“Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez removed a key obstacle to his plan to remain in office for life, convincing voters Sunday to approve constitutional amendments designed to allow indefinite re-election,” according to the Wall Street Journal.
Great. Now Santa Ana Mayor Miguel Pulido will draft a similar measure for Santa Ana. Wait, he already has no term limits! Never mind…maybe Pulido gave Chavez the idea in the first place!

Obama could take a cue from Chavez. He needs to change the constitution now so that he can be President for life so we can slip into Chavez’s 21st Century Socialism platform too.
Who needs term limits?
Ford didn’t, Carter didn’t, Bush #1 didn’t, LBJ didn’t, Kennedy didn’t, Nixon didn’t.
Of the nine presidents before Obama, 6 left office before term limits kicked in, and only 3 left because of term limits.
What dictator? He was elected.
This one’s for you, tyranny! Looks like Chavez is going the exact opposite of the Left. Unbelievable…
