Chavez to buy 1 million guns for distribution

While he did go a little overboard with his Bush is worse than Hitler comment, the fact is that Bush was behind the unsucessful coup against him. If Venezuela were to stop selling to the US, gas prices would go way up. See all of those Citgo gas stations? Yeah, there'd be a problem if they stopped selling.

Of course these guns are to protect him from the United States.  They could not possibily be distributed exclusively  to his political supporters to intimdate the opposition.  After all Citizen Hugo is the sole beacon of truth in South America.  Whatever.

Another duplicitous ploy by Chavez in his quest to conslidate absolute power.

Yup. Good to see Chavez is spending his money on alleviating poverty.

Hah, did you have a look at the budget Bush just proposed?

Bush thinks that you fight poverty by fighting poors.
