On Chavez: Clinton is Bush

Ahhh politics as usual from the front runner of the Democractic party. When Obama said that he would talk with people the current administration does not speak to, or well of, Hilary Clinton went on to say how she wouldn't be talking to people such as Chavez and Castro because she will not be used for propaganda. Commentators said that it showed that Clinton had "experience" and Obama did not. What it really showed was that Clinton is more of the same and Obama is right on this point.

In regrads to Chavez, anyone paying attention knows that Chavez has no love for Bush. Chavez also has no love for (and probably from) rich elites who think Chavez is wasting oil money on the poor rather than the rich as is done here in the US. I would lay a wager that if the next president of the US spoke respectfully to Chavez and treated him like the duly elected head of state that he is, we would not see another "I smell the devil" moment at the U.N. Obama, had he been on his game and about real different politics would have called out the Bush administration for supporting the abortive coup of the duly elected Hugo Chavez and that Hillary Clinton must not be in support of "democracy" if she thinks the same way as Bush in regards to Chavez.

But if anyone is confused about Mrs. Clinton, one should just go read the special report available over at counterpunch that shows exactly why Mrs. Clinton is not the "Democrat" folk think she is. Once you read that report her seemingly contradictory statements make a whole lot of sense.
