Do you know How Hugo Chavez is? Political thread

Re Cuba, three words: US Economic Embargo

And just a personal opinion (especially regarding foreign policy): Chavez > Doggie Poo > Bush

Even if the embargo is responsible for Cuba's poor economic state (I disagree, but leaving that aside), it is still a totalitarian state with a horrible human rights record.

You must think Bush's foreign policy is pretty bad to be worse than Chavez's, which includes cozying up to dictators from Syria to Iran to North Korea and more...not to mention locally where he is attempting to destablize neighboring countries.  I feel perhaps your opinion on this matter is, shall we say, uninformed, unless you happen to prefer being friends with brutal dictators, Holocaust deniers, mass murderers, etc.
