I came across this video today http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3739500579629840148&q=war+on+democracy&ei=yVx1SMGLJIrQ4gL325GcCw&hl=en and i must say if its true it changes my opinion of hugo chavez.

When he came and gave that speech at the UN and called george bush the devil i thought he was a overzelous dictator hellbent on inciting contention.But if its partly true i can see the anger people would have at the US, for intentially overthrowing and manipulating other goverments to feed the american corprate machine.

Ill hold my judgement for now though,but i was wondering if people have any other info on americas dealings with central american and south america espescially venezeula.

btw i came across this video with a browser addon i highly recomend.Its called stumble ,downloaded at www.stumbleupon.com .With it you can randomly browse internet sites or videos by your selected topics like libertys and rights,science ,religion ect..

Hugo is a devout socialist...so while I find his statements accurate, he, himself, is one too.

In his country they pay 0.11 cents per gallon of gasoline....why? They produce their own oil, yes...but more importantly it's subsidized to that point as well which means there's a hefty tax burden or cut into the private-sector somewhere.

plus, IIRC he's fullly on-board with the Union of South American Nations (I just called i the SAU)...so that goes to show you how much of a devil (or at the very least, naive) he is.
