We Three Kings

Did I say Kings? I meant Presidents, of course. These three guys: Putin, Chavez, and Castro.

Examples of so-called democracies who are engineering their own permanent re-election. Come on guys, you're not fooling anyone. Raul Castro is already there by dint of his brother's fiat, the other guys are still pretending.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has announced a plan to seek a constitutional amendment to allow him to stand for re-election.

Report suggests that President Medvedev will make reforms to allow Putin to stay as president until 2021.

The Cuban Parliament named Raúl Castro president Sunday, ending nearly 50 years of rule by his brother Fidel but leaving the island's Communist system unshaken.


And you thought this was an Advent post.
