...moderated by Ian Masters as usual..he's the guy on KPFK 90.7fm L.A. ..who is ALWAYS bashing republicans and conservatives..not even in disguise but blatantly showing his dislike of anything towards the RIGHT..; AND he did so again at this forum about venezuela...sneaking in a few jabs here and there..surprisingly he didn't get many laughs or applause from the audience when he did so..maybe the predominantly liberal audiences at the hammer and these forums is starting to see the light; PLUS they were talking about the problems in venezuela..and how socialism is failing for the people there.. two excellent speakers provided information about all the differeent issues and problems for the country...and a little bit about how Columbia fits into the picture.. the professor spoke strongly and knowledgeably about all things venezuela..clearly an expert on the topic; the journalist also very knowledgeable but less scholarly than the professor. It was a good discussion, even if Ian had to insult us conservatives as usual..; albeit at one point he did say something to the effect of maybe the republican conservatives are right about socialism (ie the failure of socialism being that nobody is motivated to strive ahead and do new things, etc)...but made clear he was being a little facetious..; why does he hate all things conservative & capitalistic so much ?
