about chavez,

when God wants to bless you, he sends you enemies....

chavez has a special disliking for the US. Just like the president of iran, he is very vocal of his hatred of the US and Bush in particular.

with his actions of taking control of the oil refineries and closing down stations and stuff, he seems to be saying, "come on, US, try to come down here and take me down if you can."

the US learned a lot from history.

Franklin roosevelt once asked winston churchill what he thinks of ww2, what he will call it.

churchill responded by saying " i would call it the unnecessary war."

"Why?" asked rooselvelt.

"because we saw that hitler was going to be a problem and if we had the courage to take action and took him down early, the world would not have been plunge into a war and 50 million lives should not have been lost".
