Day 3 - Hugo Chavez is still dead.

Hopefully someone slipped a garlic necklace under his funeral suit.

Good Lord, they are going to embalm his corpse and put it on display.... WTF? He was a relatively good icon of economic dufous-icity, but with 'balls of steel' who did more stupid than good.... what the hell???

I'm, not going to argue with you in circles Boggit. I think what you said is clear, and I think my replies have been clear.  Let's leave it at that.

Mind you, when was the last time we had a PM that anyone felt that attached to?

Disraeli?
or further back than that?
;D

Dunno. He was a bit even before my time. ;)

I think it's a pretty good idea.

When the populace finally realizes how badly he handled the economy it'll be easier for them to crap on his face.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

He was kind of a buffoon but he stood up for what he believed in.  He just believed in some dumb stuff.  Economically.
Being decisive and action oriented isn't all that great when you aren't very smart.  Some people never figure that one out.
They die first.  Maybe they could make his cadaver into a helicopter or something and fly it around the country
like that deceased pet cat out there on the web.  (Apologies to cat lovers and not so bright Latin American dictators.)
He was my age and IMHO that is somewhat too young to die.

I have a lot of respect for Jarhead. We may not always agree on things, and I don't think either of us is minded to back down when we think we are in the right, but I respect his integrity and I think it's mutual.
