"My trip is to explain as clearly as I can that our nation is generous and compassionate [if you have something we want] -- that when we see poverty, we care [just, you know, not so much], that when we see illiteracy, we want to do something about it [so you all can read our rules], that when we find there to be a deficiency in health care, we'll help to the extent we can [when we're not pouring all our money and resources into war, which, I guess, is, like, most of the time recently]."
Wow. Didn't think Bush was usually that honest

But their passion would prove to be no match for the passion of the supporters of President Hugo Chávez as he was challenged by Manuel Rosales, governor of the oil-rich Venezuelan state of Zulia. (Rosales was generally referred to simply as "the opposition.") While voting is voluntary in Venezuela, a right guaranteed by the Constitution, all but 1.1 million of 16 million people over the age of 18 are registered to vote. There are 11,000 polling centers around the country, even in local jails. In the end, 70 percent of the population exercised their franchise.
Dictator?
ShinyEd, I question your use of the term.
If you're not a capitalist, or a capitalist puppet, you're a dictator???
Am I getting this wrong?
ChrisisallEdited to add: technically...okay,the term is applicable. It's just when I think dictator, I think Idi Amin, or Saddam.

At the same time, the right-wing National Review published a cover story by Pres. Bush’s top Latin America aide during his first term, Otto Reich, a Cuban-American, on “Latin America’s Terrible Two,” referring to Pres. Chavez and Cuban President Fidel Castro. The magazine’s cover, with a photo of the two men in close conversation, featured a banner reading “The Axis of Evil ...Western Hemisphere Version.”
“
“It’s as if these people have a compulsive need to see Latin American reality only through a Manichean lens, whereby they have to identify an evil force to mobilize against and the complexities of the region get simplified into these dualisms of good and evil,” said Geoffrey Thale of the Washington Office on Latin America, a human rights group.
“We’ve been dealing with Castro as evil incarnate, and we’ve made ourselves a laughing-stock throughout the region and done nothing to effectively encourage democratization and human rights in Cuba,” he added. “If we approach Chavez the same way, we’re likely to have the same results.”

"Sudan President Bashir answers questions via live satellite for the press and Black America.
...Western, so-called “experts” say an estimated 200,000 to even 400,000 people have been killed and 2.5 million driven from their homes in Darfur since 2003. The true number is closer to 9,000, stated Pres. Bashir."

Just enjoying the irony that you ask others to provide unbiased sources for their claims, and then use Final Call as a source for yours.
Sauce for the goose, and all Geezer.

I'm enjoying the irony that you think of yourself as an unbiased, objective observer of events, yet you're really a (pardon me, PN) sheeple, like most.
