Is it fair for the fundie right to go on and on about Chavez when they have their own minidictator Bush in office. With the illegal war in Iraq, patriot act, supression of dissent (scooters big pardon) whats the big difference? There a plenty of little bush worker bees running about deleting questions on Yanswer. Plenty of supressing information like the plane loads of severely wounded troops landing in Germany daily.

When he goes around meddling in our foreign relations with other countries, you bet I care.
You don't really get what shutting down opposition media outlets means, do you? It's censorship.
And I've had plenty of answers reported and deleted, and I'm far from hating Bush. Besided, Y/A is not a media outlet. It's a forum, with Yahoo's own rules. Don't like that? Leave.

The right ... and more specifically the ruling elite ... are having a cow over Chavez. Throughout U.S. foreign policy during the last 3 decades, not only have they fought to discourage notions of "independence" among what they consider to be satellite states of America ... they have taken an active, subversive role in the overthrow of those satellite states that somehow got the wrong idea that they are an independent sovereignty.
You see ... a satellite state is a name for another country that absolutely must submit it's resources, markets and labor toward the fulfillment of U.S. business interest. If it doesn't do this, the country must somehow have gotten the crazy notion that it is independent and can do what it wants ... which it isn't because we won't let it be independent ... not when our corporate raiders can invade it and siphon off the wealth that is rightfully theirs.
Right wing sheep ... read anything by Chomsky if you think you may have an independent brain cell left in your head.

Yes, I care. You mentioned that Chavez is a "democratically elected dictator". The only other "Democratically elected dictator" that immediately comes to mind is Hitler, whose rhetoric has been at least partially adopted by Chavez.
As for your laughable list of alleged offenses by Bush, lol....lol....lol...nuff said..lol...

No.
But you seem to like the little Communist Dictator.
You could move there and see what he's really like.
You might have to get a job.

chavez? i don't give a rip...as you said, we have our own mini-dictatorship to keep us occupied...just another attempt by the drooling right wingers to distract the public from what's going on in our own country...
