Torture & Death Squad Czar Negroponte on Venezuela "threat"...
What a gasbag! He told US Senators that Chavez was buying aircraft and patrol boats, so Venezuela is a threat to the region, and to the US.

WTF right does the US have to say that Venezuela shouldn't have military aircraft or patrol boats?

This guy should have been locked up (at the very least) for war crimes a long time ago, and here he is sitting in our Senate chamber, pontificating about which countries should be allowed to aquire military hardware.

Gasbag senators on both sides of the aisle seemed to be eating it up too!

oh it gets better, apparently Chavez is a threat to the Gulf region and maybe there is a possibility of AlQaeda 'infiltrating' south america.

Bill Nelson need to go!

How much of this bull will America put up with???

10. I figured he was pandering to the Cubans in Florida...
I don't really know much about the guy or his politics though.

6. I was sad to see them dredge this disgusting POS back up
He is a was a blot on America's reputation, now he is just a reminder of what we are. We are what we were taught to hate when I was a child, the exact thing we were told was the enemy with a capital E. This has been a shattering experience for many of my generation, at least those of us who choose to actually look at the evidence. There are many who are in denial and refuse to accept what is plainly apparent.

We have our very own KGB now & Negroponte of death squad fame in charge, OMG! They are so scared of Chavez because he has ben nationalizing businesses, the ultimate sin.

11. If government had only done the right thing to the Iran-Contra criminals
think of all the people who wouldn't be around today in this administration to further committ crimes -

If those people had only gone to jail for their crimes...if government had the courage then to jail a corrupt President and Vice-President and all the other people involved...

but government didn't have the courage...and Americans will continue to pay for the government's lack of courage(and other things)...unless, for a change, a corrupt administration is held accountable for their crimes.

We'll get another Bush-like administration unless this Bush is truly held accountable.

America will survive sending a President and his cabinet to prison. In fact, she'd be the better for it.

Politicians who really wanna send a message that the people are tired of corruption in government? Then send the Bush Regime to prison. Forget flowery speeches about the rule of law and how no one is above the law - send the fucker to prison. Otherwise, he IS above the law.

Afterall,the very fact that Negroponte is a free man who is in the position to brief Congress and testify to Congress is PROOF that Negroponte IS above the law.
