And the people’s army of Hugo Chavez claims another victory in the noble struggle towards a progressive utopia.

Nmmmmm…the depraved, uncivil street “politik” of Bolshevism meets the animist belief systems of an unevolved culture.
Perfect playground for a demon like Chevez…perhaps this elvel of civil evolution deserves no better. All I know id we would be fools to coopt some volitile culture like this into a trade pact.

the MSM would never pass on the trashy scenes of HugoSlavia.
thank God the leftests here tend to dress up in mascot costumes and carry their signs from one rally to the next.

Chavez is going to create continuing problms for the US.
LAtin America and the Souhern hemisphere could do with some good attention from the US. last thing you need are
1) Hostile regimes
2) A human wave moving north to the US because of failed regimes.
Prosperity, which is haoppening in some areas, is good for US and Canadian prosperity.
Chavez will be kept alive by the bubble of oil money. But at some point you think the population would start asking why a so much wealth doesnt seem to transfer into prosperity for themselves, except the bone of some social programs.
Venezuala is what I refer to when people say well Alberta has it easy with all of that oil….Well Venezuala has lots of oil at a lower cost so you can see that management of the resource matters a great deal, along with the government environment.

He’s not dead. Well, he’s…he’s, ah…probably pinin’ for the fjords

It is good news that Brazil’s President “Lula” is meeting with Bush at Camp David. It’s interesting that this is the first time ever that a Brazilian leader has had an overnight stay at Camp David.
Bush had campaigned on more North /South ties with Latin America before he got distracted by 9/11. I hope he can now make some progress within this hemisphere.

Sorry about the frivolous previous post.
I have worked for quite some time in Venezuela and it was a sad, miserable place long before Chavez. Compared to other, poorer Latam countries the population was already beguiled by socialism, beset by resentment, entitlement and victimization.
Chavez is a blessing to Canada as the best people in Venez are leaving and coming here. Make them welcome.

In Saskatchewan in the 1970’s the NDP did EXACTLY what Chavez is trying to do now. Socialists are all the same.

I think it’s a wise move for Bush to get involved with Brazil; Brazil doesn’t want to be taken down the road that Chavez is taking – a socialist smothered dictatorship.
Moving away from oil is also a necessary step – a long term agenda. Oil resource management within nations that are still in a two-class system and have not developed a strong middle class is a recipe for dictatorship. The dictator sets up a small controlling class – and buys support from the worker class with socialism. He represses the emergence of a middle class with a military dictatorship, censorship, etc. That’s the ‘modus operandus’ in the Middle East – and in Venezuala. And in Africa….
Mexico is a different situation for the US; it’s a parasitic leech on the US – sending massive illegal immigrants to the US – who send millions of dollars back to Mexico to support their families. And, importantly, it releases Mexico from having to pay for any infrstructure to support those illegals. No need for Mexico to develop schools, hospitals, housing, roads, industries. Just send all your unemployed to the US. But as illegals, so they don’t pay taxes and send all the money back to Mexico. Quite the tactic.

Dr. Dawg,
You may have to rethink your Hugo worship, it seems his followers don’t like dawgs either.

Amazing how the legacy of the Conquistadors – plunder, loot, oppress – continues to play out centuries later. As a rule of thumb, if Spain was the colonizer, then, the country is a basketcase or can easily revert back to one. The traditional padron system of patronage and kickbacks is alive and well in New Mexico, our truly Spanish rooted state, also, one of the poorest.
You forgot Putin, ET, another thug bouyed by oil revenues. All of the private tv stations are gone now. He’s accelerated past Chavez in killing journalists with impunity.
The really scary thing is that both Putin and Chavez have broad public support. People get the government they deserve.

Hugo Chavez is just another tyrant and petty thug we should have absolutly nothing to do with this jerk or the rotten UN as well

As time goes on, time Chavez has, and will continue to reveal his true colors, just like his idol Castro did when he first conquered Cuba in the late 1950s. Chavez has obviously studied Castro’s methods of taking power. The Americans should squash this bug while they still can.

While considering Hugo Chavez. . .
Try not to overlook the Mexican drug cartels. When a pot farm employs 10,000 workers, run by the army, you could suspect the army, the police and the government.

Venezuela grows this stuff and it comes up through Mexico.

One popular video on the site shows a man being shot in the head. A stomach-churning series of photos shows another execution victim, his missing face a mangled mess of flesh.
More than 2,000 people died last year in a war between the Gulf Cartel from northeastern Mexico and traffickers based in the western state of Sinaloa.

Hugo Chavez, he’s democratically elected, he’s helping the poor in his country and pissing off the Bush regime any time he can. You’ve just got to like a guy like that.

Hmmm. I realize I won’t find very many challenges here with this question (which, I think is a good thing) but I have to ask.
When the rich are suppressed and conquered, when the spoils of a socialist victory have finally been realized, when everyone lives at the lowest common denominator and the many fools among THEM piss away their share, who is going to save them?

and then, to really top it all off, he’s banned liquour sales until Easter. ah well, maybe some will get the idea of what ruling by decree really means now that they’ll have to sober up.
