Satan's Poop Inc. Paila Master: VenezuelaFor those that just want to know about the bizarre, wonderful country of Venezuela and its even more bizarre current GovernmentReview of the Hugo Chavez system, Version 6.0 beta- June 14, 2008 This week we saw the completion of the introduction of Hugo Chavez 6.0 a more user friendly, gentler beta version of the well-known Hugo Chavez system. The new version is, like all previous even numbered versions, an attempt to remove some of the confrontational issues of the odd numbered versions. However, as all other previous even versions, this one is likely to be short-lived and replaced by a more robust and intransigent version.The biggest change in the new version is that it is not FARC..http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/13.html#a3966 A little late, but the Devil much easier to find now!- June 12, 2008 When I started this blog almost six years ago, I was not sure where this was going to go, sort of assumed most of the readers would get here via salon.com and never gave much thought to getting the domain names. In fact, I remember even thinking that nobody would ever want to type something like www.devilexcrement.com to get to my blog anyway. Over the years, people have asked and I really never thought much about it. Then last week, while traveling I thought of checking if the names were...http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/11.html#a3965 Chavez truly bizarre as he perfomers triple summersault on Intelligence Bill and goes into one of his "loving the people" moods- June 11, 2008 Today, President Hugo Chavez performed a triple summersault, reversing:--All of the intelligence Bill, rather than certain parts as he said he would do last Sunday, abrogating the whole thing.--Giving up his ability to reissue it under the Enabling Bill, which expires soon--Sending the Bill to a National Assembly that after almost a year and a half may not remember how to legislate under the new Constitution.A truly remarkable turnaround, another one in what is now a long string of...http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/10.html#a3964 Tales from the Fascist Revolutionary Crypt- June 10, 2008 Remember the Venezuelan National Guardsman captured in Colombia with 40,000 bullets for the FARC's AK-47 riflesThe same one that General Fredys Alonso, Commander of the Venezuelan National Guard said "When we received the information, we immediately began to inquire and I can say with all propriety that there does not exist neither in the payroll, nor in the ranks of the National Guard an active or retired member with the name Manuel Agudo Escalona"Remember that It was all another...http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/09.html#a3963 Chavez flip-flops again as he asks the FARC to release all hostages and give up their armed fight- June 9, 2008 In yet another flip-flop and about face in policy, Hugo Chavez called today for the FARC guerrillas to give up their fight after forty years of death and destruction in Colombia. Chavez' statement represent a remarkable shift in policy by the Venezuelan President who enraged many in the region, including Colombia's Government, by asking last Fall that the FARC be recognized as a "legitimate insurgent force". Moreover, the Venezuelan President called on the FARC to give up all of the...http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/09.html#a3962 As Chavez backs down on intelligence Bill, everything these days seem to be an error by the revolution...- June 8, 2008 It is part of the clueless nature of this fake revolution that after a Bill is conceived, drafted and executed by Hugo Chavez under the umbrella of the Enabling Bill, his servile collaborators all defend the Bill, telling us in grandiose and pompous words why it was necessary and indispensable and how the law does not violate the rights of anybody. But can you get anymore bizarre than the autocrat himself coming out and saying he can not defend the undefensible...Can they be any more...http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/08.html#a3961 When the Rule of Law is non-existent and abuses by Government officials are the norm in Venezuela- June 6, 2008 The Head of the Venezuelan Intelligence Police (DISIP), in the face of the outcry over the new "intelligence" Bill issued by the Chavez thuggish Government, defended the Bill and its provisions that force Venezuelans to become informants, using this wonderful argument which reveals how this guy's brain has no concept of what a democracy is and I quote word by word this jerk's words:"Rangel Silva (The Head of DISIP) disqualified those that say the Law will create "informers", because, according..http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/06.html#a3960 When your Minister of Justice and the Interior is a thug and a badass- June 6, 2008 I am still traveling but friends always keep me informed of the most up to the minute news. You have to love it when the Minister of Interior and Justice in charge of police and on the enforcement of the new "intelligence" Bill is called a thug by Investors Business Daily (), however IBD will never have to buy a used car from the man anyway.But when old reliable Der Spiegel tells us that the FARC thinks that Rodriguez Chacin is a "real badass" that was seeking such "humanitarian" and "caring"..http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/05.html#a3959 The new "intelligence" war of the Chavez Government- June 3, 2008 It is perhaps symbolic of this Government that while crime in the country is reaching civil war proportions at around 40 homicides per day, the Government is more concerned at trying to turn Venezuelans into informers and collaborators in order to protect the country&146;s &147;sovereignty&148; and &147;integrity&148;. Who cares if crime is a problem if they have their own war to fightWhich at the end of the day are empty words from a Government that lets Cuban intelligence officers run the...http://blogs.salon.com/0001330/categories/venezuela/2008/06/03.html#a3958 |
