Unpopular Venezuela's Pres Chavez Targets CNN Now

Unfortunately, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is not shutting up anytime soon, his new outrage is over CNN making another screw-up in production that aired briefly yesterday. Apparently Chavez's picture was misplaced over the text intended for murdered football star, Sean Taylor with a caption underneath reading "Who Killed him?" Within a few moments, the anchor realized the mistake and it was taken down. Chavez's rhetoric is the U.S. TV network may have been instigating his murder. Does this mean now, Chavez will get his news from Fox?
But Chavez called for a probe in an interview on state television, where he repeatedly reviewed a tape of the broadcast, questioning why the unconnected photograph and wording were left on screen for several seconds.

"I want the state prosecutor to look into bringing a suit against CNN for instigating murder in Venezuela," he said. "... undoubtedly it is part of the psychological warfare."
He sounds extremely paranoided.

The unpopular Hugo Chavez is obviously suffering from a breakdown. Lately, with one dispute right after another with Spain, Columbia, and the Roman Catholic Church, he is appearing desperate to blame the United States, once again, for all his problems.

This Saturday, Dec 2nd, the country of Venezuela will go to the polls and vote yes or no to give Chavez a position of being a dictator for life. He has threatened opposing Venezuelans if they do not vote in favor of him. The protest continue..... With no respect from the world or from his country, Chavez is desperate to be heard. What is next?
