From the Miami Herald:
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said his government is working to create a NATO-like South America defense council along with Brazil and other countries…
"I once said that if NATO exists - the North Atlantic Treaty Organization - why couldn't SATO exist? The South Atlantic Treaty Organization," Chavez said. "We've placed it on the table for Latin America once again."
I think the answer to his "why not?" question would be "there is no unifying enemy, like the Soviet Union, to motivate a defense pact." Then again, perhaps Chavez doesn't feel that way. After all, he made these comments in a speech marking the sixth anniversary of his attempted ousting, in a coup some believe was backed by the U.S.

Cesar E. Chavez National Holiday, the organization spearheading the national campaign to establish a national holiday and day of service and learning for farm worker leader Cesar Chavez, invites everyone across the nation to organize and participate in action/events in your city that call for a national holiday for Cesar E. Chavez on his birthday, March 31, 2008.Over 250 organizations, leaders, elected officials, & celebrities; 53 members of Congress; and three Presidential candidates endorse the call for a Cesar Chavez National Holiday. Ten states have established Cesar Chavez Days (Arizona, Texas, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Rhode Island.)Cesar E.

We draw our strength from the very despair in which we have been forced to live. We shall endure.
Today is the birthday of Cesar Chavez (for more background, go here).
Chavez is a man who played a HUGE role in organizing migrant farm workers (mostly in California) in order to have a unified voice against the abusive practices of the farm owners, and served for many years as the President of the United Farm Workers (UFW). Chavez started just like so many others - as a son of farm workers who then became a farm worker himself. He began to get involved in community organizing and quickly saw the need to organize his fellow farm workers.
He also was a man who not only stressed social and economic justice for farm workers, but he also stressed the absolute need for non-violent actions ag
I saw this story on the Drudge Report which basically features Venezualan dictator Chavez saying that relations with the US and Venezuela would worsen should McCain win the presidency. I have to say this should be a ringing endorsement for McCain, Chavez is a socialist dictator who has recently been caught funding rebels and terrorists inside Columbia and other South American countries who want nothing more than to live in a peaceful CAPITALIST democracy. He hates America and he hates freedom, he needs to go, and like I said if you're doing something that he disapproves of then you must be doing something right.That being said I also want to point out that on that Reuters site they call Fidel Castro a "cuban leader" instead of the dictator murderer that he is. I think its terrible to call
Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez said on Monday that $100 was a "just" price for a barrel of oil.Chavez said crude was a non-renewable energy source and it's price should reflect that. "Today the price of oil is at a just level, it is not high," he said on state television.The OPEC nation's leftist government has seen its oil income soar as prices for its crude have surged to around the $100 mark.
There is a bias against Chavez, an unnatural and unhealthy one, that pervades the political discourse in America. Even those who aren’t sympathetic to the man and his movement (if they allow themselves a moment of honesty) must admit that fact. Most of Chavez’ actions since becoming president have been overblown, with the press and legislators more inclined to demonize than to understand.
As for myself, I largely sympathize with his aims, if not always his methods. But the fact is, he too often makes it too easy for those who wish to paint him as a villain. Here is a short list of mis-steps, ones that, in my point of view, left him vulnerable to attacks from detractors without bringing sufficient political gain.

Reported By Stephen Rhodes The chances of Oakland A's third basemen starting in the team's season opener appear remote, at best. At least that's the feeling around the team's clubhouse as of late; the team's trainer, Steve Sayles, wouldn't say whether Chavez would make the team's trip to Japan on March 19, but he told John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle, "It would be more advantageous if he stayed here and got work done."Chavez hasn't done much during spring training, as he hasn't done any running or fielding grounders; he has been limited to throwing lightly and batting practice. As anyone who has had a back procedure knows, the recovery time from back surgery can be painfully slow, and the recent epidural that Chavez received further delayed his recovery timetable. At the present ra
