Chavez is an authentic Axis-of-Evil wannabe. He's got Carlos the Jackal's brother on his payroll, somewhere in his cabinet, and has written letters to the jailed terrorist encouraging him. He's hanging out with those who wish us ill, like Iran. Saudi Arabia laughs at him for his stupidity on oil, and that's kept him away from them. But not their enemies. The main enemy of the Saudi regime of course is alqaida.

Without Venezuela we would be paying much, much more.
