That'a what I was thinking. This whole thing would be reduced to one hour if all they did was just ask questions intead of getting "face time" on t.v.!

Who ever said they "do nothing"???

Well, forgive me for misunderstanding YOUR comment:

a blatant refusal to defend and protect our sovereign borders.

Now Dodd is talking about a relationship with Chavez who, besides winning under the most suspicious of circumstances, is attacking personal property ownership, free speech, free press, etc.?

And this is surprising? Dodd and Kerry both LOVED the guy in Nicaragua who headed up the Sandinistas -- I forgot his name but I think he's named for a taco shell. They love Communists in general. We need Dick Nixon on this committee!!

Sorry post #532 isn't very clear. The agreements and state depts refer to South American where Dodd recently travelled and the discussion revolved around our relationship with them. Rice reverted at the end to his bringing up Venezuela and she made it clear that we will not deal with a dictator in the same manner as we deal with a democratically elected leader.

Allen eliciting her expounding on the difference between false propaganda put out by such and Radio Marti where we broadcast the truth in an effort to reach oppressed peoples.

With the goal of undermining the economic prosperity of the American Middle Class

Don't worry, we'll all speak in your defense when they try to have you committed -- not because you are sane, but because we like you.

Allen is pretty decent in most of these hearings. I always forget his name though.
