What a surprise -- Bill Clinton kissed the ugly butt of Hugo Chavez and protected him, yet Chavez did not turn out to be quite the humane suck-up that our naive socialists in the Dept. of State expected....

This is part of the thing that makes Chavez’s statements about “The US wants to kill me” so bizarre, if we had wanted Mr. Chavez “dead” he would have been killed during the failed counter coup attempt...

Of course the US (Clinton) kissed his butt.

It’s about Hemispheric integration. The Term “democractic” is very different to the State Department than Caracas. The US was on the verge of a FTA and then Chavez pissed on it. Oh that didn’t make Washington very happy. Never make Washington angry.

State Department officials initially appeared dazzled by Chavez's oversized persona and his promise for sweeping reforms,

The State Dept. is so inept it is still dazzled by Mugabe.

So now we know. Carter did it for the Iranian mullahs and Clinton did it for Chavez.
