(Chavez after a 2 hour meeting with Ahmadinejad - I guess that explains the "God Willing" stuff). Presumably Penn doesn't think only "U.S. imperialist parts of the country" will fall and the others will remain intact, so why is he running amok being interviewed and saying how swell Chavez is and how awesome the Argentinian Constitution is (which he claims to have read 3 times and hearts). I guess it's okay for Americans to support international leaders set on economically collapsing America. Or is it?

Yes, he has some crazy political beliefs, and a lot of what he espouses is just plain wrong. But you have to give credit to a guy who doesn't just piss and moan about the shitty situation down in NOLA, but goes down there, gets a boat, and starts pitching in.
