Population of Hell increases by one

Slobodan Milosevic, dead.

Future posts in this category I look forward to posting:

Robert Mugabe, dead.
Fidel Castro, dead.
Kim Il Jung, dead.
Hugo Chavez, dead.
Needermeyer, dead.

Yips! from Robbo: Wait, I'm confused. Wasn't Needermeyer fragged by his own troops?

(Don't mind me - I'm still stoked on Holly Tone fumes. If you don't know what's in this stuff, I won't harsh your evening. Suffice to say, it's pretty potent.)

He was acting as his own criminal defense lawyer, so his death has the bonus of being a kind of two-fer.

Pervez Musharrraf

Phew, I assumed you were going to get all up in my face about Hugo Chavez. But, I figured you would like the Needermeyer part.

I think Hugo is a complex case that could go either way, which is why I think our current policies towards Venezuela are a disaster. This would be the same argument I would have made were I alive during the Cuban revoultion. Demonizing accentuates the bad and undermines the good. Of course, some of the good is an anathama to the "turn your back on the poor" attitudes of the hardcore capitalism that is currently gripping our country...

Don't forget, Chavez tried to seize power in a coup a few years ago, then spent some years in prison for it. Shoot, now who else tried a coup that failed, spent time in prison and then wound up ruling his country. . .
