Is this the best you can do nowadays, Delacour, an entertainer supporting Chavez?
A clown for a clown.
Why don't you write about Venezuela being the ONLY country in the WORLD reporting negative economic growth in 2009 and 10?
Because you are a propagandist.

Would you care to actually address the substance of what Penn says, or would that be too complicated for you Miami types?

Jut prove me wrong.
Quote Lady Ga Ga or any other celebrity if you need.

But prove that Venezuela’s economic performance is not a miserable failure.

Keep using discriminatory language, generalizing and insulting the population of a city in your own country. Any city, Salt Lake City, Dallas, your own home town if you want, but prove me wrong.

Facts man.

Try it. It is always better to think than to discriminate or to rely on celebrities to make political comments.
