Curiousily, I have not heard anything, one way or the other, from the dummycrats relating to Chavez's rant at the UN. Has anyone heard anything. I find their silencing quite telling. |
Yes Nanci Pelosi and Charlie (harlem) Rangel must have some bad "focus group" poll information on the American public's reaction to The Chavez "speech" because they are "acting" with richeous indignation toward Chavez. In other words they are blowing more smoke up our ASS because they fear loosing in Nov. |

Harkin defends Venezuelan President's U-N speech against Bush by Darwin Danielson Iowa Senator Tom Harkin, a democrat, today defended Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's United Nations speech in which Chavez called President George Bush the devil. Harkin said the comments were "incendiary", then went on to say, "Let me put it this way, I can understand the frustration, ah, and the anger of certain people around the world because of George Bush's policies." Harkin continued what has been frequent criticism of the president's foreign policy. Harkin says Bush came to office saying he wanted a new humility in foreign policy in reaching out to other countries, but Harkin says Bush's actual policy has been heavy handed. Harkin says the anger against Bush is generated from the Iraq war, which Harkin says was "unnecessary." Harkin says, "We tend to forget that a few days after 9-1-1 thousands, thousands of Iranians marched in a candlelight procession in Teheran in support of the United States. Every Muslim country was basically on our side. Just think, in five years, President Bush has squandered all that." Harkin says the U.S. has put billions of dollars into the Iraq war, when it could be helping poor countries with things like clean water, medical aid and education. |
A minor miracle, somebody not posting what they read on Drudge. (Check Drudge) Then agian, it does show real loyalty, coming here BEFORE checking out Drudge.

I don't read Drudge unless someone links to something interesting. |
I expect they only did that for the news, that in their hearts they agree with Chavez. I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't call old Hugo and say, "Hugo, old buddy, I'm sorry I gottta do this but I gotta go on TV today and pretend to condemn your speech. Don't listen to or worry about anything I have to say. It's just for the cameras. I really agree with you and I hope you can still see your way clear to funnel that kickback, er, contribution into my re-election fund..............." |
You are probably right. I was merely conveying information. |
