How you could ever compare Chavez with Bin Ladin, Saddam Husein, and Gaddafi is despicable. Your website is no better than Capital Hill Cubans or Babalu. Chavez was a great man whose policies helped many Venezuelans have a better life. Chavez never killed his opponents or oppressed the people of Venezuela.
REST IN PEASE HUGO!
Curt, Human Rights Watch seems to disagree with you: http://www.hrw.org/news/2013/03/05/venezuela-chavez-s-authoritarian-legacy
Unlike those other blogs, we welcome all respectful commentary on our posts, no matter how misinformed it may be.
Thank you for reading us.
I quite don’t follow you veneration of Human Right Watch. I would say that the misinformed here is you, William. When it comes to clarity I do prefer Babalu. They are far more transparent.
HRW…give a break! Don’t you think that when it comes to human rights under Chavez this report is grossly biased?
What about reducing poverty to a half? Isn’t that respectful of human rights? Please, close that dictionary. This is about making things better overall.
‘Unlike those other blogs, we…’
That is a meaningless difference, William. You are just using other means to enarbolate the same substance.
By the way, Fidel Castro is not corrupt! Where do you get that from? Forbes? Or HRW?

Omar, if you like your political commentary in easily digestible, black v. white/good v. bad, little nuggets of simplemindedness, then by all means stick with Babalu, because I guarantee you this blog will continue to confuse you.
Confuse me? Came on! The confused one is the one who think that this is really that different. It is a matter of substance William. Substance. I wound be very surprised if you are “confused” in this regard. If you were “confused” you are just probably a good boy. If not, this is just more cynism. As if we don’t have already enough.
There are lots of things to change in Cuba for sure. But none of them is the so called “regime”.
In any case, thanks for not blocking my comments.
