Shame on you

I’m disappointed in Joe Kennedy (and very irritated with the Globe’s coverage) for accepting free oil from the Venezuelan oil company, and Hugo Chavez indirectly.

The Globe softpedals Chavez’s terrible human rights record (see Human Rights Watch, US State Department, Amnesty International, and International Crisis Group), saying:

Chávez has become infamous for frequent speeches denouncing the United States and President Bush.

This description makes him sound like a wacky uncle, not the despot that he is.
