#1 How do we convince these knuckleheads that Marxism and unfree trade leads to poverty? Their poverty, not US poverty. The US won't even notice this if they were able to institute it.

#2 It's good to have some variety. Now, people only have to pass half of all crap legislation "For The Children". The other half can be passed to prevent "Another Vietnam".

#3 And what's going to happen once Castro dies?

And prosperity comes to Cuba?

Oh, geez, w/all his thugs are we going to have to invade there, too?

#4 ... and Noam Chomsky fought his way through the crowd to firmly attach his lips to Evo's ass.

#5 Ginsberg, Rumsfeld, Gingrich and many otherspoint out that we have done a poor job of selling America in the Arab World. That sentiment goes for South America as well.

#6 How do we convince these knuckleheads that Marxism and unfree trade leads to poverty?

I say let them do whatever they want. It's tiring to hear all these South/Central American Third World cesspools playing the Blame the Yanqui game. If they think their lefty policies are going to save their asses, hey, go ahead and try 'em out. When everything goes all to hell, they can try fixing that THEMSELVES, too.

#7 What is their planned threat, ship us more wetbacks?

Seriously, it does appear that Latin America is on some sort of collision course with the abyss, and this will mean no end of problems for us.

#8 You know, natural gas and oil don't taste very good. Wonder what a total technological boycott of the "SA Four" would do? One of the problems that collectivization caused was a rapid decrease in production, especially in the food sector. If people get hungry enough, they'll start eating leftist leaders. (Wonder if Kimmie is aware of that???)

#9 One word - Asia.
