Chavez speech: the pot calling the kettle black

BREITBART.COM - Chavez extends anti-Bush tirade on visit to Harlem:
"Chavez emphasized that there was a clear difference between the US government and the American people. 'One thing is imperialism and another thing is the people, the American society,' he said."

It is remarkable that, among all his other criticisms of America and its policies, Chavez objects to our "imperialism." The man boasts that not only is Simon Bolivar his hero, but his role model, that he intends to fulfill the dream Bolivar was unable to realize - the conquest of all the Latin American republics and their union in a single dictatorship.

At least he didn't bang his shoe on the podium.

No, but the spectacle of a Bolshevik folding his hands in prayer and gazing at the cieling is a lot less honest than Khrushchev's shoe pounding rant.

Just this, Ed. I think it's easier to win a debate with a vicious thug who conveys the message "I am a vicious thug and you should be afraid of me" than for a vicious thug who conveys the image "I am an innocent choirboy and I need your protection from the big bad man in the big white house."
