All the Venezuelans I know (and a bunch of the Cubans) are already celebrating

LOL. I've never heard of people killed by Chavez regime. It seems that the propaganda machine works well.
He is not sending in tanks to Tiananmen Square, but the man was no hero. He funded FARC, the terrorist group that has lead to thousands of deaths in its war against Columbia.

You know that the FARC was active, alive and kicking in Colombia decades prior to Chavez. Do you want to make the man who has died guilty of all the dead in the neighbouring country? Do you know something about narcos, paracas and other lovely Colombian gentlemen? Come on, it's not the moment for the "Chavez is Evil" time. Watch Fox News if you want that kind of primary and biased stuff. By the way, I'll never claim that the man was a hero, but certainly he was democratically elected, like it or not. And, as some people is trying to tell you, not all his record is so bad.
FARC has been around since the 1950s. That is common knowledge. Quit talking down to me; I am not another Palin-Beck rightwinger.

If you're not, you really should quit acting like one (and show basic human dignity).

Please stop pretending that most Americans (including Democrats and those who describe themselves as liberal) had a positive view of Chavez. It may or may not be fair, but few people will see this death as a negative thing except for the ~progressive~ types who are over-represented on this forum

Leif is your opinion of Reagan similar to your opinion of Thatcher? I'm just curious; it seems to me that many on the lest tend to group them as twins.
