i note that no offer of revolution was extended. with the bush admin and its supporters howling for "no politicization" of this tragedy, here's a great example of where that should and could be practiced. after all, people are dying. poor people are dying, who need the help and couldnt care less where it comes from.
the original poster called for "long memories," i was merely pointing out that hugo chavez, whose death was called for by a major bush supporter (and, strangely, a christian) offered help to these victims not a week afterward. id say that that calls for someone to remember that down the road, as well.
How about the memory of Chavez giving $1,000,000 to al Qaeda after 9/11, and praising bin Laden for his act? Yea, how about that memory?
