6. I'd also like to extradict Rumsfeld to Germany
Where he's wanted on war crimes charges.

3. I thought his idea to open a chain of cheap gas stations here was great-
and if he opened enough of them, it could be far more productive then taking Robertson to court since he's already the laughing stock of the country. But putting a dent in our mid-east oil consumption would be far more productive and a better way to get back at them. (and we could show our support of him by buying his gas!).

5. I don't really think he's going to do that
It was a nice speach but even the poor in the US are fairly rich compared to the poor in Venezuela, he needs every dime he can get.

8. but wouldn't the U.S. do the same?
If some one with power said that it was better to have Bush killed then waste money on another war? The Bush Thugs would be calling it a terrorist act.

10. I think it was more of a point he was making
that oil is so cheap in Venezuela that the rich fat cats are making all the propped up profit whereas the actual production costs are quite low and could supply our country at favorable prices...

7. I have been hanging around most of the afternoon .......
and evening, have not seen this great news. I hope they do try to extradite the Right Wing Fascist Dictator to stand trial. I think his sentence should be to wash the feet of the dirty and homeless and feed them with his own money for.....oh, about.....how about until he dies a natural death? BTW, let's start calling them "Right Wing Extremists", just like they claim anyone who is opposed to the war is an "extremist".

12. Go Hugo! Show Bush how to fight religious extremeist terrorist with
political agenda's. Our biggest problem with this is that most of them are Bush's friends or "the core of the Republican Party." Like Usama bin Laden, Pat Robertson, and Randal Terry
