Freedom Socialist • Vol. 29, No. 3 • June-July 2008
“When arguments are nowhere to be found, they lay their hands on latrines”

“We believe that because the Venezuelan revolutionary process is at a crossroads, a clarifying debate is more necessary than ever, and unfounded accusations do not help to throw light on the picture.

“We shall continue fighting at the side of the workers to deepen this process and to clear up the confusion Chávez has woven around socialism. ... We do not pretend to be chieftains of absolute truth, but errors that have led to defeats elsewhere must be exposed. [In the vote on constitutional changes] the people perceived the truth and spoke. Now it is up to revolutionaries to understand the message and to act.”

— from a reply to James Petras by Socialist Workers’ Unity (UST), Venezuela
