I had a roommate in college, a refugee from Argentina who married an American girl for a green card or something and he INSISTED Juan Peron was a RIGHT-WING fascist leader of a military JUNTA, yadda yadda.

You sure he wasn't talking about Chile's Pinochet? At least that one led a military junta, and was somewhat to the right of center.

DOH!

Yes. Chile. The guy was Chilean. I often confuse those two countries. Never been further south of the US border than Baja (Ensenada), TJ and speak about ten words of Espaniel.

Yeah, Pinochet.

Like I said, I wasn’t paying much attention to politics at the time, I was working on a double major at UC inSane Diego.

Thank You.
