#1 Sounds about like time for a fly over and doing some leaflet dropping.

#2 I'm not really pro-American, I'm rather anti-anti-american, as I've found and believe that anti-americanism not only blinds those who follow it, but it's also used to hide false ideologies from being exposed to the light of truth (to use a pretentious wording).

IE, I'm not opposed to anti-americans (and God know they are A-PLENTY here in France) per se, but because of what lurks behind their anti-americanism, be they useful idiots or aware of it.

All this to say that chavez is a perfect illustration of that... his anti-americanism both stem from and hides his marxist (and anti-white) core, and is used to fool the rubes, blinding at least some of them to the fact that the real and worst ennemy of the venezuelan people is, well, hugo the (dangerous) buffoon himself.

#3 America had a chance to remove Chavez when they had their coup. we didn't care enough so why would we bother now that we're invested in Iraq? I think a few Venezuelans have an over-inflated view of their importances.

#6 Hugo is no Marxist, he just wants to "spread the wealth around".
