propping up hugo

let me just dive right in... 

will no democrat ever pass up a chance to ingratiate themselves with a communist dictator and undermine our foreign policies?  good grief. 

when we are just coming down from the incredibly successful middle east "tour with terrorists," by jimmy carter.  pfft.  now bill richardson, governor of new mexico meets with that sulfur-spewing diablo himself, dictator hugo chavez of venezuela.  check out the full story from reuters:



Sun Apr 27

CARACAS (Reuters) - The governor of New Mexico met on Saturday with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez in an effort to restart talks with neighboring Colombia to secure the release of hostages held by leftist rebels.
 

Chavez this year helped free six hostages held for years by the Marxist FARC rebels in Colombia’s four-decade old civil war, but talks have sputtered amid continued bickering between Chavez and Colombian President Alvaro Uribe.


“I’ve had a good meeting with President Chavez … (he) has told me that he is willing to help in this situation,” Gov. Bill Richardson told reporters after the meeting…


The leftist Chavez and right-wing Uribe
have exchanged bitter accusations throughout the year, even during the hostage release negotiations.


Uribe accuses the self-styled socialist of supporting the FARC rebels, while Chavez says the Colombian leader of advancing Washington’s agenda in the increasingly anti-U.S. Latin American region…

so ok.  maybe gov. richardson is just trying to duplicate his incredible success with getting the North Koreans to disarm.   *cough*  

even putting gov. richardson's dangerous behavior aside, amazing how our watchdog media refers to the dictator chavez as a “leftist” and president uribe as “right-wing”?  *cough, cough*

i gotta get something for that cough!

1 - I guess Bill Richarson is feeling less important now that he is not in the Presidential race. I think he wanted to make some headlines and visiting a sworn enemy of the US seems to be the Democrats' motis operendi these days. (Comment this)
