Their oil gives them substantial more leverage Over the empire than Cuba in it’s early socialist days.

It never looks good, however, when ANYBODY shuts down ‘media/news’ centers in their country. One can only hope that it was truly because those ‘news’ centers truly were emirial propaganda outlets like fox news. But how do we know for sure?

I just want to add that, being a native Spanish speaker, it is too bad Americans cannot hear this man talk in his native tongue -without translation. I’ve never heard another human being discuss topics of history, politics, and culture with such depth, truth, and honesty as Hugo Chavez. Oh yes, he is also quite hilarious, but unfortunately most of the time his humor is lost in translation.

Well, after all, Chavez did dare expose the fake attack on the synagogue anti-semitic attack hoax.
(Number 12,327, give or take a few dozen)

That puts him right up there at the top of the list of terrorists.
You know, a synagogue attack denier.
(even if it’s not true, it’s true)

Let us see now. Just who are these fine
American congress persons working so devoutly together in such a bi-partisan manner?

Rep. Connie Mack (Rep. FL), Rep. Ron Klein (Dem. FL) and Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R. FL).
Well, well, well. Who’d a thunk it?

Same old dumbass US foreign policy.Prospects will not change until the US public make major shifts in perspectives, some of the major which are: cutting defense spending about 75% which will still leave us with biggest military and will not reduce our security a bit but will increase it if accompanied by non-hypocritical non-imperialistic cooperative policies; stopping all aid monetary and diplomatic to the apartheid colonialist despicable Israel government and shift support to the Palestinian victims; restoring the top progressive tax rate to the past 90%; eliminate the extension of individual legal rights to corporations and expand the legal penalties for corporate fraud and illegal activity to personal penalties for corporate management;cap corporate management annual “cash” compensation and limit other compensation to corporate stock with limits on the rights to trade it to long terms reflecting their decision impact on corporate health (5 years +); taxation increases effectively doubling the prices of fossil fuels and gasoline cars; usage of the substantial revenues from the above on social improvements like real universal government funded healthcare for all, universal higher education, stimulating renewable fuels usage and development and softening the impact of the new taxes on the poor…. I don’t expect to see it…unless I live to see the crash
