Venezuela brings ports under federal control

CARACAS, Venezuela - Venezuela's federal government seized seaports and airstrips in at least four states Saturday, a move critics say is meant to limit the powers of mayors and governors opposed to President Hugo Chavez.

    I'm sure it's simply to streamline the vast selection of consumer goods that marxist dictatorships are known for. :D

    The next North Korea...

    Wake me up when I'm either being deployed, they get nukes, or this idiocy spreads to other Latin-American countries.

    Yup, in a normal country, you would say ' so what '
    I mean, Canadian ports are federal.

    but this move is so laced with politics, it just stinks.
    The descent continues.

    Shame, one of the guys I watch Nascar with is from Venezuela.
    He is thinking about leaving.

    Colombian rebels deny Venezuelan funding
    The Associated Press

    7:44 AM EDT, March 20, 2008

    Bogota, Colombia
    Colombia's main rebel force denied claims that a laptop recovered in a raid that killed one of its top leaders proves it gets support from the leftist governments in Venezuela and Ecuador, according to reports Wednesday.

    In a statement delivered to the Venezuelan government-funded channel Telesur, the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, argued the computer could not have survived the bombing of one of its camps in Ecuador that killed its spokesman Raul Reyes and 23 others.

    In a separate statement, the rebels named the replacement for one of two recently slain leaders on their ruling seven-man junta.

    Colombian officials did not immediately return telephones calls seeking comment.
