Let stay out of this and let the people of Venezuela bring about the end of this bastard son of Fidel.

That might not be possible. He is arming the thugs and torquing the security apparatus in such a way as to crush his opposition.

Venezuela is just further proof that the US has no "blood for oil" policy. If we truly did, our forces would already be there.

Of course, this isn't pointed out in the press.

He is a prime student of his daddy, Tio Fidel.

We have tolerated Fidel due to the hidden treaties signed after the Cuban Crisis with the USSR.

The USSR is gone. After we take the Chess players off of the Middle East Board, we can take care of Castro. I think that if Castro goes, Chevez will fall very quickly.

Last I looked Chavez wasn't the one carrying out armed coups in the middle of the night.
