CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- President Hugo Chavez returned to his weekly radio and TV broadcast Sunday, extolling the ideals of socialist thinker Karl Marx and telling U.S. officials to "Go to hell!" for what he called unacceptable meddling in Venezuela's affairs.
Chavez defended his government's effort to establish a socialist model and rejected U.S. concerns over a measure to grant him broad lawmaking powers, saying: "Go to hell, gringos! Go home!" |

| Given he supplies a significant percentage of America's oil and has sway over a large number of other central and south american leaders who also have their finger on the "nationalization" button, I would say Uncle Horton Sam should hear the hoo. We Canadians got lots of oil sands for ya. Come on up, America. Develop away. Make us all stinkin' rich. |

If the people of Venezuela want to waste their oil income on food subsidies and whatever else, rather than use the money to build schools, infrastructure and hospitals, that is their business. Let them worry about what to do when the oil money runs out.
It does serve as a reminder that we need an ambitious energy independence program. Just one more ball Bush dropped in '01. |
