CARACAS, Venezuela - Venezuelan regulators are forcing a local TV station to show public service announcements as punishment for broadcasting "The Simpsons" during a time slot reserved for children's programs.  (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080701/ap_on_fe_st/venezuela_the_simpsons;_ylt=Ao2PuiHZnC.9jJNhUpuQZWouQE4F)

This is only part, a small part, of the f****ng things we venezuelans have to endure from Chavez's government. Moronic laws like this are now everywhere here. In the meantime, a country that has the third biggest oil reserves in the world, has its roads falling apart, its public schools collapsing, its hospitals without proper instruments and medicines, people cannot find milk or rice at the markets....and Chavez gives money to Bolivia, Nicaragua...people her don't have a home, and his government is building houses in Bolivia...arghhhh, sorry for the rant, but now you see why I think Danny Glover is full of sh*t (Danny Glover makes lobby in USA to favor Chavez, and he visited here to praise Chavez social reforms)
