Hugo Is Stoked Up Again..............


Our favorite South American dictator is back in the news. Hugo Chavez announced he plans to change Venezuelan law so that he could remain “president” for life. What a shocker. Who could have seen that coming?
Seriously, Hugo… lay off the crack.
Of his 33 proposed changes, highlights include dividing Venezuela into federal districts governed by “communal councils of worker cooperatives,” a nationwide six-hour workday policy, ramping up the Venezuelan military, shifting the economy to rely more heavily on oil revenues and abolishing Venezuela’s maximum presidential incumbency of two six-year terms in favor of seven-year terms with infinite re-election potential.
"I doubt there is any country on this planet with a democracy more alive than the one we enjoy in Venezuela today," said Chavez after revealing his plan for constitutional reform. Right.
