Constructive gadfly

"No matter what the greatest tyrant in the world, the greatest terrorist in the world, George W. Bush says, we're here to tell you: Not hundreds, not thousands, but millions of the American people ... support your revolution," Belafonte told Chavez during the broadcast.

Does Harry really think he's helping the cause of those who hold Bush in disfavor,wishing him to change policy, with a statement like this? It is one thing to praise Chavez even though many other millions would consider it distasteful since his methods are questionable, but to the irrelevance of criticizing the President of the United States is simply an absurdity of free speech.

I guess it is only fair.  Robertson inserts foot in mouth, so Belafonte feels he has to balance it with his own athelete's tongue!

I'm with you on this one, Steve. Both Belafonte & Robertson are off their respective rockers.

Cheers,

Over the hill artist and over zealous preacher are equally cachophonous.
