FAUX NEWS ALERT

TALKING HEAD #1: Chavez isn't helping his own people....blah...threat to democracy.

TALKING HEAD #2 (2 clips later): If Chavez would stop building schools to put into the PDVSA (State Oil)....blah...lower prices.

MESSAGE: Taking care of Venezuelans means taking care of America's oil problem.

Do they listen to themselves?

1. A lot like CBS's Cuba story this morning.
American business is salivating over the chance to get into Cuba after Castro's death and sell, sell, sell. (The fact that Cuba is a small island and can only offer limited opportunities is probably beside the point)

...Oh wait. After Castro dies, they're all going to get on boats and rafts to come over here.

:eyes:

No, they don't listen to themselves. If they did, they'd realize they're not making any sense.

3. If by "Small Island" you mean land area the size of Pennsylvania....

2. Listen to themselves? Nah, that would spoil the story.
