When you see how far people go to accuse Bush and his administration of being dictators... it isnt surprising that Chavez who by all means have a lot ore personal power than Bush has is seen by many as a dictator.

I find it surprising when people call Bush a dictator, as that statement is both false and stupid. Even so, the name-calling in regard to Chavez is different. The mass-media often/typically refers to Chavez as a dictator, but I don't know of any journalists that refer to Bush as a dictator rather than President. (I'm sure there's at least one Olberman-style hack out there who does, but my point should be clear).
Since there is so much misinformation out there about Chavez, I think it is important to call out those who seek to blatantly spread propaganda against him and the government of Venezuela.
