Reply #238: I get more annoyed when they lump Chavez with Castro [View All]

Chavez is not the same as Castro, and he's about as much a dictator as Bush is - a strongarm, but not an absolute ruler, and the reforms he has implemented more than offset his tactics.

I get annoyed with people who claim to be "democrats" but are in favor of "flat taxes" and vouchers and other schemes to scam the poor, and there are even some who defend the Clinton-Bush policies of encouraging businesses to offshore all their labor costs.

It's right-wingers who hate Americans, most lefties care much more about it, and it's people - I can't think of any left-wingers who hate America offhand.

Sure there are some folks that think all accused criminals are innocent - and Nancy Grace thinks they're all guilty. So there are extremes - big deal.
