The Commandante is dead but the Revolution continues. If there is an afterlife then Chavez is in Valhalla. He wrote, he read, and mostly he spoke.

The time has come to elect a Queen of the Claddagh on International Women's Day . I propose Marian Price as our first Irish Republican Queen, who represents love, loyalty and honour. Who does not permit the perversion of the course of justice allowing Royal Prerogatives to be shredded by minions that usurp or pervert the law, with theft, wanton destruction and kidnap. read full story / add a comment |
