Being spied on by a us government agency is like having the flu. Everybody has it. I don't think these NLG types have any sort of special claim on fame. The point if irrelevant. My point continues to be they are not qualified to be impartial election witnesses. Furthermore since what goes on in Venezuela s closer to incompetent keystone cops fascism it's clear to me they are sold out. Money talks in their case, that's for sure.
