Hugo Chavez vs. Charles Taylor

[patrick1]

Both filth, Taylor is filthier. 

Chavez is a horrible danger to the econmic well being of his own people, however, I would not support any assassination attempt.  We should really ease up on the throttle when it comes to rigging the affairs of Latin nations for the business interests- we have far larger and more dangerous fish to fry in the Middle East and environs.  The days of orchestrating coups for the United Fruit Company or perhaps this time Esso should be left to the history books.

That old pinko Smedley Butler USMC catalogued some of the stuff he got under his fingernails:
"I spent 33 years and four months in active military service and during that period I spent most of my time as a high class muscle man for Big Business, for Wall Street and the bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I helped make Mexico and especially Tampico safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefit of Wall Street. I helped purify Nicaragua for the International Banking House of Brown Brothers in 1902–1912. I brought light to the Dominican Republic for the American sugar interests in 1916. I helped make Honduras right for the American fruit companies in 1903. In China in 1927 I helped see to it that Standard Oil went on its way unmolested."
