"I thought the topic was simply sympathy of leftwingers for Chavez. " You thought wrong. If you don't believe me, just go back to Harris' original post. "Whether they "love" him or simply are sympathetic cause he hates Bush as much as they do." A truly absurd argument. Just because a comparison is made and Bush comes up short doesn't mean you necessarily sympathize or even approve of the one that comes out on top. For example, if I was being tortured, I 'd rather they knock some teeth out than put out an eye. Now personally, I'd rather not be tortured, much less lose body pieces, but... Regardless, it doesn't mean I am sympathetic to the idea of having some teeth knocked out.

none of those talk about his plan to become dictator. Which, of course, was the issue under discussion. I thought the topic was simply sympathy of leftwingers for Chavez. But you need to keep tightening the subject to win your point. And the reason for the sympathy isn't important. Whether they "love" him or simply are sympathetic cause he hates Bush as much as they do. The issue shouldn't be about what the left thinks of Bush. In fact, every person in this country should hate Bush.......even those who got tax cut money....temporarily......from him. He's done enough damage to this country on so many levels all of us will be paying for it in spades for the next few decades. So why don't you hate him? Because you voted for him twice and you don't want to look stupid? You're not too bright? What is it?
