Disgusted with Chavez

Anyone else disgusted by his embrace with Mugabe

Anyone else disgusted to see Chavez - supposedly a progressive force - embracing Mugabe at the UN. Having spoken to Venezuelans involved in the social movements there who spoke highly of the reforms he was putting through, I had a very favorable impression of Chavez.

But what the fuck is he doing hugging Mugabe. Yes Mugabe's denouncing of Blair, Bush and so on can't be disputed but his own form of opression cannot merit him a platform to criticise wars perpetuated by others. Ashamed to have always spoken in support of Chavez........
