Tonight it was proven beyond any reasonable doubt why the Chavez Government is simply a dictatorial and outlaw Government. Last week the pro-Chavez thugs held a meeting of the National Assembly outside of the Capital building in order to approve a new set of regulations for the way debate is handled and how the Assembly works. The idea was to reduce quorum and votes to an absurd one third for committees. The spurious meeting was held at the El Calvario park and reportedly 92 Deputies voted in favor of the reforms. Well, today the Assembly met back in the Capital building and the Chavistas FAILED to approve the minutes of that other meeting, which implies that the new regulations have not been approved. After two rounds of votes, the votes are tied, according to the Government and the minutes were rejected according to the opposition. To me, independent of the interpretation is that the vote shows that this is a mockery of a Government that through tricks and cheating wants to impose its will. Whatever happened to the ten “extra” Deputies that approved the changes last week? Where were they today? Simply, the meeting of the Assembly was not only illegal, but the Deputies never existed!!!
