Time to blow-up Hugo; blow him up real good.

President Hugo Chávez yesterday hinted that Venezuela could try to become a nuclear power, during a visit to Russia apparently timed to antagonise the White House. Mr Chávez defended Iran's right to pursue a nuclear programme and said it might be a good idea if Venezuela eventually did the same thing. Speaking before an audience of communists and other elements hostile to America, Mr Chávez said: "Iran has a right to have a peaceful atomic energy industry, as it is a sovereign country.
"The Brazilian president has declared his atomic energy initiatives, and Brazil has a right to do that as well. Who knows, maybe Venezuela will ultimately follow suit." Mr Chávez said he wanted a "multi-polar world in which "real freedom" was possible as opposed to "American freedom", which he characterised as the right to "threaten other nations and destroy cities". The Venezuelan leader is on a trip that also includes two other US antagonists, Belarus and Iran. His visit to Moscow comes hours before a meeting in the US between Vladimir Putin and George Bush. The two are holding informal talks on Sunday and Monday at the Bush family estate in Kennebunkport, Maine, with deep divisions over the US's proposed missile shield in central Europe, the future of Kosovo and US concerns over Russia's resurgent authoritarianism under Mr Putin.
Kremlin officials yesterday said it was a coincidence that Mr Putin was holding talks with Mr Chávez tomorrow and Mr Bush on Sunday.

"The timing wasn't initiated by Russia," said Viktor Semyonov, an economist at Moscow's Institute of Latin American Studies. "It all comes from Chávez.
"It's more about money than politics; Chávez is supporting Russia's rapidly increasing economic presence in Venezuela."

Another Mother Sheehan/Michael Moore success story!
I second his hint of a nuclear future for himself.
The US has never said that Iran can not have a civilian nuclear program....unfortunately. The back channels are formulating how those uranium shipments will be made. Keep repeating Baker/Hamilton/Baker/Hamilton...
We should polish off his Migs the day they are delivered.
Just let him know that we won’t tolerate another pisspot dictator.
Kill Chavez now!
Send a cruise missile to his house...
A see a nuclear future for Venezuela too - but the way Chavez does.
Like giving a monkey a loaded gun.
This guy needs to be taught a lesson.

If we had a real CIA this guy would be dead about two years now.
Time to blow-up Hugo; blow him up real good.
You gotta wonder what the other nations of South America would like best about 'ole Hugo with nukes......
I also fear it no longer exists... just little leftists like plame, pushing their orders given long ago by ‘toon!

It certainly needs a strong President to restructure it.
My first move would be to locate and destroy. Yes: destroy any individual guilty of any leak no matter how small.My next move would be to remove ewith predjudice any person not loyal to the immedoate President of the United States.
I would then head to the State Department and do the same thing. Even people who believe their feet are in concrete can be moved, it just takes a little more digging.
We think alike! Right on!

Yet another in a long list of reasons why we...or at least *somebody*...should move,*forcefully*,against the 9th Century knuckledraggers in Tehran.
Monkeys everywhere are offended. and cavemen too.
I can think off-hand and mention a few names on my hit list. Al Sadr , Chavez, Ahmadinejhad, Khomeni, Kim Il Jung, Just a few crazies the world could do well without.
Don’t forget the Syrian dentist!
