Venezuela's Chavez 'Still' Smells Sulfur After Obama Speech

[Josephus]

Can the entire 25 minute speech be considered a gaffe?

Yeah.  And Gaddafi's entire 2-4 hour speech to the UN can be considered a non-sequitur.

I've got a soft spot for Chavez though.  If we're going to have dictators in the world they should at least have the decency to be a bit loony in their rhetoric.  Hu on the other hand

China is economically bursting at the seams, while Venezuela is falling apart at them.  I think I know who I'd prefer.   

China has like 50 billion people, Venezuela has a couple 100.  I mean it's frakking easy (can you tell I'm getting into BSG) to make China burst at the seams.

[Duque de Bragança]

Who?

Exactly

His people don't but I miss the Turkmenbashi.

Seconded.
