    Venezuela has a lot of oil and they are tight with Iran. We better be concerned about what happens in that country.

    This is one of the reasons the US supports Israel:

    Yes.

    I know.

    I don't think people are 'born evil'.

    They are made that way.

    It's a complete myth that Chavez controls the media in Venezuela.

    Except their actions affect the international oil market and their mischief screws with other less Marxist nations in the region.

    There are other sources for us to get our oil from who are friendly with the USA; I'm not that concerned with Venezuela.

    LMAO.. I hope the Venezuelans enjoy eating leftwing populist ideology. I bet it'll smell real good in an empty pot.

    "What? A SOCIALIST was democratically elected because his right wing opposition supports the United States and the people find the idea of electing them into power repugnant, even if the population didn't overwhelmingly support Chavez!? This is clearly a sham election because they're not supporting us!"

    Hahaha. Oh American conservatives, never change.

    Wait, no...the opposite of that.

    If you embrace the sickle and hammer of communist revolution, you are no friend of mine anyway. I spit upon Chavez and the communist people of Venezuela.

    "Damm those Venezuelans didn't vote for who we wanted them to vote for. The election must have been rigged by those damm commies."

    Isn't it crazy how the entire world doesn't share the same values as a few hundred million people?

    Nope, fascists are definitely populists - at least in the time leading up to their seizing of power. Fascist combine rhetoric from the far left and far right, then once they get into power create a police state to maintain capitalism and crush opposition from the workers.

    It's common knowledge that the Venezuelan media is controlled by the oligarchic opposition.

    Populist rhetoric doesnt make someone a populist. But yeah, you're absolutely right.

    Except that they are not Communist, and your post yet again demonstrates ignorance. Not unexpected.

    Didn't Dubya win when the exit polls gave it to Gore in Florida?
    Correct me if I am wrong, since I am not 'Murkan, but I do have a memory.
