ANOTHER CASTRO IN THE MAKING. America's preoccupation with the Middle east and Iraq is to the detriment of our own foreign policy in our own hemisphere.

Please. Why stick our noses in someone elses business again. What do we want, more contra affairs? This meddling in other countries business gets tiresome. He isnt killing off dissenters as far as we know,and hes not threatening to invade his neighbors, so why should we worry? The cold war is over.

Another misguided person who thinks socialism will work. However, I say this to our government, "Leave them alone". We have no right to meddle in another countries internal affairs.

lets see if we got involved Nelson would say another blunder by the Bushies, if we stay out another communist dictatorship emerges in another oil rich counrty,the next he will want is nuclear power, hmmmm, nuc power ina country thats rich in oil, hmmmm, wait why do they have so much oil, it is because they are allowed to drill for it, if we could just tap our own reserves oil would not be an issue, as long as there is a supply of oil we will never move to so call alternatives, but nooooo we can't drill here in this country it might uospet a carribou, oh my god, we wouldn't want to do that.
