    Not till millions of people run and become refugees and not till their top leadership gets to almost openly export cocaine.

    If you cause thousands of cackroaches to enter my house and my complaints about it to the community result in nothing then I have the right to personally whoop your behind so much that you have a black eyes for the next several months.
    Your freedoms stop when they interfere with others.

    Grow up. It happens all the time. Obama intervened in Israel against Netanyahu. The Russians did it to the U.S.

    All the United States would have to do is tell the Venezuelans that if they participate in a general uprising against their sham of a government then the U.S. will begin air dropping Whataburgers.

    While Russia appears to have fake elections, I was referring to the fake elections in Venezuela.

    You are apparently quite ignorant of the way the US has done business over several decades.

    What we are seeing in Venezuela over the last few years is exactly in the pattern of US puppet-making actions going back into the last century. Those who ignore the lessons of history are bound to repeat them.

    Millions of people around the world, including this country, are starving. Tell me Mr. Republican, why is that the problem of the US taxpayer?

    Does it help when a country sits atop huge oil reserves?

    Millions of Americans are not starving. If people were dying, the liberal media would run a daily body count and they don't do that.

    The U.S. is involved because we live in a small and interconnected world. We don't need an evil, dangerous, and unstable regime in the Americas. All of Venezuela's neighbors are for change. We should encourage change. That doesn't necessarily mean spending taxpayer's money.

    They were not fake elections in Venezuela, they were real and proper.

    That UN and EU observers failed to show up after being informed and invited demonstrates the fix was in, even at that early date. More, it demonstrates how useless and corrupt the UN has become.

    Evil, dangerous and unstable are words that easily describe the US government, but you would rather not discuss that. Against constitutional governance and willing to nullify the US Constitution also describes the federal government, but keep kidding yourself that it's not. It helps in the denial behavior.

    Supporting their constitutional decision is hardly interference.

    The U.S. has been the strongest voice for democracy and freedom in the world for over 100 years. We've battled Nazism, communism, radical Islam, etc., and have generally succeeded.

    It's not a constitutional decision as you and the propagandists claim. The Venezuelan official at the UN explained why, but no MSM covered it, no surprise.

    That you regurgitate the statements of US propagandists like Trump, Pence, Pompeo and Bolton shows how superficial your understanding of the matter is.

    What have we done in South and Central America for 100 years? http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/51056.htm

    Rather not discuss that?

    In my lifetime, we've isolated Cuba and tried to limit its influence in Latin America. Evil wins when good men do nothing.

    You think Cuba was ever a threat to the US?

    Interesting when self-described Republicans paraphrase MLK, LOL.

    When I was a kid, visiting Cuba under Batista was a cool thing to do. When Castro prevailed, things became better for the Cuban people.

    It is a moral obligation and in our own self-interest to fight the expansion of communism, even if there is no chance of the Cuban military advancing up the Florida peninsula.

    Is it a 'moral obligation' to overthrow legitimate governments around the world?

    Strange morality they hold in Texas.

    Things are great in Cuba ... they're living large on that $200 per capita annual income.

    We overthrew the elected government of Germany in the 1940's.

    I'd work as a mercenary if I was paid in Whataburgers.

    The US supports 73% of the world's dictators and is currently aiding a genocide in Yemen. For decades in the Third World, including Latin America, the US created and maintained a system of terror in order to prevent the subversion of "inadequate and inequitable economic and social structures."
    (Assistant Secretary of State Charles Meyer, 1969).

    Their medical care is excellent and free. Their cost of living is extremely low by US standards.
