Hugo Chavez is a goof ball…

How ‘bout that Hugo Chavez? Somebody needs to remind this guy that Venezuela is still a few pegs down from global super power. Every time I here another quote from this guy I picture him sitting around in his underground lair calling Harry Belafonte “Number Two,” and deciding to go with the old classic of stealing a nuclear warhead and holding the world hostage for ONE BILLION DOLLARS! Chaves wants to end “American imperialism.” The only people who use the phrase “American imperialism” are anti- Americans and people who live in the U.S. who feel guilty for living in the richest country in the world, as if they themselves are causing other countries to live in squalor. If the U.S. were to practice real imperialism, and actually gave our rights and/or protections to other nations, third world countries would be fleeing like a member of Dick Cheney’s hunting party to every U.S. port. Some people confuse the spread of democracy with being imperialistic. They are called Socialist Dictators or Warlords. These are the only people who oppose democracy because in a democracy they would have to earn their political standing. I always want to see the look on some Iranian’s face when he hears Belafonte – sitting in his massive Bel-Air mansion – say that the U.S. is a terror state. That’s an interesting perspective from someone who lives his life in a perpetual day spa. Do you think that real terrorists get pissed off when people call President Bush a terrorist? I would.
