The Venezuelan right wing opposition has got to be the world's most shameless.

71. Then WHY the snarky reply about the elections?

*It is clear that the People of Venezuela have spoken.

*It is also clear that the American 1%, Wall Street, and the Global Oil Corps have backed the overthrow of the Populist Reforms in Venezuela and other Latin American countries,
and heavily backed the Capriles campaign,
and sponsor most of the propaganda saturating the media and politics in the USA.

*It is also clear that many of the problems plaguing Venezuela that they are trying to blame on Chavez/Maduro existed LONG before they were elected.

*Venezuela belongs to the Venezuelans.
They have chosen their government in open, transparent, verifiable elections.
We can only wish our elections were as open, transparent, and verifiable as the elections in Venezuela.

*If Venezuela decides to limit the influence of "outside" money and interference from the Global 1% inside their country, more power to them.

*The Venezuelans don't care WHAT you think.

*It is none of our business.

VIVA Democracy!
