The Brainwashed Report to Duty
Frankly, what kind of reporting can one expect from a journalist who can write "democratic leaning strong man" without catching on to the contradiction with that statement:
America’s preferred candidate in the Iraqi national elections last week didn’t do nearly as well as he expected, according to more preliminary results released today. America will not have the pro-western, democratic leaning strong man it wanted here.
It's the flipside of calling the thrice-elected Chavez an autocrat -- it simply means he is not our man.

Chavez puts the lie to neoliberalism and is succeeding at it. That, plus the fact that he sits on a sea of oil, makes him a big fat target.
