Rubbish. That clown does nothing to provide food and shelter to his own people. Venezuela should be enjoying the oil revenues created by the boom in oil. Instead, the economy is languishing with that dictator in charge.

Not only has he improved the lot of the poor in his own country, both in terms of food and shelter and education, he has also improved the lives of the poor in other countries as well. Including america.
Your knowledge on the subject is lacking.

Really? "...arrangements outside the status quo"? Stealing the wealth of his own nation and screaming and shrieking about evil capitalists have been around a long time. There is nothing new here.

The bilateral trade agreements that involve services and goods as opposed to just hard cash is unique. I.e., trading oil for doctors and pharmeceuticals. I think its brilliant. Stealing the wealth of his own nation... gimme a break. Just look at the improvement he has made infant death rates, literacy rates, and converting the land he took from the rich into community farms and distribution networks.
Come on Tim, your irrational hatred is glaring.

If a self-destructive clown making a fool of himself in front of the world is amusing, then I suppose it is. Of course, for the people of Venezuela it isn't funny at all....

Actually he talks like he does simply for the domestic benefit. His supporters love it. But yeah, i would agree that on the world stage he could stand to choose his words more carefully. But in the end i do find it amusing.. why wouldn't I, its relatively harmless.
