Venezuelas Hugo Chavez is a Sick Man By: Jerry Brewer President Hugo Chavezs physical and mental health transcends a myriad of opinions and judgment. Chavezs ever-growing and strong political opposition stands firm in awaiting what many believe is the end of his socialist version of the Bolivarian Revolution, either by election defeat or he succumbing to his critical physical illness. Chavez pompously says he will be president through the year 2030.

To a man who adores his own one-way freedom with the media, he closely guards his medical condition; waffling from just needing one treatment of chemotherapy; and sequentially now reaching his fourth recently conducted again in Cuba. Bolivias leftist President Evo Morales went there to be at the side of his socialist mentor. Morales left Cuba to speak at the United Nations last week- assuming Chavezs usual anti-US and Israel diatribe. Trying to defend world accusations of his regimes complicity in drug trafficking and terrorism, he chose to blame the US for rumor-mongering. A pretty heady position by a rogue leftist leader who kicked the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) out of Bolivia; following the lead of Chavez who did the same. The regions drug activity for both nations is very well known to a free worlds acute focus on the truth. How can any savvy, sane and inquisitive, person believe Chavez and Morales pathological nonsense? Adjoining Latin American neighbors are not fooled. Morales is now having his own problems at home with the indigenous Bolivian people violently oppressed while trying to assemble peacefully in disagreement with the government.

Lets face the fact that Hugo Chavez is Venezuelas master of lies and thus must keep his regime constantly censoring the media. His one-way media output constantly reflects his physical and mental fitness, as well as his frequent sound-byte attacks on the US (capitalism and imperialism). This, much like the father of lies- Fidel Castros lengthy absence from the public eye for around four years. Fidel Castro later would emerge and truthfully state that he was near death. Chavez frequently goes to extreme measures to censor Venezuela media- especially after the Christian Science Monitor exposed and published the steady stream of wealthy Venezuelans abandoning their former beloved homeland for Panama. Too, it was reported that Chavezs top military leaders were involved in contingency plans on a move to Panama- this via one of Panamas top real estate developers. The pathological nature of Chavezs words and tenure in office as Venezuelas rogue leftist leader, is graphically and factually demonstrated by the embarrassment of slim victory for majority rule in the 2010 parliamentary election in Venezuela on September 26, 2010. This sparked a tirade of Chavez anger that led to his usual non-stately and crude political demeanor of confrontation. He quickly embarked on travel to meet with his mentor and revolutionary partner Fidel Castro in Cuba, as well as to the embracing arms of Irans Ahmadinejad. Too, his stops did not forget his pals in Russia, Syria, and others.

Chavez recently continued to exhibit his flawed and ill propensities to embarrass a once proud and prosperous democratic populace in Venezuela, by solidarity wishes to Libyas on the run President Muammar Gaddafi and Syrias embattled President Bashar-al-Assad whose regime is hunting down and killing street protesters. Chavez, as usual, blames this on Yankee aggression- allowing his flawed mental capacities to ignore a majority world support of those people of those actions wishing to be free of oppression and lies by their rogue leftist dictators. Chavezs mental illness, whether temporary or not, also does not allow him to see that the people on the streets in protest against the murdering regimes of Libya and Syria are their own people in masses. What part of that does Chavez or his own supporters miss? All they have to do is use the free world media for the facts, and not his own personal blog (Twitter) that spews his tired rhetoric of falsehood and subterfuge. He goes by the name of Chavez Candanga (literally- the devil). Now there is a curious mentor for him also. The squandering (and the simple disappearance) of billions of dollars in hard earned oil revenue for Venezuelas citizens, is Chavezs rationale to deceive a very savvy (but violently oppressed) Venezuelan

people into believing Venezuela is to be invaded by the Yankees. This allows him to buy and hoard massive weapons and issue blank checks to leftist regimes throughout the world that care not one iota for the true welfare of the Venezuelan people. Only Chavez garners the accolades for his generosity and personal support of murdering world dictator-like regimes.

The truth is that the world has previously seen leftist leaders and regimes telegraph their true intentions through their anger and arrogance while consolidating power. Those acts routinely weaken democratic institutions, and trample on the guarantees of human rights. In the absence of a credible judicial control in Venezuela, the Chavez government has implemented systematically discriminatory policies that have limited the exercise of freedom of expression of journalists, the right to freedom of association for workers and the civil society capacity to promote human rights in Venezuela. The Chavez government has implemented discriminatory practices against its political opponents and critics. At times, the president himself has openly endorsed acts of discrimination. Chavez has further defined his sinister agenda through a manifest disregard of the principle of separation of powers and, especially, the idea of an independent judiciary that is indispensable for protecting fundamental rights in a democratic society. What more proof is necessary? It came with the political takeover of the Supreme Court by Chvez and his regime. The people of Venezuela, both supporters and non-supporters of Hugo Chavez, urgently need to implement surgical-like fact finding- the search for the truth and facts from a world media. In this manner, they can be sure that they did their own homework; used their own God-given minds; and made the right decisions for their future and families. With a factual search for the truth- a free world believes they will say Nunca mas, to Hugo Chavez, or any similar leader of destruction and misery.
