Merry Christmas from Venezuela

December 11th, 2011

Merry Chavezmas

Hugo Chávez, the savior of Venezuela if not the entire world, was prominently featured in a Nativity display in Caracas.

A figurine of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez (C) is seen in a recreation of a Nativity scene in Caracas December 8, 2011. The Nativity scene in Caracas showing the socialist president standing before the traditional crib-in-a-manger has stirred up a pre-Christmas controversy in the politically polarized country. Picture taken December 8, 2011

Isn’t He just too precious!

Where’s the ACLU when you need them? Surely their Caracas office will file a lawsuit demanding that this offensive display be removed! Then Chavez and his generals will be left standing alone….

Hummmmm. Amigos de Chávez Libertad Universal?

See, you learn something every day! I didn’t know what ACLU stands for, but now it all makes sense.

Alas, according to a painting on display at the “Nazional Guard headquarters of the Andes region (San Cristobal),” el Presidente Chavez is now in Heaven. Read more here.

Transitioning from a nativity scene to Heaven in such short order clearly demonstrates the true magnificence of his Holiness, el Thugo. What can he possibly do for an encore?
