10. I'm a Leftie. Let's just say I have 'instincts'. Some questions are not really questions, they are

designed to elicit certain responses. Eg, you oppose the War in Iraq, you 'love Saddam'. You support Chavez, 'you're a commie'.

This Group is getting a lot of attention lately.

I will answer honest questions, but not 'trick questions'. Lol!

Our FP right now is based on neocon/Globalist world dominance. Unfortunately some Dems are falling for the propaganda they rightly rejecrted when Bush was in the WH.

Let's just say I recognize an attempt at a set up when I see it.

Smearing this group is a primary goal of a few people here.

What I support is all nations being left to figure out their own problems.

But our policies target oil rich countries and prefer dictators over democratically elected leaders. See our South American policies under Nixon/Kissinger/Reagan eg.

Chavez freed his country from the control of Global Oil Cartles. That has never been acceptable to the Far Right.

The question in the OP imo, was designed to get the 'lefties' to respond in a way that they could be characterized as supporting the enemy.

If I'm wrong, the OP can tell us where he stands on Maduro.
