71. Unlike Police State USAmerika
Edited on Fri Oct-12-07 11:08 PM by ProudDad
The Venezuelan government did NOT ban him...as Police State USAmerika bans Cuban performers and musicians...

The Government of Venezuela denied him use of the People of Venezuela's venue just as the coup plotters and abettors at RCTV weren't allowed to use the People of Venezuela's airwaves any more...

Both quite reasonable actions for a budding revolution...

I'm sure that in USAmerica in 1789 there would have been little patience with (or any venue for) a British "entertainer" who showed up in Boston after calling George Washington a "disgraceful President" who should immediately resign because a few thousand Tories signed a petition to remove him...
