavez as an economic miracle worker.
 
Socialism has failed to make nations richer elsewhere, so why would Venezuela be any different?
 
Chavez accused former US president George Bush of being Satan, but it seems his legacy is that of creating a hell on Earth while pointing the finger elsewhere.

"Venezuela's nationalized economy is either in ruins or a model of social investment, depending upon whom you ask."    I wasn't aware that those two terms are not synonymous! Unfortunately, our economy/nation is heading in the same direction.

As most here and all on the feed on the current meat of the 24 hours of "conservative" cheap talk radio, none

are energy experts. Nor does anyone even know or go back to El Presidente Rodrigeze (sp?) He totally bankrupted Venezuala. He imported oil into the U.S. to destroy 500,000 barrels of U.S. daily oil production.

An act of war. Did your representatives care? No. The most reveared conservatives said, this is great for the

economy. Go shopping. Add another 100 Wal-Marts. Destroy any industry that produces anything. Drive cheap.

Go to balls games spending hundreds of dollars. Hey isn't this great. The American citizen is going to vote for us because it FEEELS SO GOOOD!

CHEAP - CHEAP- CHEAP!

Everyones an expert because they saw an hour show on TV. Anything on Google is real and Anything not

on Google does not exist.

 

Anyone wanting to join what is true and real? Pay attention. Statistics show most people are wrong. Where are

you at. This does mean, the person saying something different has a better chance of being right than all those people saying the same thing.

And You?

Maybe Obama can move to Venezuela and take over his favorite dictators place and leave the United States alone. He can finish what Hugo started.

@carol williams I know Kira. She's a REAL fire brand! HOPE the middle aged frat boys listen! LOL

Carol Williams, good article.  The problem with the young woman's suggestion is, NONE of us can get those rich old white guys to listen to us!  But we've got to get through.

Notice Kyle Becker is posting at that site (Independent Journal), too.  He decided that, as a libertarian, TPN wasn't the right place for him.  But he was a really bright guy and I'm glad to see that "Reason's Jester" is still writing!

I SAY GOOD RIDDANCE.  AFTER ALL THE KILLING AND OTHER  GRIEF CAUSED WHAT DID IT GET HIM?

Cap, I see your writings appearing in other venues and I'm glad your visibility is growing. You have a very grassroots appeal with your down-to-earth (and humorous) style.

I wanted to make sure you see this article which presents a fantastic plan for getting the conservative message out. Written by a beautiful lady with beautiful values:   http://www.ijreview.com/2013/03/39751-an-open-letter-from-a-black-r...

"...ballistically retired dictator..."   Hahahaha....  That's the best kind!  :)

Comment by Jeff Waller on March 7, 2013 at 10:36am

I can't think of anything good to say about him...

Let me do the eulogy, please!  Can I?  Huh?  Can I? 

Comment by Cracker on March 7, 2013 at 10:29am

We have a person in AMERICA that can fill his shoes. As a matter of fact the person claimed to be a good friend of chavez. Hey, lets round up obama and his administration and send them to Venezuela! I'm sure bho will attempt to do a fine job improving their liberty & freedom! OP
