Obama spokesmen imposes tough requirements for improved US-Venezuela relation

November 7, 2008


Well, someone in the Obama camp certainly
gets it when it comes to what the Chavez autocracy is all about, I hope this guy gets appointed somewhere close to the President
elect:

Obama
campaign spokesman Alejandro Miyar responded that Washington’s relationship
with Venezuela will not improve unless Chavez “respects democracy and the rule
of law.”

The statement contains two of the three basic elements
missing from Chavez’ autocracy, I just wish Mr. Miyar had explicitly added
human rights to the request, but two out of three ain’t bad. Democracy includes respect for human rights, but it would have been a nice and very complete message anyway.
