Adam

Really glad to hear from you – This old hen was getting a bit nervous about your situation

You have MANY new bloggers with very interesting posts. You will really enjoy reading them when you have time

Stay safe

Stay safe. Looks like you’ve made some people nervous by telling the truth. Too bad we can’t send Derek down there with you. I’d feel a little better.

WOW! Like what else can I say.
Stay safe!

Oh Geez! Adam, I hope you get out ok. I really love the fact that you have obviously stirred some stuff up there. GOOD JOB!!

OOO sH*T MAN

call the american navy seals or israel elite army rescue unit to get you the hell out of there

Hey worst comes to worst hide under a bed/ or box they wont find you

do you think Mr. Hugo is watching the blog

Wow…i agree with the others, stay safe Adam and crew!
Keep up the good work, you are no doubt saving lives by telling the truth!

Avi-Probably, you bet duck.

Adam

oops – meant to say this old mother hen!! You are young enough to be one of my own, and from one Leo to another Leo – I am sure you know how to ROAR when needed.

You really know how to stir a pot – fantastic job as usual

Make sure someone checks out the plane before you guys board

you can also seek refuge at the US EMBASSY AS WELL LOL !

Is it ironic that as soon as Adam and crew are being “thrown out” that they cant get out?

KC..i think Adam has alot of “mother hens”

Patty,

maybe lol

Adam are you scared ? lol

Avi.. *L*

I wish the Venezuelans would come on this blog and tell us their viewpoints. Whether they’re in favor of Chavez or not. They don’t need to be able to write in English either because we can translate what they say. They can always write anonymously.

Patty

he has a undergroud network lol

Adams layer

The reporters in Venezuela have to report that Adam is lying. It’s part of Chavez’a agenda. Trick the people of Venezuela into thinking that nothing is happening. They think the people of Venezuela are stupid and won’t see through the lies and rhetoric that Chavez and his reporters put out in the media.

Chavez will allow the drug cartels to come in, Chavez is too dumb to realize that the drug cartels will try to take over the streets. Making the people of Venezuela frightened.

Adam: stay safe, and God bless!

Susan: You can add Trinidad and Tobago to the map! (That’s one country)

Avi… yikies shaggy! You mean lawyer?

lawyer….. watcha mean? lol

I sure hes gone into hiding already lol

Avi: Adam’s layer would be someone who lays with Adam. Possibly in the biblical sense?

Maaaaaaaaax!!!!!!!! I can be his MOTHER! quit that!

Coversation turn……fast!
Why would Chavez pro tv put Adam’s blog on tv……..doesnt that just give the anti’s more power, gives them a voice they may not otherwise have.?

oops i mean — conversation turn.

Adam,
as a new blogger on your site, glad to be here. You have an amazing group here. Very nice people with great minds.

Appreciate the good work and stay safe.

Patty… maybe he’s using Adam’s report as proof that Adam was lying… he can show Venezuelans that Adam really did a report on the issue… He can say to the Venezuelans…Look what Adam Housley wrote! It’s all lies. See, I told you he wrote a report! hahahaha

What a goofball Chavez is.

Did I spell lying correctly?

Karen T: Lying is correct,

Thank you Max!

true enough Karen T., i sort of thought of that all on my own after i asked it! *L*
arent you proud! he he he

hello pepole i from venezuela i would like to thank you adam for being so brave and come here to show the rest of the world the truth we been trying to tell

it’s been about 8 years of this scalating conflict

chavez is turning us against each other so he can sustain power
saying stuff like **is because the rich pepole that you are living this way ** bullsh** like that

besides the CNE ( Nacional Electoral Counsel ) is been tampered we can never get a clean election
we had to fight hard in order to prevent the constitucional change he was plotting to stay in power forever

he commands armed groups that stir terror in the population when they protest

the Economical situation of the country is slowly deteriorating too

we have food shortage

he is getting his dirty hands on our education so we turn out like brain dead zombies that worship him

he took away most of the police weapons he has enourmous power in the military because from the April 11 incident he has been replacing the ones with the highest ranks for his pepole

this is just a little bit of what’s happening here sorry if i have some grammar errors this is not my natural language you know i m’ a 17 year old boy pepole and even i realize that you can ask me any question that does not involve private information from me

I am very proud of you Patty!! hahahaha… you crack me up!

Alessandro…grammatical errors are not a problem. We are interested and we can read between the typo’s.

Karen T…. now Im going to gloat while running my errands! ~Later

Alessandro

Wow! Thanks for coming on here and telling us what you’re seeing happen over there. We don’t care about your grammar, we care about your thoughts and what Venezuelans have to live through with Chavez in power.

We have learned a lot from Venezuelans coming on her to talk to us. Thank you!

A few of you have mentioned about the food shortage… what’s going on with that?

………………… anybody taking me seriously?

o prefieren que les hable en español??? realmente es molesto cuando alguien se rie de algo serio sabian?

o sorry though she was laughing at me

Alessandro

I saw pictures of the conditions of your hospitals. They were disgusting! They should be condemned. One said on this blog that you’re having difficulty getting medical supplies. I can’t imagine living like that.

well about the food thing is because he is murdering the production power and killing the industry

I was laughing at Patty… but I always laugh at Patty. She cracks me up.

Hey Adam, make sure you hang around people and don’t wander off. Wherever you do go, make sure there’s witnesses…crowds of friendlies are a good thing. -Rod-

well not all the hospitals are like that but the are not taking care of them because of the corruption the money that should be for the hospitals is taken god knows where

Alessandro…stay strong brother

Adam…be careful brother

Hugo…kiss my ass

I am so tired of dictators, would the american people support violent overthrows of corrupt governments? I think that the average american is compassionate enough to understand that human suffering needs to be stopped and that it may be costly but it is neccesary. I mean, venezuela, sudan, somalia, cuba, south africa (watch the news, that is going to be the worst to date) there are so many countries that have legit human suffering as a direct result of a dictatorship. Couldn’t we just go in, completely route the government and army, then let the people have their country back. Not like we did iraq, we did not finish the job before we started to rebuild and that was a huge mistake. I am talking about going in, and killing every SOB that is in that government and military. Maybe I am too violent for my own good, but there has to be a way to deal with these clowns, and the only way I know to deal with a bully is strip him of everything he has.

you know derek the problem is not the american pepole the problem is the politicians

the are the ones who should be beat up for good

So you’re having problems getting basic things like milk, eggs, bread…things like that.

I saw pictures of the run down streets, many buildings looked debilitated, not habitable. Not all buildings, but in the poorer sections. I felt bad for them.

but if you fight chavez head in you destroy us in the process

Derek… that’s what I don’t get… why do some Hollywood celebrities do that do that? How could you not see that Chavez is not putting money back into the country? I don’t get it.

What do you mean…but if you fight chavez head in you destroy us in the process
??

Alessandro..sorry for the confusion on the laughing. I didn’t mean to interrupt. You are taken seriously here. You can count on it!

Has Fox had any reports on Adam on the air today? I have been enjoying TCM since I had a day off. I haven’t had a chance to watch much.

Karen T: He probably has a set up similar to the ones the USSR had. They had these really nice areas, only the party faithful could live there. Visitors were always accompanied, and not allowed to leave those areas, so they would only see the very best area.

is you star a full scale war in here i will say something like see i was right the americans a trying to take over the world besides he is been buying weapons from countrys like russia and stuff the result would be a masive blood lust from all the Hatred and anger he has seed between us

and we are at a weak economical and political state

haven’t seen any Kristin…if i hear any coming up I’ll post it

Max… sounds similar to how they do it in North Korea!

When the celebrities go to visit Chavez they probably only see the good areas

Alessandro…your people need to remember their roots, and go back to them. Only then will they know where the truth is. History tells us many things, our ancestors were very smart (mostly), it is easy to see from their mistakes. They need to be reminded of what your country once was, and can be again, if they don’t fall into the dictator’s trap.
Although that is much easier to say than to accomplish.

actually is not like that we have many beatiful places to go in our cities though is true that some areas are embarrasigly damanges and not taken care of

mostly because of the insecurity in those place that they are that way

Karen T and Max..its like all of Greta’s pics from being with the Pres and the First Lady in Abu Dahbi (sp?)….look at the palaces they stayed in. Greta never saw the worst of the worst, or what the normal citizen sees day in and day out. If you have any “name”, you will be catered to.

That’s just Chavez’s paranoia talking. He wants people to think that America wants to start a full scale war. He’s dillusional and wants to turn Venezuelans against the US.

Max…the USSR’s Dacha’s were quite nice by their standards but most were maybe only middle class by ours. Not much, but much better than what the Soviet citizens got. -Rod-

I dont meant to lighten your situation, please dont take this taht way… Alessandro. But its much like that here. It all depends on which end of town you drive on. Some you NEVER go into after dark, or you will never come back out.

Good point Patty… the only difference is that they already know not to be deceived by what they’re seeing. But some celebrities that go to Venezuela seemed to be blinded to the reality of people live in Venezuela, the ones with little money anyway..

Alessandro

What kind of insecurity is in the areas of runned down places? Are you talking about crime or military influence or general freedoms?

Well we sure as hell need to clean up washington, I knew my fellow americans could be counted on. Yesterday, America was the beacon of hope for so many, we welcomed the poor and wretched to our shores, we gave them hope, they drank from the cup that is freedom. Today, we continue to welcome them to our shores, but we find our land is bursting at the seams, we welcome them still and we comfort them as they recover from the harshest of lands. well I have a vision for tomorrow, it is not to be the last beacon of hope, but it is to kick the beacon up a few notches so that we are not the only ones in the light of freedom. we use lady liberty, to chase away the shadows of dispair from the planet. We show the world, that we are for liberty for all countries and if you choose not to join us, then destruction will follow, we chase the evil men from the shadows and we kill them in the streets. We are the most powerful nation on earth and we have the most powerful freedom loving allies. Then, when the entire world is free from oppression we rest. I for one am willing to fight the rest of my days for liberty to be granted to all.

Thank you Karen T!

I can only do so much multitasking. I figured that reading here would get me the most information the quickest.

i going to post a video on the april 11 incident is a littler dramatic with the music and the quality is crapy but you get to see what you have to see

*at first there is an intercepted radio transmision of chavez ordering to fire at the pepole coded:^*i order you to execute the plan Avila*

then you see and air view from an helicopter of the protest
after that al TV and radio trasmisions go into national Chain ( where the get force to transmit any trasmision the goverment wants ) of chavez talking bullsh::: then the pepole is screaming
!!!Fuera that means out they are screaming him to get out of the presidency and al is just bloodlust

is in youtube

Krisitn hahahha… I hear that…I had a 1/2 day today so I’m anxiously looking for Adam.

alessandro…..what do you need for a revolution? I real freedom loving revolution

karen i talking about Crime and the worst kind gangs suported by the goverment

the students are the ones making the change mostly the ones of the universitys in the last years

we are a real pain in the as for him I hope this year he will fall

and if I ever manage to get a hand on him im going to put my foot so far down his as that he will be able to taste my shoe on the roof off his mouth!!

Rod: yeah, i know, my father grew up behind the Iron Curtain.

Alessandro–

I left for you and the Venezuelans a post on the last thread– Hugo and Cartel

You know, I took 4 years of Spanish in an all girl Roman Catholic high school and the only things I know how to saw in Spanish is swear words.

I don’t have clue what was being said on the video… but I got the idea! Very powerful imagery.

See over here we have protests also. But I’ve never seen it to the extreme that I see happening in Venezuela. The Venezuelans that are in opposition of Chavez are very passionate!

I undestand that force needs be done in oprder to control the crowds… but for goodness sakes, that was extreme force!

We need to go back to the days of carpet bombing. Destroy the idiots like Chavez and then go back in and rebuild.

But it can’t be done by us – there needs to be an organized revolt within Venezuela that we can secretly support. Like the days of old………who is that guy Charlie (the Rep from Texas) who did that very thing?

WHAT VIDEO’S ARE YOU PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT???

Alessandro

Governments, as you know, should not be supporting gangs. Corruption cannot rule and the people of Venezuela should not allow them to prevail. That’s just not healthy, to say the least.

Tammy

Adam.. you won’t be doing a live report until you get to Trinidad right?

you know many police oficers and military decided to protect the pepole on the midle of the whole conflict

you know what has become of them?!

they are in Jail!! labeled traitors without a fair judge/trial whatever the word is to define legal prosecution

you think thats fair?

Adam–

I rushed back from court because I was so worried about you– I am so glad you are fine- I think-

After reading a few links such as– Eva Gollinger- demanding your presence to be gone, I had the worse fears–

The more links I read on the other thread, as there were several, pointing at you to be immediately thrown out of Venezuela, I feared the worse.

I spent all day yesterday and this morning reading the links about Chavez– the more I read, the larger this monster became to me– I couldn’t help but think, as your last visit, and the article which I translated, how much more you are hated by Chavez and his monkeys.

Thanks to Alfredo, I saw a human side to those poor individuals who are incarcerated for just going against Chavez– so my fears increased as I thought how much more you are hated there by Chavez’s supporters-

Your poor mom– if you were my son, I would be drinking all the vino there and asking your dad to wake me up when you were on friendlier soil–

It was nice to see you post again–

and ditto to Patty’s remark– they are trying to get you out of there- and you are stuck–

I don’t know if you know this– but your Cartel thread was the hot spot for ratings– Someone stopped in last night and left a link–

Max—

thanks about Trinidad– I can’t fill the map in– Adam said there are two more countries– so I have to wait–

xxxxxx

Kristin.. I think Adam is stuck somwhere between Venezuela and Trinidad. Doubt we’ll get a live report for a while. I think Adam is on Chavez’s bad list today.

Susan: if you just log in you can edit it with out having to start over.

Alessandro

People who protest here and cross the line of of being organized to being disruptive and break the laws, they too get arrested. But those are in the extreme cases (this doesn’t apply to Cindy Sheehan though, she has the ability to get arrested almost all the time). These people have fair trials, pay a fine and get out pretty quickly.

That’s sad to hear that, what you’re saying,,, they’re accused of being traitors just because they have an opinion and are expressing it. They are the smart ones that protest! They know that Chavez is corrupt and not good for the people.

That was horrible. Thanks for the link Alessandro and for pointing me in the right direction Karen T.

Max–

But I have to like create an account– the more I redo the map, the more places I memorize where Adam has been- so when the picture of the day comes up, I don’t even have to look where he has been– and I have the nine states memorized where he hasn’t been- and most of the countries– Tahiti I will never forget– lol

Jen– if you come back in– guess what I am making tonight– lasagna– to take over to Ella’s and Wanda’s tomorrow—

Now that I know Adam is safe, I think, I can go finish up my day–

xxxxxx

Susan: you only have to create an account once, just log back into one of those and update the map.

Max– I never created an account– I just make the map- give it a title-

Max–

Too bad you aren’t closer– you could come over for dinner– Jen gave me a great recipe for lasagna–

xxxxxx

Susan: how do you do it without creating an account?

Max–

and thanks so much for always helping me– xxxxxx you are the best–

going to leave again— ooooo

Hi Mr. Housley

I’m a journalist in Caracas Venezuela, I’d like an interview with you if it’s possible. I left my email address in the form.

I do not understand why some people fail to see what Chavez is doing to Venezuela. A coutry with those resources shoukld not have poverty, elevated crime, unemployment, hunger, scarcity of food, etc.. Instead, he tries to buy foreign friendships by condoning debts that other countries have with Venezuela, has given oil for free, has given billions of dollars away to governments like Cuba, Bolivia, Ecuador, Argentina and has meddled in the affairs of other countries by financing political campaings. Internally, he has literally copied te cuban situation to create dependency on the state and an unfriendly atmosphere for businesses and investment. Corruption is abundant and wide open. The government officials have no shame in the incredible sums of money they have amazed, without having an education, ocupation, or businesses to support a legal source of those moneys. Farmers and ranchers have had their lands taken away by mobs with backing from the military. A TV station was literally taken from its rightful owners by the government. There is political persecusion and there are political prisoners. Although the FARC in Colombia has venezuelan hostages and have for years terrorized business owners and farmers along the border with Colombia, he claims they are not terrorists. Chavez is a reincarnation of Idi Amin of Uganda. It is the worst thing that could have happened to Venezuela.

Max–

I just open the link and click on make a map or something like that- and then I start coloring—

did you see my post from last night about the link which showed Adam’s blog being hot– but Karen T and I couldn’t figure out the graph– and I asked you if you knew–?

well not coloring– I click on the names of the countries so the map gets colored in

para que periodico trabajas? Cristina solo para asegurarme

Nelson—

amen and ditto– check out the other thread– you will find many people who agree with you all the way-

Adam,
Thought this might happen this time, you are just too honest. Hugo is not for honesty! El Diablo is under God Hugo. You are a nobody!

Stay safe, I have been practicing with my handgun. Come to Texas if you need protection, there are enough rednecks here to take out Hugo!

Nelson, you forgot to add the millions of dollars he gave to Iran to build the nuclear plant when he partnered with Ahmadinejad.

Susan: I don’t think i’ve ever had lasagna.

What i want to try is deep fried shrimp in rhode island sauce.

Alessandro–

no creo que tengas que preocuparte– a mi se me hace que esto puede ser buenas noticias– pero uno nunca sabe–

thats exactly what is happening here nelson

those are the exacts word to resume this whole conflict

Somebody please translate that

Max–

well — there are seafood restaurants here too

If you are up later– will see you–

Susan: xxxxxx to you too

Max… In Maine you can pull to the side of the road, sit on old wooden picnic table and have them cook live lobsters in a barrell.

Alessandro wants to know what paper Cristina works for to reassure him– and I said- probably not to worry- could be good news but then no one knows for sure-

xxx

Susan: My kitchen is any kind of restraunt i want it to be!
I’m going to bed in a few minutes.

If you want good recipes for anything just email me with a list and i’ll get you some!

era por si acaso

los periodicos Chavistas retuercen las noticias para que chavez quede como el santo de la historia

Hijo de put coñ O de Su Ma

como el canal del estado Venezolana de television es que si pudiera te lo juro que diamitaria ese canal

Max– send over a good gravy recipe–

sleep tight and safe– no demons– he has been the talk here anyway– so I am sure you are safe- for now- xxx

Karen T: I’m not sure i’d like to cook something live. Why don’t they kill it first?

Susan: Any type of gravy in particular? I’m keen on cream gravy. If you’d like that i’ll type the recipe out. I’ve memorised it.

Alessandro-

Hijo de put coñ O de Su Ma …..

tienes la misma vocabulario que yo–

Que Diosito te bendiga– a ver si estas aquí al rato—

Wife wanted. Must love have boat and firearms. Send photos of both to…

Yes Max– cream– like for chicken fried steak—

can you send it over to my side– I have to really leave–
and thanks ———

oh and By the Way on the video where it say’s

Elegimos vivir en democracia

it says: We Choose to live in democracy

Thank you Susan.

Max I don’t know. Good question. Have you ever tried New England Clam Chowder?

Ok, after frying something, keep 4 tablespoons of pan dripping in the pan, add 3 table spoons of plain flour and a little salt and pepper, spread it around quickly so there are no clumps, as soon as it’s bubbling add 2 cups of milk. Keep stiring until it gets to your desired thickness. For me this is about the same point that the gravy begins to bubble.

It’s best to prepare all the ingredients before had, as it all happens very quickly at the beggining.
Also, if you’re going to fry a steak, make sure it’s full of blood, adds to the taste of the gravy.

I’m going to email this to Susan as well.

Karen T: not yet, not easy to find clams here in Old England.

sounds tasty wich reminds me dinners is ready

i don’t know is im going to return so farewell to all of you pepole
at least now pepole will know what we are going through
thank you all

Alessandro: thanks. Everyone who has tried it agrees with you
Hope you blog again soon.

Alessandro–

hay mas links en la otro tema sobre Chavez que tambien son muy buenas– pero me imagino que ya las haz visto todas—

y quize decir que tienes el mismo vocabulario que yo– me confundí el masculino con el femenino– disculpe-

Yes Max– I just copied it and now I am going to paste it in my emails– so don’t worry– and thanks– you are un amor– a love–

KT– ur welcome

Please be safe!!

Susan: I know what un amor is. I don’t know much spanish, but i know how to flirt in spanish!

Hi Adam!! its very sad for the people of venezuela have a president like this… you don’t know how we feel every time that Chavez or they people attacking people or countrys. It is very distressing that people like you are pushed out of our country. But it is because they are afraid to truth, which is that, despite all Venezuelans and the entire world knows. I hope that what happened does not obstruct follow working on that, it is very important that all know the real work and intentions of Chavez. We assure that you have the support of the majority of Venezuelans. Successes

hello pepole i’m back ignore antro stupid drawing i bet he is just an angry chavez suporter

just look at this 2 pictures

http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z115/papademarias/chavezirakov0.jpg

http://i194.photobucket.com/albums/z115/papademarias/futuro.jpg

the second one says **An Image we could see in the Future**

i smile when i saw this pictures

Is Antro’s message meant for us or Hugo?

oye ANTRO que tal si te mamas un enorme y jugoso huevo kbron de mierda a ver si aprendes a pensar por ti mismo kbron das pena dejando mesajes asi en paginas de opinion y noticias quisiera poder reventarte a coñaso limpo malnacido engreido chavista de mierda y hacerte comer la miserable camisa roja que seguramente tienes puesta!!!!

Antro is an ignorant chavez suporter that goes on the web just to insult pepole against chavez or North american pepole or Spanish pepole or colombian pepole

you get the picture….

antro,
Be careful what you wish for! Americans can deliver it to your front door!

Kathy if you could deliver a bomb to Antro’s rectum i would gladly take you out for a dinner

Alessandro,
Thanks for the info on Antro. My question was the same as Max’s.

Kathy, You betcha, as we say up here!

Susan,

now that I have Max’s recipe for cream gravy, can i have the recipe for chicken fried steak?

Hey Antro, that was intelligent. Is that your IQ? -Rod-

Karen2: Chicken fried steak to serve 8, or 4 hungry guys!:
2lb beef steak, tenderize it. Cover in flour, then dip in 1 egg with a little milk, cover in flour again.
Heat up 1 ½ cups of oil in a pan until it’s starting to smoke a little. Slip the steaks in, after the base has crisped turn over and wait till the other side has crisped. As soon as the steaks are out of the pan start the gravy mix

This is my favorite meal.

Max,

Yummy stuff. I make my gravy just as the steak is finishing cooking so it’s all made at once. I do the same with Chicken livers, too. When the livers are just finishing, add water and your seasonings to the roux. -Rod-

Rod: Do you mean you leave the steak in the pan when you make the gravy?
I get everything ready for the gravy while the oil is heating up. Then as soon as the steaks are out of the pan in goes the flour.

Im no martha sterwart but isnt it kinda hard to stir the gravy if the meat is still in the pan!!!

Max… take that gravy made with butter instead of drippings and add cut up dried beef turkey, or even hot dogs…serve on toast………YUM!

oops, that was to read dried beef or turkey, not one in the same.

Max, yes. I let the gravy and the steak (or chicken livers) finish together. -Rod-

Max.
Thank you. I haven’t had decent Chicken Fried Steak since moving from Texas too many years ago!

Since we had dinner tonight- it will be for dinner tomorrow….

WOW WE NOW HAVE A COOKING BLOG – ISN’T A BLOG FOR POSTING ON THE SUBJECT AT HAND

I’M CONFUSED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING ON THIS BLOG – IT IS USUALLY RESERVED FOR GRETA’S BLOGS AND THAT IS WHY SHE NEVER ANSWERS ANYONE – TO MUCH STUFF TO READ AND IS OFF THE SUBJECT

I GUESS SOMEDAY ADAM NEEDS TO POST AN OPEN THREAD, THEN YOU ALL CAN YAK AWAY ALL DAY AND NIGHT

Gee Wondering…sorry our presence is offending you…

Well i was meant to go to bed an hour ago, but i got distracted by a cook book!

So talk soon.

Rod: It sounds easier with the livers.

Patty: Sounds good!

thank you Wondering i was getting piss already for all the cooking talk

Wondering…how do you feel about Sausage and Gravy? -Rod-

geeze wondering…there is a whole 6-7 posts! did you miss the other 1,000 or so?

wondering: it’s not off topic, they have a food shortage in Venezula, this is a way to add more callories to your meal so you can eat less food!

Wondering.

very little off topic talk on this blog……just take the time to read it all. But, once in a while, a little levity is good.

And, very nice people……

stick around if you want to learn something.

I just counted, it was only about 10 posts about steak and gravy

Rod…and biscuits?

oh come on………………………………………….

Alessandro,

The floor is all yours. What would you like to discuss?

nha just keep the food talk i getting some good recipes

Alessandro ..sorry dude. Go on, we are listening.

Been gone for most of the day – 3 day weekend and headed for the coast

Has anyone heard anything on Fox News about Adam’s next report?? Hope the house we rented at the coast has cable – if not will catch up on Tuesday
Have a great weekend everyone

i kinda hoping castro Dies Already!
tha would really weakend chavez

want to know who that Eva Golinger is? http://www.vcrisis.com page from a Venezuelan in English
Alexsander Boyd.

Patty, absolutely! I make it once a month as a treat

(It is possible to have more than one conversation going on…and sometimes people just wander off. Relax.)

Alessandro,

Castro may as well be dead. At this point he’s a figurehead, simply holding his people back by his continued existence. The sooner he dies, the sooner they can (hopefully) move on. -Rod-

Congratulations on such a great coverage of my country.

As a venezuelan I’d like to congratulate you and FOX News for informing what Chavez really is.

Believe us, we wanted to kick this demon out of power, but it’s hard to remove a dictator who receives over $200 Million … PER DAY … mainly form the U.S. He take this money, give it away to fund and support the so called SOCIALISM of the XXI Century (or whatever that means)

Please go to a popular market and will see that we have no Milk, Sugar, Chicken or Beef.

Thank you!!!!!!

PS. By the way, Chavistas wanted to kick you out of the country, as a FASCIST STATE, the Government OWNS the truth ….. you probably understand that ….

To the American People: Beware of Socialists – Vote Republican!

Hi!! i am Venezuelan, and i hope that you leave with the reality about this government and the people how want to wake up of this nightmare and come to find a better way to re-build the democracy in this loving country,don’t worry about the menace is only words and they are don’t do anything……. good journey and hope see you soon with better news about this country

see Anti-CHz-Vz say’s the same about the food ……………it get’s you Angry just to think about it!!!!

Where’s that Gringo, anyway? He should be here to hear all of this. -Rod-

Nice Blog Here,

By the way, please see this video series, explains (in english) a very good presentation of who CHavez is…..

http://youtube.com/watch?v=uSvJ-ULdhcQ

Make sure you see all other segments (Part 2, Part 3 … etc.)

Thank you for reporting about Venezuela.

hola Alessandro,

The Food Problem (which Chavez refer to this as minuscule social inconvenient) is a real and dramatic problem, among of many other.

DID YOU KNOW that more people DIE in CARACAS ALONE that in IRAK? (per week basis)

Since Chavez took power, street violence has taken over 120.000 lifes on common robbery, assault and battery

DID YOU KNOW that Chavez is fostering relations with IRAN and even Al-Qaida member (in Margarita Island)

the list is way too long ……..

America should pay a little more attention to this guy, in any given moment, America could be facing another Missile Crisis with no warning.

Juan,

What would you like the US to do? I have no problem with dealing Chavez out…but there’s a cost for Venezuelans for that sort of intervention. There’s a responsibility to make good use of the opportunities presented too. Politicians that aren’t corrupt, politics without everyone struggling for power, a fair chance for everyone… Historically S. America hasn’t scored real well in those areas. But we’d gladly help…speaking for myself, anyway. -Rod-

yes juan sadly i DID know that as i Read the Newspaper Diary

as for the misile crisis thing
is no go cause he has much more than half of the country against him and if he gets the US pissed off the would own the fuck out of him because there would also be a rebellion withing the army against him for stirring war

Rod,

Truth is that Chavez has a lot of money, thus power. I think the US should realize that Chavez is a full blown communist, Anti-American who wants to destroy your country … Here are my simple TO-DO list for America in reference to Chavez:

1) STOP buying OIL from Venezuela (America provides over $200 Million per day)

2) Approve US-Colombia Free Trade Agreement and expedite commerce with “friendly” countries in Latin America – Commerce is the best way to improve life conditions in the region also will help your immigration problems, the better we are here, the less people will try to flee and move to the US

3) Extend PLAN COLOMBIA (a US military and financial support plan to fight Drug and Terrorism in Colombia)

America should avoid falling in any diatribe with Chavez, just IGNORE him. Do not intervene militarily — unless Chavez decides to attack Colombia

I don’t think that other measures like an Embargo or even military involvement is necessary because that is proven to fail and in the long run and will strengthen the communism and the Anti American sentiment.

We Venezuelans need to topple down this government and the best way to do this is to STOP his finances.

PS. A NICE TO HAVE WISH is to get rid of the Communist Regime in CUBA, all this problems exists because CUBA is an incubator of little chaveses and little fidels and other werid creatures

Juan,Alessandro.
I think American’s on the whole, Care deeply for what happens in your country and that we all wish that democracy is re instated as soon as possible.
But, what I dont understand is why doesnt anyone there take a good hunting rifle with a scope and just shoot him in the head when he ventures out of his cage to make a speech? I mean, its not that hard to get a gun and just shoot him. I think, that is the only way you will be rid of him.

It doesn’t matter if Castro dies– he is putting his affairs in order–

Adam– I am going to the other thread– the ones with all the links– I am getting nervous– this is like a puzzle– Is Bush aware of Venezuela? The video I saw today– with Chavez in Guatemala, he clearly said Bush is a terrorist– it is like he is trying to get all these countries together and his planning like a war– look what I just found as I opened the internet– and typed in Ahmadinejadw

Ahmadinejad: Bush Sent ‘Message of Confrontation’ …
… TEHRAN, Iran —. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Thursday that President Bush sent a “message of confrontation” during his recent Mideast trip. …

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,323526... – 8k – 2008-01-17

Thursday is yesterday—-

Juan,

Not buying Chavez’s oil IS an embargo. I personally have no problem with that, but US citizens here need to decide if they want to endure that sort of pain…and it will be painful.

Free trade agreements have this nasty habit of doing the US the least amount of good. We’re running a trade deficit that runs into the hundreds of Billions of dollars per year. Money goes out, doesn’t come back. We’re being slowly bled to death. We can’t subsidize the world’s trade forever, y’know?

Chavez could be dealt with much more quickly in my opinion, for about 50 cents. But we’d need to know that Venezuelans are going to do their part and not simply go into another left-right-left wing cycle. The continent needs more stability, less ambition and corruption. -Rod-

“Ahmadinejad”,or as I like to say his name “Im a Dinner Jacket” has a blog and is a pretty interesting read. It’s like reading a new version of Hilter’s Mein Kampf. The crazy Dictators always tell you what they are going to do. You just have to keep your ears and eyes open to hear it.

Cont’d

You may ask why Help Colombia? Simple: Colombia is improving dramatically since President Uribe is in Power. He is defeting Terrorism (FARC, ELN) with great success (and of course, US Support). Improving and supporting Colombia will balance the region and create a SUCCESS STORY that everyone will see here in Lat Am.

America should get back to the Principles of great leaders and thinkers like Jefferson, Addams and the founders of the American Democracy. I believe those values could be spread through commerce, investment and demosntrating that societies can grow for good in good causes.

Obviously that’s a bit altruistic hahaha, but I am talking about DIRECTION, VISION and LEADERSHIP.

Unfortunately, the IRAQ story turned to be worse than anyone expected and is fueling the anti-american sentiment.

I do respect America because I respect/share/recognize its values and without values, no one can get anywhere.

$200 Million … PER DAY … mainly form the U.S… this is what Hugo gets from us????

Gus.. our thoughts and prayers are with you. You’re right, you are all living in a nightmare.. very good description of the reality!

Alessandro … yep… another one bringing up the food issue… that has to be huge problem over there… I wonder how the prices for meat and dairy is compared to over here.

nobody is listening to me

Rod… I only see him on here during the daytime hours

KAren T , well they may not be able to get that from us very longer as the OIL infrastructure in Venezuela is breaking down as fast as I can type. I’ve heard from reports that oil exporting industry has 1 two 3 years left before they will only be able to service their domestic needs. Now, that is “if” China or India get there hands on those oil rigs. Which I think will happen.

Juan,
Thank you for the youtube link. Very important. Wish it was all over our news….but, then Chavez would just say – Bush is out to get him….

Unfortunately, our elected officials have not yet realized the importance of getting away from foreign oil. And, now a growing China and India are huge buyers of oil throughout the middle east and russia.

Karen T, yes, amazing how much oil we purchase from Venezuela. So, not to punish your local gas station, but consider it when buying your gas….Citgo are the stations selling Venezuela’s gas.

Socal Surfer,

If your information is correct then it explains why Chavez has moved into the drug trafficking business.

this may sound weird and all but i have been thinking it for over a year i think i going to study politics and run for presidency

Juan if US stop buying oil from Venezuela

1: Us would get a bit of a crisis
2: the Venezuelan economy would come to collapse since the other areas have been destroy or forgoten
3: We Are Going to deal with Him no matter what in fact i bet he goes down this year you will be invited to the party in all the country in fact anyone is invited once we get him down

Socal Sufer

is not that easy you know he has about 9 super strong rings of security and all the weapons persmisions have been remove no civilian can carry weapon

if not i would have done it long time ago

Rod

we are this year we are going to see some masive fights because we are a peaceful country and peaceful pepole he wants war and thats not what we want

well, I love Venezuela. I went there on a surfing vacation when I was 16. Everyone was very cool. The food was great! and the women, WOW! I’d love to go back when it’s a Democracy again.

you know now that i remember i was so ANGRY at the Referendum of 2004 i cryed from the rage it was souch a show i wanted to choke jimmy carter to dead and Nuke the US entirely

I mean How could you do that To Us?!

S Surfer, ok that sounded encouraging!! an end to his own rainbow in sight! you seem confident that will happen too… good.

Juan… I didn’t know that ratio! Scary, but that’s very unhealthy! Poor nutrition nationwide cannot have an outcome anything other than disease. I can’t imagine the look of devastation on a mother’s face when she can’t feed her children. The anger from a father because he can’t provide the food for his family.

Juan you’re the second person to blog about the suspicions of a link between Chavez and Al Queada. There’s probably a very real possibility because of the ties to Iran.

I heard about the property he bought, shared the cost with ahmadinijead for a nuclear plant. I’m not aware of anything else though. I mean that’s bad enough.

Karen-T … yes, the middle class gets the food, we can find food. The lower-middle class cannot find the necessary food even in chavez controlled MERCAL (popular markets) and when they find Milk or any other scarse food, they might get one kilo or 2.

Rod,, this is a tough situation for the US and its allies. The frustration to watch these good people live in the nightmare. We certainly can’t go there and take him out, there’s no direct threat of attack from him. I know I have no clue what I am talking about, but geez! This is like having a baby fall into a pool and all of us from different countries are just standing there watching.

This is sad.

welll… k2 and Alessandro both made very good yet opposing points. about citgo.

Karen ….. Not only Al-Qaida, also the basque terrorist ETA are in venezuela even in government positions, Hezbollah militants lives and spread the Islam freely in Venezuela.

This Chavez is a disgrace

Nobody was able to link Chavez to the extreme left nor detect his intentions.

In eastern Caracas, you can live with close to normal kind of life, like a bubble. On rural areas, on low income areas of the country is where the real revolution is happening. A revolution of foreign values mixed with hate and resentment

We are sitting on a time-bomb.

I think we are heading for another Nicaragua kind of war, slowly but surely

Jimmy Carter was not a favorite President over here. He was more interested in foreign relations and messed everything up. Nothing against foreign relations, but what experience did he have other than his own ideals. Appointed people that in today’s world now hurt us.

http://www.globalpolicy.org/empire/history/2004/0708petrascarter.htm

Juan…So he’s controlling MERCALand the workers are not getting paid, machinery busted… what’s the bottom line the company is not producing?

Does anyone have information about what Adam was talking about regarding the airline going on strike or something?

Alessandro,

Want and need are two different things. If things with Chavez are going to get worse, then steps have to be taken to stop him. I assume he asserts considerable control over the Army, and if that’s the case, things will go sour at a time of his choosing. One can either be a victim or be a victor.

Most Americans (I hope) understand the relationship between freedom and it’s cost. It’s a fact pounded into us at a very early age. Those of us that really understand the cost of it over the centuries have an appreciation of freedom that the others without the understanding lack. It’s why some are willing to simply stand and stare blankly into space when the subject of patriotism comes up. They take everything they have for granted…and of course the idea of fighting and dying for it is foreign to them. They are the critics of the government, critics of the war…blind idealists with no understanding of human nature. Frankly, the war in Iraq will never succeed until those people are so fed up with blood and death that they’ll set aside centuries of animosity. Had the US simply left or simply gave the country to whomever…the Iraqi’s would never develop an appreciation of the cost of freedom. Cost in blood, arms, legs, lives, Dinars…They have to think of that cost every time they start to think of sending a bomb into a neighborhood. When it sickens them, they’ll have understood the cost of freedom and why it must be preserved.

Venezuela may have to go that route. The idea that Chavez can be painlessly removed probably isn’t realistic. Someone, either on the right or the left, or the Army, would likely step up to take his place and you’d again find yourself with a government not of your own choosing. When it’s so easy to change governments, to rewrite a Constitution, how can it ever be appreciated? Our own Civil War taught us…it may be your turn soon enough. -Rod-

have you guys seem Adam on TV over there or are you hearing things about him through the media?

Hi Karen,

See my previous post. Unfortunately the blog made me trim a bunch of it out so I’m not sure I got to make my point. But I understand what you’re saying. -Rod-

Wow Juan! Hezbollah militants! Ugh!!

I cartainly can’t think of a way for other countries to intervene and play Superman. Venzuela would need to take steps towards a legitiment democracy. We see that happening with the students, for example and voting. But I don’t think that’s enough.

When you have underlying forces contributing to Chavez’s idiotic ideals like the control of terrorists, Columbian drug cartels and alignment with other leaders that have their own agenda… this is very overwhelming for us to watch this happening. I can’t even imagine living through it. I pray for you all.

Rod, what you’re saying to Alessandro makes sense… but here’s what I’m thinking… with the terrorists involved (who each have their own agenda and need Chavez for different purposes) this problem goes way beyond Chavez. Very dismal.

Rod,

I don’t understand why FTA arent’good for America? I believe outsourcing to India or China could be even more damaging than FTA with neighbours — I might be wrong, I don’t think is financing the right word, anyways, FTA should … MUST be beneficial for both parties, otherwise makes no sense. FTA should be a fair interchange of goods. Leftist in S. America say that FTA will only destroy the agriculture (?), intervene the country (?) and let the american empire conquer our countries (?) … I see that FTA will conduit american products into our markets and vice-versa …

Behind FTA is (should be) hard-work and mutual benefits

The .50 cents solution (is that a .50 CAL in his head hahaha) is a quick fix that could be worst … probably it might be creating another figure like the Che ??? Another revolution Hero? Anyways, If I am correct on the .50 cent solution , every venezuelan DREAMS about that hahaha KIL DA M… F…

At this point, we need our own version of PINOCHET who took Chile from a similar situation into one of the best S. Americas countries (more stable in your terms) -

Let me tell you that for almost 50 Years, every country from Mexico to Argentina, has been exposed to Marxism from Cuba, in music, culture, Che Pictures, drugs, guerrillas, etc. Is a constant bombardment. I say the real imperialism comes from Cuba in all forms and fashion.

Karen T-
There only the mention on the gorvement tv for his expulsion. And a link to his blog on http://www.noticias24.com/

surfer–

This is why Chavez was in Guatemala– Guatemala has oil and uses it for domestic use and now Chavez wants his hands on it by promising Guatemala help– refineries—

I heard it from his mouth– today on one of the links—-

Juan,

The FTA’s don’t do much good if the US keeps getting screwed in the deals. We let good in here in record amounts but can’t sell ours in reciprocal fashion. Ideally there’d be equal amounts of imports and exports for all concerned.

That slug in Chavez’s head MUST be followed up by action by the same majority that voted no on the referendum. Only you guys can prevent another strongman from coming to power…and that would also effectively shut FARC and Iran out as well. It really is up to you guys. Middle of the road…not leftist, not rightist. -Rod-

Karen,

I agree with the intervention issue. We venezuelans have to step up.

If ONLY we could have some sort of PATRIOTISM.

Chavez is in power because (in part) of great economic support from the very same wealthy venezuelans who helped him get into power. I still remember how great thinkers and wealthy people and families supported him before 1998.

It’s our own misfurtune and stupidity.

Like Rod said very well, Freedom is not for free, it is very costly and Venezuela ignore the price. Probably we will need to suffer more until we get the message.

That means more venezuelan moving to other countries (ahem, like the US… sorry, like Spain, Costa Rica and even Colombia)

Karen T,
the only info i could find about airline strike was out of Argentina. But, looks like it had far reaching effect into Venezuela.

Not sure if this is what caused Adam’s departure delays.

http://www.eturbonews.com/821/airline-personnel-strike-leads-riot

eeerrr Adam… Where’d ya go?

oh k2… you’re good.. I’ll read it in a second.. have to read what Juan just wrote

Rod,

Sectors in the military are on the move, led by Chavez ex Defense Minister Baduel who now opposes him. Probably he have the necessary leadership to throw chavez away along with a massive, nationwide civil movement. I don’t know other realistic way … The civilians are ready to support that, are the military?

Chavez gives the military great amount of money and corruption to avoid that. Some of them have true patriotism, other love Washington (the one imprinted on the US Dollars bills…)

Juan!! hahahaha… yeah, like you’ll all go to Spain right? That was cute!

The way things are going over here right now, you can give anyone of us 5 bucks and we’ll give you amnesty in return!

Oh Daniel.. I appreciate that…thanks! I’m going to look in a minute!

Current picture of Venezuelan supermarkets:

http://www.noticierodigital.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=327659

Daniel… I’m going to need time to translate that… I noticed there were 65 comments made though.

That’s not a pretty picture, Juan, yet it’s socialism as we’ve all seen it for the last 50 years. -Rod-

Juan
que supermercado es ese?

Karen

HAHA yes, Spain … some venezuelan has Spanish nationality therefore they move to Spain, other simply go “paperless”. Other venezuelan invest in the US and get their visas, get jobs and completly legal, others, let’s say, less legal and then got deported.

Venezuela is a beautiful country, great people, wealthy country and then we screwed it up ….

uummm k2.. that report says that there was a riot and they were destroying ticket counters, they were stranded for 2 days with families! Where ever Adam, Keith and Nora go there is always comotion hahahahah! He fell right into another story that he wasn’t looking for.

I hope we hear from him before the night is over.

Daniel,

es un supermercado Exito, en el foro lo dice, no se exactamente cual, pero asi estan todos … no hay nada pana, ni siquierea papel tualé (toilette paper)

No patriot could possibly support suppressing their own people, not for money, not for a promised position under a dictator. If it hits the fan there, and some support Chavez against the people, they need to be hung from a lightpost when it’s all over, or like Daniel Ortega, they’ll be back eventually. -Rod-

chavez se gasto el papel tuale el 2d

Karen how goes it tonight?

Juan… I gotta laugh at the deportation thing! We’ve had several illegals commit crimes here, get caught and put back into society to commit more heinous crimes and never get deported.

I’ve seen pictures of Spain, gorgeous, not many of Venezuela, but the ones I have seen are mostly attached to terrible stories so I never expected to see beauty when I looked at them. There has to be some really nice spots there, others say it’s beautiful.

Well, I’m really anxious to hear Adam’s report. (Adam, that’s a hint).

Rod, my blood pressure is down because I stayed away from the tiger thread and my daughter went to a sleepover (we like when that happens). I opened an internet CafePress Store so I sit here online for hours at a time making designs that always come out crappy and I blog while I am doing that. Tomorrow is the first time I get to Caucus. That’s it on my end, not an exciting life.

ut oh where you talking to me or k2? bah hahahaha!!!

Karen T
should I just change my name to K2?

besides, I think Rod was asking you.

Yes, I was talking to you, T Cool that the kids are away. It’s always nice to unwind without the screeching. Aren’t you glad the sleepover isn’t at your place?
What’s this about a store? -Rod-

Hey K2…and how are YOU? -Rod-

Karen T
Oops. forgot to add that I left a note for you on the vote blog.

Karen-T

This post talk about how EVA GOLLINGER, an american who support Chavez, is demanding to expel – as you can see the post is LARGE and there are some cute wording against EVA — in plain english hahahaha

k2 that’s the 2nd time somebody wrote to karen and i, being as arrogant as i am, answered twice.

technically i was here first…. soooo… hahahaha, nah, it doesn’t matter, but if somebody writes just Karen, I get dibbs on giving the answer first.

KT–

Translate Eva’s link? from Juan–

Hey Rod.
Doing well. thanks. I think I should change my name to k2.

Just overwhelmed by all the info over the last two days.

and, now looking forward to Chicken Fried Steak tomorrow.

How about you?

Rod, I have over 100 items, T-Shirts, coffe mugs, calendars, crap like that. I make designs for them, different categories are coming out, like internet related, comical, holiday related, things like that. If somebody wants to put their own photos on items they can upload the file to me, things like that. Then CafePress does the work for me as far as the manufacturing and delivery part. I jst started it so it will take about a month to get the kinks out. I do webpage design also, that’s almost completed, but because I waffle soooo much, I kept changing the style.

Eva Gollinger asked for the night of Thursday in the Hojilla the expulsion of the country of the journalist Adam Housley, of FoxNews, to make a news article on full Venezuela “of lies and falsifications.” Housley journalist would be at the moment in the country. The news article assures that Venezuela “is a great freeway” through which they passed the last year 300 tons of cocaine originating of Colombia towards the United States and Europe. That amount would represent a third of all the cocaine that is sold in the world. Eva Gollinger remembered that president Chávez emitted a decree that specified that any journalist who came to Venezuela to say lies would be declared “person nonpleasing” and expelled from the country. It solicitd to apply the decree to the journalist of FoxNews. And what says the news article? That two reasons exist that justify the enormous increase of cocaine traffic through Venezuela. First it is that the DEA has let operate in the country, accused by the government of Chávez to spy for the Americans. And second it suggests the national government would have been sold to the narcotics traffickers, allowing the free cocaine circulation by Venezuela in exchange for money. It argues the news article that the national government cannot extract more petroleum, and therefore to obtain more money, since it counts on obsolete equipment of exploration and production.

KT–

That link has been on the other thread since this morning– several times- people from Venezuela telling Adam to get the hell out of there– but to paraphrase– Eva is whining about Adam’s coverage– denouncing his coverage to be nothing but lies– here is my favorite part– so I copied it so I could translate word by word– it is like a threat–

Eva Gollinger recordó que el presidente Chávez emitió un decreto que especificaba que cualquier periodista que viniera a Venezuela a decir mentiras sería declarado “persona no grata” y expulsado del país. Ella solicitó aplicarle el decreto al periodista de FoxNews.
—————————————————————————————————-

Eva reminded that the president Chavez emitted a decree that specified any reporter who comes to Venezuela to tell lies will be declared- persona non grata- and expelled from the country. She solicited applying this decree to the reporter from Fox News-
—————————————————————————————————————-

******** persona non grata– an unwanted person- esp. a diplomat unaccepted by a county as its ambassador-

Adam is not a diplomat—- Eva-

K2,

I thought the food talk was just fine. It’s a shame some got bent about it. Shrug. I’m thinking it’s time for biscuits and gravy again. Maybe tomorrow I’ll get some Jimmy Dean

I’m…doing ok. Some lady knocked on my door a couple hours ago asking about the hummingbird feeders and the food I feed them, meanwhile she’s freaking out that just 2 feet from her head a dozen or so birds are buzzing around while we stand there and talk. Stuff like that makes my day.

KT,

I knew that name sounded familiar…CafePress. I looked into it a couple of years ago but didn’t think I had any good ideas so shelved it. While *I* like my obnoxious sense of humor, I think it falls flat for a lot of people. Ah well. I hope you do well with it.

My cordless mouse is trying to get my attention…I guess I better charge the batteries up. I’ll be back. -Rod-

Karen(s) …

The post is basically 75% insults to Eva and 25% to Chavez hahaha worthless to translate except the original post/news…. and Karen T already translated

Don’t look anymore for the translation girls– I just did it– the best part–

if you need me, I am going back to the Cartel to see if Daniel is there– he is giving me the heads up with what is going on with Peru and Venezuela– I am trying to put a map together to see who Chavez has or is trying to control and or manipulate–

I translated the wrong one– let me check the other one out

Dear eva… I don’t want to get the information that Adam is reporting on from a Diplomat. I want to get it from a person that I can trust, somebody not in a government position. You’re on the wrong side Eva, Chavez will ultimately fail and you will be a bigger fool than you are now.

Rod,

love the visual i got with the lady and the birds……
still smiling

No I translated the right one– ok here is the bottom half to what I just translated– and then I will put it together as one piece-

Susan, you’re not getting a raise this year.

hey man.. keep it up continue showing what a trash chavez is.. I am from maracaibo venezuela and I live in the USA – if you need some medical assistance let’s find a way..but I will be happy to to tell you more about that country.. my family still there and they will be happy to help you… those chavistas better dont touch you… by the way they all are a bunch of chickens…
GOD BLESS YOU

Hey there Susan! How goes it? Emails are in your inbox… -Rod-

According to Eva, the report is completely wrong.

A small token of truth: Yesterday, a venezuelan ariplane landed on Fort Lauderdale PACKED with 150 Kilos of Cocaine, from where??? Let EVA answer the Question….

http://www1.wsvn.com/news/articles/local/MI73816/

¿Y qué dice el reportaje? Que existen dos razones que justifican el enorme aumento de tráfico de cocaína a través de Venezuela. La primera es que la DEA ha dejado de operar en el país, acusada por el gobierno de Chávez de espiar para los americanos. Y la segunda sugiere que el gobierno nacional se habría vendido a los narcotraficantes, permitiendo la circulación libre de cocaína por Venezuela a cambio de dinero. Argumenta el reportaje que el gobierno nacional no puede extraer más petróleo, y por ende obtener más dinero, ya que cuenta con equipos obsoletos de exploración y producción
———————————————————————————————

And what does the coverage say? That two reasons exist to justify the great amount of traffic going through Venezuela. The first is that the DEA has stopped operating in this country, accused by the government of Chavez as spying for the americans. And the second suggests that the national government is selling to the drug traffickers, permitting the free circulation of cocaine from Venezuela in exchange of money. Arguing the coverage that the national government cannot extract more oil, and to obtain more money, because the machinery is obsolete for exploration and production.

KT,

Right now the feeders are “slow”, only about 6 cups of sugar water/day. Well, it’s 5 pounds every 10 days, so that’s a good perspective. The Summer months is really crazy, about 10 pounds per week. I love the little guys. -Rod-

And the second suggests that the national government is selling to the drug traffickers, permitting the free circulation of cocaine from Venezuela in exchange of money. Arguing the coverage that the national government cannot extract more oil, and to obtain more money, because the machinery is obsolete for exploration and production.

Hi people out there!

I am a Venezuelan and I would like to give my opinion about Adam’s job in Venezuela.

I think he is doing a really good job because he is showing what Chavez’s government hides. A person who supports drug’s smuggling and terrorist organizations like FARC.

What Chavez makes doen’t represent the point of view of all Venezuelan people, and some of us want to stop this nightmare soon.

My words for Adam: Keep going, man!

Thank you

Juan,
nice find.
but, eva will probably say it was a mistake. the plane did not originate in Venezuela….

Chavez shot Venezuela in the foot when he nationalized the oil industry. He didn’t really think the US would keep sending in equipment did he? -Rod-

Rod, and didn’t Adam say Chavez is getting replacement parts from China and they don’t work or was that a joke?

K2

Sure she will, and probably is the DEA who actually placed the drugs to blame Chavez. Or the CIA or the FBI or any other american organization

I might as well do the whole damn article–
Here it is– in full!!!!!

Eva Gollinger solicited thursday night in La Hojilla the expulsion from the country reported Adam Housley, of FOXNEWS, for his coverage on Venezuela “full of lies and falsehoods” The reporter is actually to be found in this country.

The reporter assures that Venezuela is a great expressway for what was last year passed 300 tons of cocaine coming from Colombia to the United States and Europe. This amount represents one third of all the cocaine which is sold in the world.

Eva reminded that the president Chavez emitted a decree that specified any reporter who comes to Venezuela to tell lies will be declared- persona non grata- and expelled from the country. She solicited applying this decree to the reporter from Fox News-

Adam did say that but I don’t think it was a joke.

Adam? -Rod-

Karen2-

PDVSA got oil drills from China and have blown some of them on miss use, it is say because they didn’t understand the instruction on Chinese, but that maybe a joke.

The Major problem with the oil industry is the incompetence and the corruption that has come after Chavez fire 17000 worker after the 2002 strike

Signing off for tonight. Full day tomorrow, so won’t see you until the evening.

Karen T – looking forward to hearing about the Caucus.
Susan – keep some sleep – give your fingers a rest
Rod – what time is breakfast?
To all my new friends in and from Venezuela – we are with you…keep us up to date

and to all i missed – have a good evening – night and see you tomorrow.

Adam, anxiously awaiting your next report / update on the flight from Venezuela.

FOX should consider play this video program on a series, special presentation or something like that:

There’s that word Nightmare again.

BluRay… stay strong!

Noticiero Digital

Eva Gollinger solicitó la noche del jueves en La Hojilla la expulsión del país del periodista Adam Housley, de FoxNews, por realizar un reportaje sobre Venezuela “lleno de mentiras y falsedades.” El periodista Housley se encontraría actualmente en el país.

El reportaje asegura que Venezuela “es una gran autopista” por la que pasaron el año pasado 300 toneladas de cocaína provenientes de Colombia hacia los Estados Unidos y Europa. Esa cantidad representaría un tercio de todo la cocaína que se vende en el mundo.

K2–

NITE– this is fun– I love translating– part of my life out here too-

Juan… that’s what the east is trying to do to us… the terrorists want to convert us all to Islam and if we don’t comply they want to kill us all.

I wish Spain didn’t wimp out on us when they had their 3/11. Immediately after the bombs went off over there, Spain pulled out of Iraq and said they were about to do it anyway. They gave into the Al Queada.

K2–

NITE- this is fun- translating– it is part of my life too out here– xxxx

Did Eva ever write a follow-up report saying what the Columbian drug cartels were doing in Venezuela if they were not there not trafficking drugs? Does she really think that we are all stupid? I don’t see any other purpose than to do trafficking. Chavez is not going to allow trafficking to go on without getting a kickback. Did Eva receive a kickback too?

Adam dear–

In answer to your question- Am I being thrown out? NOPE- EXPULSION–

If you get in here and are too tired to read all- here is one I don’t want you to miss-

Hi Mr. Housley

I’m a journalist in Caracas Venezuela, I’d like an interview with you if it’s possible. I left my email address in the form.

________________________________________________________________——-

hope you are safe– don’t make me wander over to Greta’s again and ask about you!

Your personal assistant,

someone who cares

Adam is on the other thread

Daniel–

I left you a good nite note on the other thread– and thank you for helping me learn more about Venezuela–

buenas noches—

everyone– Adam is safe– he left a message on the Cartel thread–

Adam—

You bet I would have been the most dangerous one– I would have brought Daniel and Alfredo with me— and Karen T– She would have argued with them until there would have been nothing but putting you all first class out of the country–

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

wow! Thank you NY office for not forgetting about us!

Oh, and Adam, you’re not allowed to leave the country anymore and be without an internet connection. We can’t handle the suspense and you weren’t doing any live reports. We entertained the Venezuelan bloggers for you. A great bunch of people. They are all commending you for your reporting. We learned a lot about what’s going on in Venezuela in your absence today.

Ok, I’m done venting.

BAH AHAHAHAHA…Susan you crack me up, I can’t breathe!

Sounds like Adam has a juicy story to tell us.

I wonder what Adam will do first… make a new thread or do replies.

10 bucks says he’ll fall asleep and do neither.

Heya Adam,

I just came in from the front room, been watching the tube for a few hours. I’m glad you popped up finally. I’m sure many of us were wondering what was going on, whether there’d been any trouble. I’m going to go check that other thread. Glad everything is ok! -Rod-

Or not…there isn’t one yet

I’m going to hang out here for another 45 minutes, then hit the sack. -Rod-

Define “Irony”.

Irony: Being anti abortion…the only medical procedure known to prevent liberalism from spreading.

Adam,

cant hugo tap ur phone calls, and track your emails ?

Well, guess I got my last post skunked because of using a bad word to describe Chavez. Anyway, here’s my message to Chavez:

Lay your hands on any of our reporters, and this country will come alive against you Hugo. We aren’t all Cyndi Sheehan or Harry Belafonte. In fact, nearly everyone I know reviles these people for giving you any audience whatsoever.

I do my part ( ban CITGO). We’re not buying it Hugo.

Message for Hugo, from Charlie Daniels:

“From the Sound up in Long Island out to San
Francisco Bay, and ev’ry thing that’s in between
them is our home. And we may have done a little
bit of fighting amongst ourselves, but you outside
people best leave us alone. Cause we’ll all stick
together and you can take that to the bank.
That’s the cowboys and the hippies and the rebels
and the yanks. You just go and lay your hand on a
Pittsburgh Steeler fan and I think you’re gonna
finally understand.”

Karen T : seems your bet was right!

I´m venezuelan. The Chavez´s government supports terrorist organizations openly, like FARC and ELN in Colombia. These groups survive mainly because of protection to cocaine producers and Chavez´s governments offers them a corridor to the US and Europe thru our country. There are enough clues to that. FARC and ELN have safe havens in Venezuela and drug money is starting to flow thru the veins of one particularlly corrupt regime. The threats against you, Mr Housley are not rare in their permanent attack to free press. But venezuelans have almost 50 years of countinuos democracy and have resisted the worst years of this autocratic and undemocratic would-be comunist regime that is been loosing popularity by the day. Please go tho the Gobovision TV network and talk to venezuelans, we´ll support you.

Avi … YES

Hugo taps ALL Phone calls (are beign recorded, not necessarily listened) and only tracks open email without encription that runs on Vzla network.

Wow PEPE i was being sarcastic when i asked !!!!!! Are you certain of this or what? what do you mean by without encription that runs on VZLA network?

Max… yep!

Hi everybody!!

I am a venezuelan student, and I would like to say thanks to Fox News and specially thanks to Adam Housley and his crew for all coverage about Venezuela’s news. Good work guys!! I have been watching you since May, 2007 when you were covering both student’s and chavista’s rallies!!!
If there is anything I can do for you…let me know!
It is good to know there are many people working hard to tell the world the truth about Venezuela and this “Bolivarian Revolution”.
Susan: Your spanish is excellent!
Greetings from Venezuela!!

Glad you are safe Adam. The US Embassy can be a life saver to an American. We need to keep all the workers in our prayers, it is a tough job to live in a country that does not want you there.

Glad I did not have to call Charlie Daniels!

What is Adam doing in the jungle? Do Not taunt the danerous animals and make sure Nora and Eric do Not taunt the dangerous animals!

so adam is in the Jungle? wich jungle ?

Alessandro

hes really in the Bahamas on vacation

To Kathy in Texas…

Trust me, the U.S. Embassy can get Americans killed as well. Just ask the families of Charles Horman and Frank Terrugi in Chile in 1973.

In 1973, both of these men, (along with 3,000 other Chileans) were executed in the Chilean National Stadium. the two Americans were killed because they discovered that there was American involvment and planning of the coup that brought down democraticly elected Salvador Allende.

Since both of these two individuals were journalists. Both were left leaners, so that sealed their fate. Of course, americans do not kill other Americans, nor do they torture. However, Americans will give them over to other countries to do their dirty work for them. That is how they get away with it.

No one from the US Embassy in Chile was EVER held to account for their participation in the murders of these two fellow Americans.

For shame….and now only get reports about how some president chews coco paste of something?

Respectfully,

Gringo in Latin America
