13. And if they vote for a National Socialist constitution that would be law of the land.

:eyes:

Don't take that as a serious comparison of Chavez and Hitler, take it as a critique of rule of law. Rule of law means nothing to me if it doesn't establish protection of civil liberties and property rights, the basic requirements of good government. Chavez's rule doesn't lave me particularly convinced he agrees with me on that.

Before you bring out the accusations, no, I don't support a US backed coup against Chavez or any other violent means of removing him from power. It's none of my business what Venezuelans do to their country, and while I'd like to see Chavez gone, that is their call, not mine.
