This what Rummy said:
“I mean, we’ve got Chavez in Venezuela with a lot of oil money,� Rumsfeld added. “He’s a person who was elected legally � just as Adolf Hitler was elected legally � and then consolidated power and now is, of course, working closely with Fidel Castro and Mr. Morales and others.�
The Becker-Posner blog has an excellent bit on the fallibility of democracies. http://www.becker-posner-blog.com/
So is this a concession by Rummy that the neo-con democracy-spreading foreign policy is idiotic.

Rumsfeld is too easy a target, but then so is Julian Bond.
And by the way, radishes are imminently preferrable to cauliflower. Only a NAZI would try to equate the two!
