Whats up with Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL)?
During this mornings Condi confirmation hearings, He kept talking about the problems in Venezuala, and Chavez. Was rattling his saber a lot. Almost laying the groundwork for the next invasion, or another coup attempt.

Maybe if we quit trying to overthrow Chavez, he'd be a little more cooperative.

1. I think Bill is awesome....
but that is rather interesting he did this action you say. I am so sick of the US invading, changing, overthrowing, dictating, how everyone else should live. Perhaps if I see him again like I did a few months ago, I'll say something...

5. I'll probably see him sometime in the future also
But, this crap is starting to worry me. Especially after I just finishd reading "Confessions of an Economic Hitman" by John Perkins.

In one of the later chapters he said that 9-11 and Sadaam Hussein pretty much saved Chavez, as they were already planning action there, but it was moved to the back burner after 9-11.

2. oil lust is an ugly thing. it's a mistranslation where they
said the love of money is the root of all evil. It was supposed to read "the love of oil" I think.

He just did that cause he knew there'd be a bigger box office than usual.

6. Personally, I think Nelson is a Southern Democrat and probably
appeals to the Nascar Democrats and very little other.
