Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez has been showered with praise here in comments after he kicked out the Israeli Ambassador. Jordanians were so impressed with his move, that they sent him flowers.

Who else is Chavez looking to expel? U.S. Embassy officials.

Chavez is accusing representatives from the U.S. Embassy in Caracas of meeting with his opposition in Puerto Rico and plotting against him.

The U.S. embassy spokeswoman told the AP that Charge d’Affaires John Caulfield did visit Puerto Rico recently yet did so in order to attend a wedding.

Perhaps some would say that I am revealing dictatorial tendencies when I say that I understand and support Chavez taking a stand in dismissing diplomats from countries that are committing war crimes. Thankfully I don’t run a nation huh?
