"Try the SI search function."

Tough to find something that doesn't exist.

"Also, I'm sure the support of the thread socialists for Hillary's confiscation and govt control of our oil companies"

Hmm. Must have missed those posts.

Steve, you're missing the "nuance."

No one on this thread really supported Chavez, but Bush is so bad he makes Chavez look like a hero, especially to the poor and the uninsured.

Brumar already linked to Tom Riddle's posts on this thread. Speaking of which, from the same site Tom linked to, a left-wing spin on the events which just took place in Venezuela:

You can read it for yourself, if you feel like, but I thought this line was worth quoting:

> These changes hardly amount to the “Chávez dictatorship” conjured up in the mainstream media, and the Venezuelan constitution would remain more democratic in many respects than the U.S. Constitution, a relic of the 18th century.
