Liberals always stoop to name calling when they get frustrated... I am sorry you like to single me out Diana, but I just gave you what you couldn't find or needed me to provide... It was so obvious it was a post on Wiki, with the footnote tabs, I didn't dream you couldn't see it wasn't my personal information ... so, you're welcome. :rolleyes:

Frustrated? No. And of course it was easy to see that it was NOT your writing and VERY easy to trace the source. A simple google of the first line led to Wikipedia.

It is a matter of honesty, and especially important for someone who thinks of one's self as a "researcher" of any type. IF one quotes the work of others, they reference it or it becomes plagiarism.

This is not a liberal or a conservative idea, nor is it a liberal or conservative idea that Wikipedia is a starting point and needs to be crossed referenced and fact checked in many ways.

Yes, and to me proving Chavez is a dictator or that Citgo (not Valero) is a Venezuelan owned company is just NOT THAT IMPORTANT to me to put any effort more than I did... This is a discussion forum not a reference book... As you can see, I am more than happy to provide my sources and never make something look like it is my writing, if it isn't.

Yes, and to me proving Chavez is a dictator


There you go again...trying to sound like Hannity.....claiming something as fact which in reality is a flat our lie....Chavez was not a dictator. He was elected by the people of his country.

I liked it when Chavez called George W. ''the devil'' at the UN in '06. That's GW. I could have a drink with either of them, though.

Yah, I am guilty of spreading information... my bad. Too much information would have caused us to have a good president now, and no sequestration BS. The Low Information voters won, and America lost.

Thanks for your political opinion. Take it off-topic.

This thread is about Hugo Chavez.

Rmoney sure spread lots of useful information in his attempt to woo voters! His key talking points were "I won't tell you my policy ideas until after you elect me," and "47% of Americans are worthless moochers that I don't care about." Great info! Sure made the choice easy!
:lol::lol:

Contrast Rmoney with Chavez, Chavez rattled off information and ideas non-stop, in endless speeches, and he never called the poor worthless moochers. Seems like Chavez had a bit more personality and charisma than Rmoney.

Chavez certainly had populist appeal, perhaps GOP could take some lessons from Chavez, eh?

p.s. I did not agree with Chavez, but I certainly understood his appeal to his majority

Wow, thank you. I was totally not aware of that------I always thought that something posted on a public forum was fare game to post elsewhere on a public forum------never knew about having to declare your source. Thank you.

David,
Your posts here are so offensive and here is why. I can't respond to them because this is not OFF-TOPIC and you think you are too good for OFF-TOPIC. You are like your mentor Hannity when he cuts the mic off an an informed caller who calls him out on his BS. If you are going to tell me that my political beliefs are ruining America go OFF-TOPIC. And speaking of name calling, you just called me a "LOW Information Voter". Again I would love to prove otherwise but you won't let anyone. Kinda like a dictator.

I will go along with this,, Chavez was vary popular in his country, I wonder why,, the poor have been abused and miss treated for years at the hands of the wealthy,
and no I didnt really like some of his antics, I thought that was a bit off the wall, but bottom line it worked for him

it's just a challenge to even comment on this at this point...please, y'all, try not to go to the dark place...there is such a defined, stark, black/white difference between us all that there will never be piece...or peace...i, on one hand, hate your philosophy on life, dk, but on the other hand, i hate what you stand for also....so...liberal or conservative, saviour or buttcrack, we can all get along, can't we?
