Dear Editor: Mrs. Gable claims she really knows what’s going on in Venezuela ... she has spent several months before and after April 11, 2002 ... she has visited us several times since ... she has traveled extensively, spoken to many people and witnessed first hand what is really happening here.

She discredits Mr. Labartino better claim to really know what’s going on in Venezuela to his gullible appetite for propaganda ... with a single stroke she disqualifies every thinking Venezuelan who dares to risk a divergent opinion on what’s is really going on in Venezuela ... she apparently knows best!

It is sad and worrisome that there still are around so few people such as Dawn Gable who are too prone to believe their own lies and half-truths, and so quick to talk about the responsibilities and accountability that come with acknowledging the truth and acting upon it.

As a Venezuelan I have no qualms with VHeadline.com and celebrate really independent reporters who are not afraid to tell the truth, whatever it may be ... I very much doubt Mrs. Gable fits the profile.
