#1 âAs we have said before, any allegations that we are planning to take hostile action against the Venezuelan government are completely baseless and without fact,â McCormack added.

So does the denial mean that we are already taking hostile actions against the Venezuelan government as we speak [or type]? Execution of a plan occurs after the planning stage.

#2 Anyone notice the press is more interested in an idiot on the right calling for the assassination of a third-world dictator than in leftist idiots calling for the assassination of the president?

#5 "Our department doesnât do that type of thing,â Rumsfeld said"

Ah!! but we have other departments, kemosabe.

Since the Iranians are building terrorist bases there, I think it'll be a photo finish between the CIA and the Mossad.

#8 Pat forgot to include the big puppet[tm] of Chavez in his speech. Top that with not doing it in Spanish [thus excluding most of the MSM covering it] and not having useful agents hold signs in Spanish proclaiming the act, Pat loses big point both in style and execution. 3/3.
