Outside of the extremely deplorable speech he gave at the United Nations (of which a few cowardly members warmly applauded personal attack after attack against President Bush), what has Hugo Chavez actually done? This hypocritical monster has done little (if anything) for his country, which continues to suffer economically. He then has the gall to march into the U.N. like some conquering hero and calls Bush 'the devil', and then gives the sign of the cross- yet continues his un-Christian-like, vile rant- ending in a comtemptious threat. Like the spoiled, useless brat that he is, Chavez seems to crave attention, even in the worst possible way. His constant ranting and paranoia about how the United States wants him removed from power only reinforces the image of a guy who thinks too highly of himself. (Outside of your country, Hollywood and the leaderships of both Cuba and Iran, no one actually could give a crap about you, Hugo. Get a life for once!) And only a complete, destitute fool of little consequence (much like those who warmly greeted his taunts) would ever come to the conclusion that Chavez is a socialist visionary. If anything, Chavez is a communist thug and murderer who misguidedly thinks he's special.
Update (1): Congratulations, stupid people of Venezuela. You have now given this reprehensible thug the green light to lead as he pleases, and to eradicate any kind of opposition (regardless of how remote the threat may be to him) to his totalitarian dream of absolute power for himself. You have now given up everything, and as of December 2, 2007, you will cease to exist as a democratically-elected country (and elections are going to be a farce- not that they weren't already inside your pathetic nation). But you deserve it. You did this to yourselves- now live with it, morons.
Update (2): Fitman pointed out to me that Chavez lost his referendum election. I'll be the first to admit that I was wrong in castigating the Venezuelans...anyway, maybe there is hope in the world after all! =)
