To this subject?
We know the Shrub Administration hates leftist Chavez and will do just about anything to remove him - including an attempted coup. Venezuela is the third largest provider of oil to the US (correct me if I'm wrong) and BushCo just cannot allow some socialist thinking person to have that much control.
I've noticed many posts of late about Chavez/Venezuela and thought I'd try to string some of them together and maybe determine if there is more going on down there in terms of covert operations and political intrigue than is being paid attention to by the Corporate Media.
I don't mean this to be all-inclusive. Just trying to focus my own thoughts.
