WOAH! Let’s Not Miss The Real Story!

Comrade Hugo Chavez is flexing his muscles and may ask the United States Ambassador to Venezuela to leave. That’s the headline. But what is a bigger story is what William Brownfield said!

Chavez said that William Brownfield could be declared a ‘persona non grata’ in Venezuela for his comments critical of announced nationalizations of key industries.

“It could be, if he continues meddling in the affairs of Venezuela that do not concern him… he could be declared persona non grata and would have to abandon the country,” Chavez said in a speech here.

“The ambassador from the United States has said: the obligation that any government in the world has, including mine, is to carry out a nationalization in a transparent, legal manner and offering just and rapid compensation to the people or owners affected,” he said.

Excuse me? No sir, it is NOT the job of government to carry out “nationalization” in ANY manner. Go read the Declaration of Independence for a dissertation about just government sometime.
This man is not qualified for public office or trust and should be replaced.
