45. Sorry Sang, but that doesn't fly
<snip>"In his declaration dated March 19, the Massachusetts senator accused Chavez of undermining Venezuela's democracy. supporting Colombian rebels and "narco-terrorists" and trying to torpedo a constitutional bid by foes to hold a referendum on his rule.

Condemning Chavez's policies as "detrimental to our interests," Kerry said the United States should lead international pressure to persuade him to allow a recall vote."<snip>

No matter how you try to spin it, it sounds like once again Kerry is bowing to the will of his corporate masters, and is agitating for some sort of coup for a democratically elected, popular South American leader. After all, there is oil at stake here, and heaven forbid if the corporatists can't get their grimy hands on it. Instead of using this situation as club to beat Bush with, Kerry is instead opting for his master's wishes. Care to bet that there is an overthrow of Chavez under a Kerry administration?

Wake up people, this is simply more of the good cop/bad cop routine that the corporate masters of both parties are using in order to get their way. We saw this under Clinton, hopefully we learned our lesson from it.
