Its just so simple isn't it?

Socialist leader claims a threat or is harmed- US did it.

Now matter how wonderful a people's champion of the proleteriat Chavez is, he is still a politician. He is trained to use the media and public opinion.

You don't see how he can be doing so? Chavez is attacked, he has already put it in your one way head that GWB puched the button for it. This makes Venezuala an even more hostile place for US interests, putting chavez in a better negociating spot.

I'm not saying its exactly whats happening, but its not a crazy scenerio.
