45. "I value fletcher's opinion over Ricardo Setti"

Me too.

Ricardo Setti is right-wing moron who writes for a far right magazine. So, although I disagree with naaman a lot, I believe he's more progressive than Setti (any centrist or even a center-right would be more progressive)

My point (not sure if naaman got it) is that a lot of the arguments used to criticize Chávez and chavismo (sanctification, upcoming "bill", uneducated voters) were also used against Lula and the other Latin American progressist presidents. Like "canned arguments".
