What are you talking about? Why do you have to pick fights? Why do you have to denounce your opponents as right-wingers?
Is Chavez above criticism? As I'm sure you know, there are leftists in Venezuela that are critical of Chavez for a number of reasons - does that make them neocons too?
Isn't it awkward walking around with such a huge chip on your shoulder?
