The MSM media loves tyrants and moonbats. Two of their favorites are Hugo Chavez(tyrant) and Cindy Sheehan(moonbat), pictured together.
First to the tyrant, the BBC is reporting “Chavez to shut down opposition TV [1] :”
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has said he will not renew the licence for the country’s second largest TV channel which he said expired in March 2007.
Just who does Hugo Chavez think he is: John McCain? Chavez wasn’t content to restrict free speech just doing election season, he wants to permanently silence his opposition.
Captain Ed offers background [2].
Meanwhile back on the moonbat ranch, Mrs Sheehan comes out in favor of “objective tests [3]:”
I believe his pardon of Richard Nixon is one of the factors that have led to the untimely deaths of over 3000 American soldiers and hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians in the Middle East
Mrs. Sheehan adds:
No, the United States of America is not a “banana republic” Mr. Talking Head, but since Nixon got away with his blatant crimes and every President since Nixon has skated away from office after having committed overt and covert crimes, we have on our hands, here, a situation that I am forced now to call: “Bloody George.”
No Mrs. Sheehan, the United States is not a banana republic. We don’t shut down free speech, expect of course during election season.
