#4  I note (With supressed glee) that many Dictators "Go Abroad" and cannot return because while they were gone their Government changed hands.
I can only hope the pattern repeats itself.

#3  Chavez doesn't need the US. He's in the process of turning Venzuela into Paradise On Earth based upon the economic principles of Fidel Castro, Robert Mugabe, and Kim Sung Il.

#2  To the best of my knowledge nobody paid any real attention to El Gordo. Pat Robertson holds no off office. Condoleeza Rice paid minimal attention to him.

#1  Chavez said the Rev. Jesse Jackson and U.S. Rep. Jose Serrano, D-N.Y., who sat with him at the church, had advised him "not to be provoked" by representatives of the U.S. government.

I'm just having a hard time reading things tonight. Was Serrano provoking him? I suppose it could have been Jackson, but he is not an "official" representative of the US government. Were other congressmen there? I'm confused.
