This is more like David Alan Grier’s “Comedy You Can Believe In” hour by hour.

But think about it: Sending U.S. troops to work WITH Chavez in putting down a Central American government hostile to the left accomplishes many wonderful things for the U.S.

Improves relations w Castro
Improves relations w Chavez
Improves relations with, well, MOST ALL of the leftists in South America.
Ditto for Europe.
Gives the stupid conservatives in the US and Canada a lot to think about. (Time to start changing your tune, buster, or you’re up against the wall soon.)

Sadly, doesn’t do a thing to soften the onslaught of Jihad, still going strong after 14 centuries.

Won’t impress the Russians or the Chinese, nor India. But what the hell, that’s only about half the world’s population.
