The Venezuelan leader, Hugo Chávez, has not had things all his own way recently, but at least he has famous friends. Falling oil prices and some significant losses in recent elections may have delivered blows to Hugo Chávez's self-styled socialist revolution, but he can still count on the support of Sean Penn.

Sean Penn needs to talk to real Venezuelans who are on the receiving end of Chavez’ policies.

Sean is proof that marijuana enemas can cause brain damage.

So he says that Chavez might not be a good man, but he might be a great one...

Well, taken at face value, that’s probably correct, depending on what you mean by “great”.

It’s a pity Sean Penn can’t keep his politics to himself: I quite enjoy his acting. He was great in “Thin Red Line”.

Thin Red Line was ages ago and he was a lot poorer then.

Million dollar marxists love Communist dictators.

Sean Penn is a very intelligent man. He uses that intelligence to abet thugs who agree with his political philosophy. Penn's dad was an unrepentent commie - a blacklisted Hollywood director. Like father like son.

By denouncing your enemies as stupid, you put yourself, and your cause at great disadvantage.

In other news, Sean Penn thinks that socialists Pol Pot, Hitler and Stalin were warm, cuddly, lovable fuzz balls.

This Commie sympathizer is a prime example of why I haven't set foot in a movie theater in almost 23 years.
