Show me one speck of evidence that Bush was a hero anywhere. How is Chevez bringing war anywhere? Btw, Chevez won his election by a healthy majority. (58 percent)
Ever watch Jesus camp? Some people literally worship him. Alot of people really did think of him as the greatest president ever on his last election. And the more people who turned out to vote the better he did. Meaning those who didn't vote were far more likely to be pro-bush.
He was adored with what, 62% approval ratings for along time (higher than Chavez).
And he was just as polarizing. While 58% voted for Chavez the other 42% would kill him if they could. 8% is not a healthy enough majority to turn the country to a communist totalitarian state. If he had 75% or 80% instead of 58% then it is a healthy majority.
About half of his population (give or take 008/100) despise him with more loathing than any american has for Bush (ever see open warfare in the streets to topple Bush?)
Lets not even start with those Columbians who really don't like armed paramilitary forces being sent into their villages to assert control, shooting up dissidents who you know, like to elect their leaders rather than have a foriegn nation appoint them.
So again, I'd like a little consistency.
