Shut Up, Chavez

Hugo Chavez, speaking at the World Festival of Students and Youth had the following to say, "If someday they get the crazy idea of coming to invade us, we'll make them bite the dust defending the freedom of our land." Shut up! I've been to Venezuela before and this just isn't true.

It does show another Bush foreign policy failure, though. When world leaders who should be our friends are standing in front of crowds ranting against us, you gotta wonder what the fuck the administration is thinking. Here is a non Middle East source of oil that we are alienating and oil going for the mid sixties these days.

Also, not looking for a CITGO boycott here in the US, so Chavez, please shut up.

Shit, brother, here's an epiphany: everybody hates us no matter what we do. Including ourselves.

P.S. I'm a Columbus native - Living up by Alum Creek Lake now. Thanks for the info on hogweed - my dumb ass would have just thought that was a remarkably large Queen Anne's Lace. Good to know! ;)
