I think you've misunderstood Latin America if you think being a Catholic and a Marxist are contradictory :lol:
Let's bomb Russia!

Maduro looks like a spokesman for Just for Men.

The fucker played the augur in a Catholic church. That alone is grounds for ridicule.

True, but the Catholic thing seems to be show in this particular case (and in Chavez's).

Maybe, I mean we can't see into their souls. But in fairness Catholicism's more showy :P

To me it looks more like those Catholic football players crossing themselves before a game. It could be sincere, superstitious, cultural, just a ploy to get the old lady vote or a bit of all of the above :lol:

The US still hasn't recognized the results of the election, for whatever that's worth.  Kind of an easy one to get right, but kudos to Obama & Lurch nonetheless.

The Minsky Moment

Chavist Venezuela is a variant on Marx's dictum that history repeats itself, first as farce, and then as an even more absurd farce.
We have, accordingly, always had plenty of excellent lawyers, though we often had to do without even tolerable administrators, and seen destined to endure the inconvenience of hereafter doing without any constructive statesmen at all.
--Woodrow Wilson
