#2 I still can't believe the 'Red Fist Of Communism' is pounding it's intent , with such speed throughout "W"'s administration; in Venezuela. The buck definitely can't be said, to have been stopped in the Oval Office, and should the ultimate irony play itself out, when Castro dies and Cuba mellows, the hammer and sickle will be tossed to 'Chevy' as our 60's 'Missiles of October' will repeat itself...again!!

#3 AFRICAN CRISIS.net > WORLD WAR III, COLD WAR II: What does PUTIN really stand for? WEEKLY STANDARD > REUBEN JOHNSTON > PUTIN = PLANES, BOMBS, URANIUM, INFRASTRUCTURE, [etc.] FOR SALE. Russia knows war is often based on economics, i.e. the ability to $$$ fund and support ventures. Russia is raking in the dough, while Amer spends and possibly bankrupts itself for the WOT. Articles above includes reminder from PRAVDA/WORLDTRIBUNE > RUSSIAN GENERAL - WAR AGZ AMERICA IN 2015? Arming of PC/PDeniable PROXIES highly useful for Russia [as for USA during Cold War] until 2015 or whenever Russia is finally ready.

#6 If they want to be communist A-holes, let them.
Look at every other practicing communist in the world and wonder why anybody would want that for themselves. Of course there is an attraction to the weak minded to sit back and have the state meet their every need, but I hardly think it's worth it. What they don't seem to understand is that none of that shit is free, it all has to be paid for somehow.

#7 I'm all for letting more fools prove that communism and socialism sucks.

Won't convince our liberals, but maybe the fence sitters will see what a crock the MSM and the democrats are trying to serve the US.

You're assuming an honest assessment of why Venezuela's headed for failure will ever reach the US population. Me, I'm betting the blame falls on the US.

#10 I'm all for letting more fools prove that communism and socialism sucks.

People regularly risk drowning and shark attack to flee Cuba, but that STILL hasn't convinced liberals that communism sucks.
