It must be the fault of those greedy capitalist electric generators, which selfishly want fuel for their own energy gain.<br /><br />What an idiot he is. <br /><br />I feel bad for the poor people of Venezuela... at least the ones who opposed Chavez.

Socialism of any stripe doesn't work. When it doesn't work then it is politically necessary to look for scapegoats. The more it doesn't work the harsher the penalties have to be. And plausibility of saboteurs being the problem can be completely transparent yet it doesn't matter. For crying out loud even the AP said he presented no evidence. But that never matters.<br /><br />C. Andrew<br /><br />PS. You still have to love the AP reporter's name!<br />CHRISTOPHER TOOTHAKER <br />From Associated PressFebruary 21, 2010 11:51 PM EST <br />CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Hugo Chavez accused his adversaries on Sunday of sabotaging Venezuela's electricity grid as part of a broader plan aimed at bringing about the system's collapse — and his downfall.<br />Chavez said authorities must be "on the alert" and apprehend anyone who cuts electricity cables connected to the grid. Such sabotage has caused power failures in some regions and exacerbated the effects of severe energy shortages, he said.<br />"Be on the lookout! Patrols must be carried out to capture the saboteurs because those responsible must be caught and put in prison," Chavez said during his weekly television and radio program, "Hello President."<br /> <br />Referring to his government's adversaries, he said: "They think that's how they're going to topple Chavez, and that's what they're seeking, but if there's an electricity collapse, it won't be Chavez who is going to fall. Prepare yourselves, bourgeois folks, because it will be you who will fall."<br />The accusations were vague and Chavez provided no evidence supporting them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8839412.post-65740381043746134502010-02-27T10:08:22.177-06:002010-02-27T10:08:22.177-06:00Thanks.
