"All my life I believed I knew something. But then one strange day came when I realized that I knew nothing, yes, I knew nothing. And so words became void of meaning. I have arrived too late at ultimate uncertainty." - Ezra Pound (1885-1972) American Poet, Critic, Translator

Hugo Chavez as his own personal Doppelgänger
This is awesome. You know, my mother always say that you have to be careful about the things you write because they will haunt you. And now, with this Internet age, if you are a big loud mouth public persona like crazy Hugo, you have to be careful of the things you say on TV, since they will come to haunt you as well.
In this video you can see how the man swears on a speech directed to the Colombian people in Cartagena in 2004, that he doesn´t support the FARC. He also say that he is an honorable man and that if he support them he won´t hide it, and that he won´t ever, ever support the guerrilla against a friend and a neighbor government (referring to Colombia´s government). The next part is Chavez in 2008 making apology for the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) in the sense that they have the right to be a terrorist entity, doesn't matter that they had caused so much pain to the Colombian people. Sigh...
Now we know that once again, the man contradicts himself as he is his own personal Doppelgänger, no evil twin for Hugo but himself.
