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

Yeah, actually, he tried to take power by force twice in the early 1990s before the people stupidly elected him. Try doing some research before shooting your mouth off, dingus.

And he served his time for a coup that was around 2 decades ago now?. Because he did it then, his opposition can do it now too? So the record stands at 50/50 for both sides in the coup business...And again, why should I care?

Don't presume in the field of foreign affairs I am without knowledge or you know more than me.

"Yeah, actually, he tried to take power by force twice in the early 1990s before the people stupidly elected him."

And the US goes in now, to a sovereign country, the voters of which legally elected Chavez (no matter how stupidly), thus interfering in Venezualan law....why, exactly?
