Did Hugo Chavez give the World a preview of the Clinton adminstration redux? Like Chavez, the Clinton’s can not abide dissent. Matthew Walter and Steven Bodzin:
Nov. 7 (Bloomberg [1]) — Venezuelan student protesters were fired on, resulting in two gun-shot injuries, when they returned to campus today from a march opposing President Hugo Chavez’s plan to rewrite the nation’s constitution.
Seven more victims suffered other injuries, according to university official. Local television station Globovision broadcast images of protesters running for cover during the incident on the campus of the Universidad Central de Venezuela. One image showed a man in a black leather jacket firing a pistol twice. Interior Minister Pedro Carreno said at 7:10 p.m. New York time that the situation was under control.
Aside to Keith Olbermann, look at the bright side, at least Chavez did not water board the protesters.
