#2 Chavez is paranoid already, now, with commander Pat, we'll drive him over the cliff.

#3 Paranoid isn't the word for 8-ball Chavez. No wonder he thinks Bush's neo-con ninja's are hiding in the ceiling tiles. Alo Presidente!

#4 Nah, tosting El Presidente I don't think would solve the problem. Instead, kill off the entire level of people just below him, whatever ministers, etc that he has. Then let him stew in what might have been.

#5 Well Pat long ago "lost it." He is talking out of hand and needs to keep thoughts like this to himself. Hugo being the legend in his own mind he is will just use this to justify some new off the wall crap. The Venezuelan people have first shot at this flake should it become a problem. If they don't deal with it then I am all for old El Reaper Severo paying Hugo a early visit.

#6 It's not very appropriate for a religious minister to be saying things like this. That said, Hugo's demise would be a very good thing and if someone should choose to expedite it, they would certainly have my approval. Personally, I'd like to see him commit suicide. Just like Allende did--shooting himself multiple times with an automatic weapon.

#7 Assassination would only make things worse. He'd become a martyr and a hero of the International Left like the former 3rd rate Marxist, Allende. This guy is a clown and will eventually undo himself. He's such a lunatic that even American Liberals are weary of him now. Plus, the bastard did win an election and even if his most recent referendum was flawed, it's pretty clear that he still has a lot of popularity at home - though plenty of opposition. Give him more time to blunder about and discredit himself.

As for Robertson, he's a disgrace.

#9 Pat's got a really bad habit of sticking his foot inadvertantly into his own A*& as well as those of his friends and foes. Why can't he phuking stick to preaching and collecting money from his flock?! I think he's getting more than a little senile at this juncture.

#11 Pat is a man of the cloth. He needs to stick to matters of personal salvation.

Chavez needs to be allowed to dismantle Venezuela brick by brick. That way, leftists can't come back to tell us, decades later, that he was on the verge of establishing paradise on earth until Uncle Sam stepped on him. Allende needed to be put down, but he was a special case - (1) he was toppled by Chilean army officers, (2) the Soviets were trying to export communist revolution throughout Latin America, and had the resources to do so - Venezuela will have enough problems just keeping itself afloat.

#14 What is really sad is that every time Pat says something moonbattery like this the left latches onto it as if Bush said it in a speech. The party line on that side is: "Well, he is a christian, you are a christian, so you must agree with him." It just makes everyone on the right look bad and I wish he would just shut up.

There was a time when Celtic priests had the function of egging on the troops. Robertson appears to have assumed this role with gusto.

#17 Isnt Pat one of Georges close allies, No, President Bush is a Church-going Methodist.

is'nt [sic] " thou shalt not kill" on the list of the 10 good things to do
The actual commandment in the original Hebrew is "No murdering." Murder, my dear bk, is the extra-judicial killing by an individual. Judicial killing by the State is called execution. And the Old Testament has plenty of examples where an individual is allowed to fight an attacker to the death, or where the community is required to execute a criminal or kill the enemy in war. The Jewish God has never required its religion to be a suicide pact.

#18 Pat Robertson is a paranoid, corrupt, money-grubber, who fleeces the flock, and then builds restaurants, hotels, and other businesses/investments with the money for his own profit. He built his student housing over a toxic landfill dump for pennies, and everyone gets sick. All the units are wired for sound and his securitazi force monitors what goes on in all of the apartments from a base at the center of his "plantation." He trounces professors (and anyone else) who criticize him or calsl his bluff, and then ruins their careers if he can. He backs up child abusers if they call themselves "christians" and makes up stories for the broadcasts he runs. For Pat, it's ALL ABOUT THE MONEY. Now, even that's not enough, looks like. Money gets old. Power becomes the next plaything of these types. Beware of slick southern carpet baggers with a cross on their lapel . . .

#19 Actually bk it's "Thou Shall Not Murder." The version you quoted was a completely unintentional mistranslation made in the King James version. Killing is not always murder. Still, what Pat is talking about is actually murder, so he should STFU and stick to fleecing his flock.

What Abd Al-Sabour Shahin suggested sounds like the right plan to me: let this moonbat ruin his nation, loose his popular support, and make powerful enemies. He will, you know, and it will hurt Venezuela a lot more than it will hurt us. The USA needs to be patient on this one. Both Castro and his brother Raoul (Cuba's #2 man) are very old men; they're not going to live much longer, and when they die things are going to change very quickly in Cuba. I am counting on sipping rum punch beneath a spinning a roulette wheel in Havana with a smiling hooker on my arm before I shuck off my mortal coil.

In the meantime, we treat Chavez like the obnoxious political 8 year old he is: patiently, sternly, with a lot of spankings. Kill him and he becomes a moonbat martyr. Let him live and he becomes one of historyâs fools.

#20 *yawn* Pat Robertson's an idiot. No big news there.

Of course, he'll get feathered and tarred for this while the imams who preach jihad, murder, and martyrdom on a daily basis the world over get a free pass.

But then condemning them would mean we're insensitive to their culture.

#21 Someone else would just come up to the plate if Chavez were gone, don't you think? We need to stop the mind set that is followed. As far as Robertson, it's sad that our MSM quotes him to the masses as a leader of anything other than religious topics.
Does Chavez have a food tester?
lol

#23 Anyone think Pat could be a lefty mole?
I have had a low opinion of the man ever since I saw a video of him attempting to cast out a worshipper's hemorrhoids back in the 80s. In Europe, of course, the media masses are led to believe that Bush and the Republican Party are essentially identical to the religious right and that nutcakes like Robertson are major national leaders. This is a major theme, for example, of British biologist Richard Dawkins, a great scientist but a demogogue and a bigot when it comes to politics.

#26 Y'all keep mentioning the concept of Chavez "losing his popular support at home," but I'm under the impression that he doesn't have that much to begin with, and was only able to survive the referendum last year because it was rigged. (I guess screwing up the USA wasn't good enough for Jimmy the Dhimmi, he needed to help screw up Venezuela as an encore.)

#27 Secret Master,

"let this moonbat ruin his nation,"
The only problem is that he is letting Iran build terrorist bases in his country. Otherwise, I don't give crap what he does.

SteveS,
LOL! Also, Who would Jesus bomb? is a typical moonbat theme to get the conversation of topic. I saw a lot of this on the Sheehan blog.
