    @Walter Map

    Could you post in Latin from now on, sir?

    Your guy won, so why are you so vicious?

    It's not nice, Walter, to keep calling Juan Enrique a "wing nut." Why not just respond to the many valid points Juan Enrique is making? Why be such a smug snotnose? My best friend in grade school had a very nasty golden cocker spaniel who always growled like you do?

    Instead, why don't you fly down to Argentina and Venezuela to see how your socialist dreams come true. Maybe Ayers can bring you along on his next trip.

    Do you think that Chavez and his new buddy, and and arms supplier, Putin, are licking their chops, getting ready for a naive (at best) Obama Administration? Don't you think they're getting ready to run circles around them, sir? Do you think Obama should resuscitate Madeline Allright and send her down to Caracas to tango with Hugo?

    And, Mister Map, how about Bernadette Dhorn for Secretary of State instead of Hillary, sir?
