Nice, can we FINALLY stop pretending that socialism isn't the path to loss of liberty and suffering. That socialism and liberty have NOTHING to do with each other. That people who talk about helping "the people" are in almost ALL cases simply looking for power. It always starts off as this romantic idea that ends up with people starving. How many times does socialism have to fail on this planet before people learn their lesson?

Bush said the same thing; "You're either with us or with the terrorists."

Yep, not to mention stuff like 'voting for the democrats is comforting al Queda', etc. It's somehow acceptable when a US politician does it but not when a South American leader does.
