The New York Times article is such a red-herring. Steinem took some money from the government? So what.

The CIA has been financing everything including drug running in Afghanistan. It's about time they used some money for something useful.

As to Chavez, Castro etc. how are they more of a dictator then the guy in the White House today? Talk about ban on the presses, have you read the US papers lately?

It is so hypocritical to criticize Castro, Chavez or any of the South or Central American *elected* representatives when the US has a supreme dictator who is engineering an invasion into Iran to control the world's oil and establish military bases throughout the Mid-east.

Castro and Chavez have the democratic support of their people. Does Bush?
