``why has the conversation about Chavez turned into a conversation about Bush?``

It's the proper thing to do in order to give balance to the warped right wing views which are so lacking in logic and common sense.
But ... but ... but the topic isn't about Bush: it's about shutting up about Chavez and people just don't seem to want to. Ever read the list of false arguments? It includes things such as sidetracking the real topic.

Anyway, I personally don't give a hoot what sort of gov't anyone has, the majority of them prove to be idiotic whether rightie or leftie. So, really whether it's Bush or Chavez, they ain't worth a pinch of coonsh|t in my books.

And it proves Venezuela is a democracy unlike Pakistan!

IMPEACH MUSHARRAF!!!


In a sense all dictatorships are partly democracies because in theory they can be over turned by revolution. I'd rather be happy for the the Venezuelans for this expression of democracy then bicker about how fair the electoral process in Venezuela is.

Who's my war?

I'm not at war with anyone.

Stay on topic. There is no war with Venezuela.

Stay on topic? HA! Stay on topic and admit faults? Failures?

When things get tough...deflect my friend. Bring up Bush, Iraq, Pakistan...spin the thread into another thread. That is the plan.

Actually threats of intimidation and violence were still leveled at Chavez, but no one bothered following up on them since they won anyways.

Uhm...

No, Chavez is the one who shoots protestors in the street and stages violent military coups. Say what you want about Bush (and there is plenty to say), but he's never done that.

Bush has just killed about a million Iraqis during the war he started there.....Your hate for Chavez won't help that...

Is it possible that Hugo Chavez's giant ego really thought there was no way he'd lose ?

Strutting for hours on commandeered television time on all the networks in Venezuela seems self-love knows no bounds in this on-going homage to solopsism.

Shut Up (About) Chavez

By Paul Buchheit
11/24/07 "ICH" -- -- It gets tiresome to hear the one-sided media coverage of Hugo Chavez. Yes, he’s authoritarian. He’s also abrasive, arrogant, stubborn, and all too human. But he knows what happened to leaders in Iran and Guatemala and Chile and Haiti over the past half-century when they tried to defy the western world by nationalizing oil and other industries. He’s influenced by the memory of the US-backed attempt to depose him in 2002. And he can see the effects of unregulated multinational companies in Nigeria, where in 2004 80% of the revenue from the oil industry went to only 1% of the population, and only 2% of Shell Oil’s employees were from the local population.
Chavez has alienated the wealthy, the business establishment, thousands of upper-class student protestors, and, perhaps worst of all for him, the media. But the mainstream media rarely speaks for the poor majority. Chavez has instituted a literacy program, land-acquisition policies that benefit the poor, job training for unskilled workers, free health care, and manufacturing cooperatives which give the poor an active role in business development. He was democratically elected, and recent polls still place him about 20 percentage points ahead of his nearest challenger.

Chavez is the best leader in the world, he is saying a big ".G.o f.u..ck .you.r.." to the us-coorporations arrogance i would certainly give my life for a guy like that.

In canada they have politiciens who are ready to bend over for the US coorporation,where the people has absolutly no say,quite irronic, and most people here are talking chavez being a dictators, hilarious i should say.

He has done pretty nasty things, however he has done it for the poor(majority), where they had no id, no land no house, that is greath, with chavez, this is old story.

Just by seeing here, those who still think chavez is bad, and harper is nice, i can already see, what kind of people you are........

So thank you very much , darkbeaver to bring this to us.

And Chavez has killed a greater proportion of people in regards to his resources with his dream of communist empire.

Put Chavez in charge of the US and its resources and far more than a million would die.

Your hate for Bush won't fix the wrongs a brutal murderer intent on ruling through force.
