One cannot expect persons who are literally concerned about having enough to eat to decline the blandishments of Chavez and his ilk.

There is no doubt that all would be better off with the ouster of Chavez, but the administration prefers to play “let’s pretend”. br> — Bruce Karlson br> Navarre, Florida /p> p> ENEMY CENTRAL ETHNIC SLUR? br> Re: Enemy Central’s : /p>Being from New York, I’m certainly no fan of Andrew Cuomo, but what exactly is this supposed to mean?
