QUOTE President Hugo Chavez reveled in his role as host to Hollywood star Sean Penn as they traveled together through the Venezuelan countryside in an open jeep, stopping to greet adoring crowds. The Oscar-winning actor said little Friday, beyond saying he was working as a freelance journalist, following up on reporting stints in Iraq and Iran. In any case, his star power was clearly eclipsed by the populist president, who took the wheel, honking to the crowds, signing autographs and gathering letters from people asking for help. At one point, Chavez asked Penn to speak to the crowd at an outdoor ceremony. "I came here looking for a great country. I found a great country," the U.S. actor said. "I'm also here as a journalist and so I owe it to that medium to wait until I've digested, fact-checked and finished my journey here" before saying more, Penn said. He thanked Chavez for the visit. Chavez lauded Penn as "a man who is critical of his government and of imperialism." Penn is the latest in a series of U.S. celebrities and public figures to visit with Chavez, including actor Danny Glover, singer Harry Belafonte and Cindy Sheehan, who became a peace activist after her 24-year-old soldier son Casey was killed in Iraq... In bold: 1.) commie 2.) commie 3.) bitch He came to Venezuela to find a great country?!? FUCK YOU PENN. Hey free speech and all, but I have Venezuelan friends that suffered under Chavez's tyranny and fled to the US. I hate these pinko-commie hollywood douchebags that think they understand current affairs. FUCK -------------------- |

You know, what's funny, I work for the company PDVSA. Which, if you know, is owned by the Venezuelan government....Chavez comes to visit....the 5th floor is all bullet-proof. Its the Citgo building in Houston.

So the challenge is to just catch him in the elevator and just before the doors open to the 5th floor, cut the cables and let him drop to his demise.

What's funny is that most South Americans hate Chavez.
When I was down in Peru everyone was bitching about how crazy and bad for the region he is... --------------------  |
