#6 With all due respect, Mr. Fred, why would we bother? He's just a loudmouth Castro-wannabe, isn't he?

#7 I worry that he's a bit more than that. He has seriously intervened in elections in at least 3 other Latin American countries.

The act that most bothers me is when his interior minister casually admitted a couple years ago that they "lost" 120,000 (or was it 20,000?) blank Venezuelan passports, ready to be filled in.

Given the Islamic terror camps in the lawless area where Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay meet, and given Chavez' cozy relationship with Ahmadinajad, I think it's quite likely some of those "missing" passports are now filled in with the Spanish fake names of people from the Middle East.
