CHAVEZ STOLEN ELECTION



Interesting take here on the result of the Venezuelan election "won" by communist poster boy, Hugo Chavez.



"The nub of the problem is this: While exit polls conducted by the very reliable American firm of Penn, Schoen, and Berland showed Chavez losing by a large margin (59 – 41), the official results put Chavez free and clear by a vote of 58 to 41 percent. How could the exit polls be nearly 40 points off? The short answer is, they weren’t. Chavez, whose anti-democratic, pro-Castro sympathies are openly proclaimed (he tried to block the constitutionally-mandated referendum for months), stole the election."



Jimmy Carter has been quick to defend the Chavez victory and this article neatly dissects peanut brains contribution to anti-Americanism.
