Proably more the south american usage, that he's stubborn, rather than he's a sucker at poker.

Richard Nixon had trouble in Venezuela, but he wasn't a donkey:"While he was in the US Navy in World War II, Nixon won $6000 in his first two months playing poker. He used his winnings to fund his first campaign for congress, which he won. " "A devoted player, Nixon turned down a chance to have dinner with Charles Lindbergh when it conflicted with a regular poker session. Nixon said years later, "Today it seems incredible to me that I passed up an opportunity to have dinner with Charles Lindbergh because of a card game. But in the intense loneliness and boredom of the South Pacific, our poker games were more than idle pastimes, and the etiquette surrounding them was taken very seriously."Day 1, Tape 3 00:37:46 [Frank Gannon] What was your technique?[Richard Nixon] Well, the technique was -- in my case was to play it very close to the vest. I didn't -- I knew when to get out of a pot. I didn't stick around when I didn't have the cards. I didn't bluff very often. I just bluffed enough so that, when I really had the cards, people stayed in. Whenever I bluffed, in other words, I let it be known that I had bluffed and lost so that I could stay in. And, of course, my most vivid experience -- and this is something that I -- I imagine very few people, certainly any of our listeners have -- have probably never had this experience -- I'll never forget. In a stud poker game one night, I drew a hand -- I understand it's -- would be at the odds of six hundred and fifty thousand to one that this could happen. I drew the ace of diamonds down, and then, in order, exact order, came the king of diamonds, the queen of diamonds, the jack of diamonds, the ten of diamonds. A royal flush. Four of them showing. Well, I played it pretty well. There were pairs -- a couple of the other fellows had pairs, and instead of raising, I just sort of checked, you know, or stayed in or called and so forth and so on, till finally there was a pretty fair pot. But at the end -- this was one of those times, you know, when the -- after -- at the end I, of course, placed a big bet, and most everybody checked out. They thought maybe I had it. But this is one of the times you don't have to show it when you're not called. But I had to show it. And I turned over the ace and everybody just -- nobody'd ever seen it before. And they'll never see it again. hahahaha can't you just hear him: "SHIP IT!!"

It's for sure true that the 'Hate Bush' crowd has many interesting members, from genocidical dicatators, to communist puppets to power hungry politicians. Maybe there should be more effort putting the normal people to the frontlines and try to keep the wacos in the back.When Clinton was president and our side was the haters, we tried to keep the Mena Arkansaw people and the like restricted to the internet and the 12 midnight to 5: 00 radio channels. Worked too, we won the next two presidential elections AND got to fill some seats in the Supreme Court with some right minded judges this time.

What kind of racist BS is that? You think just because a hispanic is educated and smart enough to see beyond socialist and communist BS that he must have been born into money? Typical liberal democrat racism. If someone that isn't white doesn't agree with your BS then there must be a reason, because that non-white person couldn't possibly be smart enough to form their own opinion so you must do it for them.

First of all, I don't know what race has a thing to do with any of this. "Hispanic" is a term that people in the united states use to white wash people from south of here, but it' hardly the way people from those regions use to classify race. I went to college with several people from central and south america, from Columbia, from costa rica, from puerto rico, ect. All of them came from wealthy backgrounds, and talking to them about race and racial issues was fascinating. A) Every one of them considered themselves white and B) their attitudes towards the poorer, darker skinned "hispanics" from their country and the rest of central and south america ranged from condescension to open bigotry. I don't know the situation in Venezuela specifically, perhaps Ciderx could shed some light on the issue, however if it's like the countries I am familiar with, it has a rich white ruling class and a impoverished mixed ethnic lower class. (from wikipedia..Some 60% of the estimated 27,483,200 Venezuelans are mestizo (mixed white, African, and Amerindian ancestry); another 29% are white, mostly of Spanish, Italian, German, and Portuguese stock. Other important minority groups include Afro-Venezuelans (8%), who are mostly the descendents of imported slaves, and Asians (2%), who are of predominantly Arab and Chinese descent. ) Now, I would consider my comment to be "typically Marxist" in the fact that I was judging his distain of Hugo Chavez was based on class, as he's immensely popular with the lower classes in Venezuela, but intensely unpopular with the rich elites, and a great deal of Venezuela's wealth comes from oil, but certainly not all of it. Mostly it was a joke. " If someone that isn't white doesn't agree with your BS then there must be a reason, because that non-white person couldn't possibly be smart enough to form their own opinion so you must do it for them."I don't know what this really means, it's a bit of an ambiguous rant. First off, I'm not a socialist or a communist, I'm not a particular supporter of Chavez, so I don't really know what BS the poster should or shouldn't be agreeing with. All I was doing was making an educated guess that he wasn't a poor Venezuelan. Second off, I have no idea if he is white or isn't, I would wager the poster would consider himself white, but you'd have to ask him. Your post is almost frothing at the mouth, shows a deep ignorance of the way people in south america view race, and in general makes very little sense. Try better next time.

When politics force us to pull out of Iraq, we need to send the troops to get Chavez out of whatever hole he'll be hiding in by that time.

Why? What business is it of ours who the freely elected president of another country is? Chavez doesn't support terrorism. In fact, we tried to have him assassinated, and it failed. That's much more of a terroristic act. The only reason I can see for going to war with Chavez is that he's critical of the US Government. For this we should get into another foreign war?

Hey, the troops gotta go somewhere......and by then I am sure Chavez will have done something overt....and when exactly did WE try "to have him assassinated"? Just because Pat Robertson said he should be assassinated doesn't mean WE tried to have him assassinated. ...and just because the honorable Mr Chavez and perhaps Harry Belafonte want to believe that he had "survived hundreds of the empire’s assassination plans.” doesn't mean that it is true. He comes up with a completely unsubstantiated accusation every year or so, never backing it up with ANY facts. Like Castro it is in his best interests to keep a wedge between the World's Superpowers and continue to paint himself to his people not as the regional Dictator he aspires to become, but as some sort of benighted populist anti-imperialist, fighting the good fight for the people, standing up to American oppression in the cross hairs of constant American assassin rifles.Sounds like you've been snacking on his rhetoric of leftist propaganda.Try sticking to the facts next time.

Or if he hasn't done something overt, we can just make something up. posts like this literally sicken me. There is no absolutely no justification for a war against Venezuela. None. None what so ever, other than you don't like him and his politics.

Also, if you think the US had nothing to do with the 2002 coup attempt, provided no illicit support for it, then you're either very naive about US foreign policy, or you are retarded.
