Way, way, way too complicated.....next they'll be saying you support torture. <g>

"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.

OK. Harris's post said a loss for the thread socialists. I found at least one thread poster who is a fan of Chavez and another who thought Chavez was getting a bum rap from the Bush-controlled press (gotta laugh at that one).
