Inuyasha said:Did I write the article? We don't need to do what Venezuela is doing to improve its lot. And Venezuela can't do what we do. They are too far down the food chain. They have to do what they have to do. Now my question to you (in the plural) Do you want to invade them and set up a pro-American government with a military dictator?
Here is am other site. Beware anti-Venezuelans it is pro-Chavez. Can you find me its opposite number.? I have searched but so far I can't find one..
I just questioned your intentions on why you would link an article like this one, it's obviously a socialists view of the situation. I have always found it interesting that some folks can assume the worst about someone intentions, and motivations, just because they may be rich, successful, wealthy, etc. This does not seem any different then most countries, 20% of a country being well off that is, I don't see the problem, and I certainly don't see the need to apologize for being wealthy. The point I am making is this, this is how most dictators have come to power, this same rhetoric gets them elected, but they rarely follow through. To answer your question, no, I do not want to overthrow Chavez, nor do I want to install any leader. I would like to see them do this, and I think we can help by assuring that the elections are fair. I think Carter did nothing more then lend his face and name, though I think the elections were clear, Hugo was the popular choice. I only now, believe that he has lost a lot of support, and he realizes this, now he must act quickly to hold on to his power. His actions as of late, they seem those of a desperate man, one that knows his popularity is at risk, so he blames others, mainly the U.S. This is all very carefully planned and plotted, democracy is being threatened there IMO, and it's disturbing to me.
