    I don’t think it would be invective, rant, substantial and repeated exageration or radical departures from the topic above by saying that these remarks made by a U.S. senator are out of order and free speech.

    In what way can Venezuela and Iran could Hurt the U. S. ?, He must be more specific on this subject and bring a complaint to the National Assembly of Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, the minister of foreign relations or to the executive office and explain in which way so both parties can see and investigate these allegations, if there is any.

    These are two free nations that are able to sustain a friendly relation without any imperial controlling force or interference just like the U.S. sustains with any nation without any dissaproval or disagreement from the rest.

    I firmly believe the world has been hurt and hit hard enough throughout history by invasions, bombing, exploitation, poverty, famine, domination, etc, by an empire that never ceases its relentless way of conquering it

    He knows as well as the majority of the people of the United States that countries like Venezuela and Iran are refusing to loose their freedom and must find economic and technological ways to liberate themselves, protect and defend their sovereignity and strategic resources from the threat of dominant and controlling forces of imperialism.

    i agree 100% with mr. Gomez. listening to this senator makes me want to puke. she is a liar and a hypocrite. chavez is the second most popular leader in s. america (behind morales) so how can she imply that venezuela is not a democracy? it was this country that sponsored the 2002 coup, so don’t give me the whole supporting democracy shpeal, i’ve lost my patience for these puppets in washington.
