About as strange as claiming that supporting the opposition to Chavez is anti-democracy, when exactly the opposite is true. Now, would you take money from the foreign government or organisation to oppose Clinton, when he was President? Or to oppose Gore during the last presidential elections? Would you?

You don't seem to be a native English speaker so maybe you didn't learn about the Monroe Doctrine while you were in school, nor how it has played out in history.
The US intervenes in political situations in Central and South America when it is in the best interests of the United States.
We supported the Contras against the Marxist Sandinistas, for example.
We supported Pinochet against Marxist Allende.
And if the news reports are correct, we're helping to overthrow the Marxist Chavez. Hooray for us!
It drives the Marxists nuts and they start screaming about "democracy" but they are not really in favor of democracy, they just know they can fool the easily fooled.
