The AP is reporting that Caribbean warbler Harry Belafonte and Darling of the Starlings, Cornel West have been sighted in Venezuela flocking together with other birds of a feather.
Harry Belafonte, possibly suffering bird fever, called President Bush, "The greatest terrorist in the world." Just recently, AARP, the American Association of Retired People named Belafonte one of their "2005 Persons of the Year" citing Belafonte's work with UNICEF.
Maybe Belafonte can get AARP an interview with Chavez. I'm sure America's seniors would appreciate that. Apparently, AARP believes a large number of them have been afficinados de socialism since the heady revolutionary days of the 1950's. After the revolution, in the sixties and seventies it was en vogue to demonstrate solidarity by helping in Cuba's sugar cane harvest. Fidel has always been a favorite with the Hollywood crowd. Then came the Daniel Ortega syncophants. Of course, Che Guevara is a classic icon of the left and now that enough years have passed for some historical revisionism, Che's image is being refurbished to portray a more romantic and enlightened progressive rather than the murderous thug of reality.
It's going to be very interesting to see how Hugo Chavez plays out on the world stage. He will be embraced by a diverse rainbow assortment of Amerika-haters. Unfortunately, some of them, such as Iran are dangerous.
Interesting too, will be the parade of assorted leftist "birds" who flock to South America in order show solidarity with the new darlings of socialism.
The left lives for photo-ops with two-bit, left-wing Latin dictators. They decorate their dens with the graphed proofs of the pilgrimages. The days, months and years ahead will be rich for watching synchophant celebs fawn over Chavez and Castro (and if he plays his cards right, Senior Evo Morales.) Can you imagine what it will be like when Castro dies? A veritable bird watchers bonanza.
Health officials are warning about a possible outbreak of bird fever in the United States by summer. Sufferers are said to be "Koo koo for coca puffs."
The CIA and FBI should be very busy organizations about now.

Poor Harry has become the "poster child for Liberal senility", amongst other things.
My father-in-law (GOD rest his soul), was a member of AARP. When I told him about their activities he refused to accept it.
Our old pal Che is studied by American special ops. He was very good at lightening fast harrassing type attacks, making do with little in terms of supplies - and yes, what a butcher he was!
Let's face it: Liberal = Marxist.
Cornel West said on television last night that he was there as a witness to democracy. He also reiterated that Chavez is not a dictator and was elected three times.
Something tells me that West was there to witness socialism.
Yes, I agree - it's socialism.
South America has always been a strange one to me. It's Spain mixed with indigenous peoples, without the settling influence of Europe, such as it is.
Living in Orlando means we live in a very cosmopolitan place. "Hispanics" live everywhere. They're your neighbors, grocer, policeman, teacher, friend, etc.
In my opinion, there seems to be a distinct difference between Mexicans and South Americans. Mexicans are hard working, family oriented people; Brazilians seem to fit this mold also. The "others", though, seem to divorce lots more, have problems keeping a job, and get in trouble with the law more often. I realize I'm speaking from my personal prejudice, but I've never been PC anyway! : )
