#1 If ever there were a place that justified direct US intervention, it's Venezuela. Chavez is just another Noriega with pretensions. The fact that he's been allowed to pervert Venezuela's democracy has been a destabilizing factor for all of South America. Castro is going to die soon of old age, but Hugo and Lula could use a little help shuffling off this mortal coil.

#2 Hey, Hugo! If we decided to "intervene", you'd know. Until then, STFU!

Actually, he's making these noises to endear himself to anti-American sentiment. For those folks, he doesn't need evidence, just the right words. I figure he'll be called a "great statesman" by a Democrat sometime this summer, if it hasn't already happened.

#4 Bush has done a good job in not taking the bait. I'll check Boucher's breifing and see if it came up.
