Venezuela's parliament has given preliminary approval for President Hugo Chavez to rule South America's top oil producer by decree for a year, prompting opposition accusations that the socialist leader is behaving like a dictator.

...


The current parliament is almost entirely made up of allies because the opposition chose not to participate in legislative elections in 2005, making it a rubber-stamp assembly.

Oh shit...I guess that doesn't work after all. ;)

+Rep for you. I can't believe people don't vote JUST IN CASE it makes things better.

I vote as a defense. If I can do something that minimizes the harm the government does I will do it.
