Bruce, Bruce, Bruce... do you REALLY think you've made a telling argument to the thoughtful people with this juvenile jeer?
Please try to offer an idea I can respect.

So you say, and repeatedly. Perhaps you even believe it. But the laws you believe in were laws carefully crafted to protect and preserve the Marxist tyranny of Sandinista Nicaragua. To be worth obeying, a law must be in the service of the good -- not to aid a tyrant, even an incompetent one. I've told you this at least twice now. You are remarkably resistant to understanding what is good and then going to do it. Well, that isn't me.
Nothing bit us in the ass in helping the Contras into power and the Sandinistas out. Sure, some of the usual antidemocratic pigs made the usual noises, but that's not a wound to us -- on the contrary, it's a sign we're wounding them. Fascisto-communist dickheads can compose speeches too.
Nicaragua has been a prospering, democratic state since the Sandinistas collapsed. With the Sandinistas running things, there wasn't a lot of prosperity to be found. Democracy advances, tyranny falls, collectivism dies, and that's the way I want it. I'm a libertarian. I care not a whit how many slavemongers die in the liberation. It seems to me when they're dead, they can't mount an organized opposition to a better way of life than they ever made.
Chavez will fall -- both because he will drive the Nicaraguan economy into the ground and because of his anti-American stance. He's anti-prosperity -- and we aren't. This is shown by his bottomless appetite for all the power for him, none for anyone else, and this is always a recipe for economic depression. This fall of the man on horseback isn't much of a wound to us, either.
You're quite losing this argument through not being enough of a disciple of liberty, you know.
