News of the Restless <http://www.hollow-hill.com/sabina/> A door at the end of a dead-end street... December 29, 2010 Oh gag me, part troisième
Well, well, well. What have we here? Another photo from Carlos Andrés Pérez's funeral? [image: cap-funeral-coffin.jpg] This pic was tweeted <http://twitpic.com/3l15ba> by Carlchucho. He writes: "For those who say a democrat died: At the funeral of CAP, Daniel Romero, Carmona's attorney general." Daniel Romero is the man circled in red. Here's another shot tweeted by Carlchucho <http://twitpic.com/3l17wm>, from a different angle: [image: cap-funeral-coffin2.jpg] Note the expression on Romero's face. It matches the one in the inset, where Romero, morose at having been taken prisoner by Miraflores palace guards, squats miserably in the basement, glowering as he and a roomful of other prisoners are read their rights. It's taken from a scene in *The Revolution Will Not Be Televised*<http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5832390545689805144#>. Here he is in his "finest" hour, abolishing ALL the democratic institutions of Venezuela during the two-day putsch-dictatorship of Pedro Carmona, alias Pedro the Brief, on April 11, 2002: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7u9hm6qGT10&feature=player_embedded The video's mostly in Spanish, but the key part, where Carmona illegally swears himself in as president and Romero demolishes all semblance of Venezuelan democracy, is helpfully subtitled in English. It's fitting that he should be a pallbearer at CAP's mafiosic funeral, since CAP himself called more than once for Hugo Chávez to be executed "like a dog". And since CAP himself also ordered a massacre of his own people--which led directly to Chavecito's military uprising against him three years after the Caracazo. One dearly departed democrat indeed!
