Bill Richardson Helps Prop Up Hugo Chavez

From those champions of internal understanding at Reuters:

Gov. Richardson meets Chavez over hostages

Sun Apr 27

CARACAS (Reuters) - The governor of New Mexico met on Saturday with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez in an effort to restart talks with neighboring Colombia to secure the release of hostages held by leftist rebels.

Chavez this year helped free six hostages held for years by the Marxist FARC rebels in Colombia’s four-decade old civil war, but talks have sputtered amid continued bickering between Chavez and Colombian President Alvaro Uribe.

“I’ve had a good meeting with President Chavez … (he) has told me that he is willing to help in this situation,” Gov. Bill Richardson told reporters after the meeting…

The leftist Chavez and right-wing Uribe have exchanged bitter accusations throughout the year, even during the hostage release negotiations.

Uribe accuses the self-styled socialist of supporting the FARC rebels, while Chavez says the Colombian leader of advancing Washington’s agenda in the increasingly anti-U.S. Latin American region…

Will no Democrat ever pass up a chance to ingratiate themselves with a communist dictator and undermine our foreign policies?

But maybe Mr. Richardson is just trying to duplicate his wild success with getting the North Koreans to disarm.

Or his attempt at suborning perjury from Monica Lewinsky by offering her a position on his staff at the United Nations. 

(All of this was before Mr. Richardson decided he was the second coming of the Frito Bandito, of course.)

But Mr. Richardson’s treacherous behavior aside, isn’t it nice to see the way our watchdog media refers to Mr. Chavez as a “leftist” and Mr. Uribe as “right-wing”?

Moral equivalence all around.

    It seems the “Frito Bandito” (nice one SG) is in waiting for Jimmuh Carter’s job as designated diplomatic treasonist.

    Is there any Democrat political leader who can resist the chance to assist any foreign leader who is anti American?

    When it comes to dealing with the tensions between Colombia and Venezuela, where do Democrats go to practice their diplomacy? Why don’t they ever travel to Columbia to hear Uribe’s side of the story? I’m thinking that their sympathies are with the little socialist tyrant.

    Richardson has always been a tool for sale and if you see him in an unscripted situation with tough questions, he shows what an idiot he truly is. But he keeps his job with backing from the likes of George Soros and the msm.

    From Cliff Kincaid at Accuracy in Media, “Richardson took $50,000 from Soros and one of his pro-marijuana front groups and successfully pressured the New Mexico state legislature into passing a fraudulent “medical marijuana” bill that offers false hope to sick people.” Soros has already bought many of our politicians and Richardson was happy to add himself to that list.

    What do you expect from a governor whose highest priority was to find an excuse to pardon Billy the Kid?
