Hugo Chavez travelled to the Belarus and formed a pact with Belarus dictator Alexander Lukashenko (known as the last dictator in Europe and previous winner of the "Name Sounds Most Like a Tom Clancy Character" Competition) to defeat American imperialism. And while I'm not one to claim we're not imperialistic in this country, this meeting's laughable to me. It's like brussel sprouts met with the rutabega and formed an alliance against the hot dogs. Am I implying we're processed sausage stuffed with remnants of mystery meat, spiced heavily, and prone to giving people heartburn? Yeah, I guess I am.
For more information on Alexander Rutabega...I mean, Lukashenko, you can check out his wikipedia entry. I'd point you to his LiveJournal but it reads the same every day: "Spent the day whipping dissidents. Lots of fun. Hope to do more tomorrow."
