Thank you, good post. There's no doubt that Chavez is a Communist tyrant, although fortunately he seems to be a singularly stupid and erratic one. But one shouldn't take too much comfort from that, since many of the worst tyrants in history have been weak, fearful, and stupid. If there's any way for the CIA to help Venezuelans to oust him, I hope they will do it.

On the other hand, Lula of Brazil is said to have split with Castro. I don't know if that's true or not. In any case, it's clear that Chavez must go.
