Unbelievable; the British and US bloggers have no shame -- gloating about someone's disease and openly expressing hopes of an immediate demise of the president of a nation that has never done harm to anyone. I'm also talking about you, Geoffy. And yet you dare to show offense when someone comments on dead British occupiers in Afghanistan. Have you got no shame.

Jul 10th, 2012 - 02:15 pm - Link - Report abuse 0What is it, Geoff? After your little outburst the other day, I'd like to know why is it OK to hope that this man's life be eaten away by cancer? I thought it was a matter of decency to you not to express this sort of disregard for human life -- that was what I understood after your objections to my comments about British soldiers. Why then did you openly express the hope that Chávez's life be 'immediately' terminated in the post above? Is it because he's not British that his life is less worthy?
#14 “Why then did you openly express the hope that Chávez's life be 'immediately' terminated in the post above?”
Jul 10th, 2012 - 10:23 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Exactly. Answer that question, unless there isn't a good reason and you'd like to retract your “hope”?
Why the corrected grammar and logic,
Jul 11th, 2012 - 09:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0or why the 'immediate'?
'Immediate' serves two purposes
(i) I don't subscribe to 'better the devil you know'. With Chavez unable to stand for the imminent presidential 'election', there is some hope that things might improve for the Venezuelan people.
(ii) With Chavez immediately out of the way (ie before the next Mercosur meeting), there is some hope that the VE-manipulated entry of VE to Mercosur may not be the unmitigated disaster for the countries not yet under the 'Bolivarian' leadership of this Great Dictator.
Sometimes 'immediate' is to the advantage ... like in a Blitzkreig, ...like in a Paraguayan impeachment. Hmm.
Very colourful, is he taking part in a pantomine ?

Jul 11th, 2012 - 05:14 pm - Link - Report abuse 0How do you manage to type Chavez in correct Spanish with proper punctuation marks over the letter 'a', not used in English?
You have gone to a lot of trouble if you are typing on an English keyboard.
How many Brits would go to this trouble?
After looking at the photo does anyone else think Hugo may be a closet Evil Kenevil fan?

Jul 12th, 2012 - 04:41 pm - Link - Report abuse 0To those wondering how I got to type Chavez the Spanish way, I was cutting and pasting! No smoking gun here
It seems he had difficulties remembering the spelling of Chavez's name (all 6 letters C...H...A............V...E...Z), notwithstanding the fact that he had copied and pasted the name many times earlier (all from English websites) and the spelling of the name was directly in front of him (Given that the subject of the article was C...H...A..............V'...E...Z) as he was writing, on this occasion, and struggling with the spelling AGAIN, he decided to change his computer settings to seek out a Spanish website to copy from and finish off his brief posting.
Chavez also has a job as a children's entertainer. I like the clown costume, but where's his red nose?
