It’s unfortunate that Zapatero would allow that Venezuela under the pig Chavez is democratic.
My sense of it is that he was putting a thumb in Chavez's eye for running a totalitarian state. "In a forum where there are democratic governments"—as opposed to your tin-pot dictatorship.
You could be right. I didn’t think of that. I hope it’s what you say and not some phony concession on Zapatero’s part.
