Venezuela

Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez has been heavily criticized by the US. Then he offers reduced oil prices to poor Americans, eye care to those who cannot afford it in American, and after Katrina he was the FIRST (and so far the only I've heard about) to offer aid. Food, manpower, water, and fuel, he offered this to us to help the victims of the hurricane. We offer BILLIONS in aid to most of the world, and when American needs a hand the first to step up is someone who has been badmouthed and even threatened by our country. I don't really know, or care, what our administration has against this man, but I have to say he's a stand up guy.
