Cruising for a bruising

There is no denying that the whole Venezuela/Chavez issue provokes heated debate, but the New Statesman's feedback forums on this topic often end up shamefully unreadable and nauseous. Just cast your eye over the comments following this article.

What do "contributors" achieve by engaging in this sort of mudslinging? And why doesn't the NS vet its forums more effectively? I've never seen it this bad on any other site, even when debating Venezuela.

Lets wait and see what kind of reaction my latest article on Mr. Chavez's hypocritical antagonism towards Colombia receives. I reckon I'm once again cruising for a bruising in the blogosphere.
