Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez Dead at 58 After Battling Cancer - YouTube

Say what you want about him I think he was a man that cared about his people. He wasn't perfect, his system wasn't perfect. It is common knowledge that he was elected 3 times and survived a coupe when the people forcibly put him back in office.

I respect the man for trying to find a balance, sadly he could not fit that thing called human nature into it. May he rest in peace and god speed to him.

Sean Penn sure got a ration of sh*t for being friendly with the guy. I'm pretty ignorant about Venezuela but it sounds like the bigshots in DC were pissed off about him not sharing/giving the country's oil to us.

Don't know, I bet there was a lot of people there who would definitely agree with him though.

Ok...I will! Chavez was a vicious, evil, tyrannical, America-hating, terrorist-loving, cruel, spiteful, nasty, inhuman, sadistic, wicked, immoral, pathetic excuse for a human being. he was an assassin and torturer. A liar and a con man. Bolivian Fascism is dead along with it's Fuhrer Chavez. .

Good riddance to Bad rubbish says I. Hell yawns open for him.

It bothered me that someone had to leave their own country to receive good medical care. That doesn't say much for Venezuela's health system.
