People that invoke Godwins law are doomed to repeat history. Because they haven't learned. ;-)
Chavez does bear a striking resemblance to herr schikelgruber. However, I doubt he'll ever be as ruthless, efficient or calculating as that paper hanging sonofabitch was. He'll me more of a Mussolini if anything. Drag his country down and then, hopefully, end up strung up dead from a lamp post.
Wait for the war between Venezuela and some neighboring country in the hopes of getting the US involved. Hmm, Does Venezuela share a border with Belieze? Maybe we could get to watch the Brits beat the snot out of another Latin American Country that forgot who was who in the world. *check's map* Not even close. OOh, perhaps they'll pick on Brazil and Portugal will get involved. Though, I doubt Brazil will need even that much help defeating Venezuela.
Also, interesting thing about Chavez is that he was involved in a Military Coup against the Democratic government in 1992. He served jail time for that. Now, he names his political opponents coup plotters. Seems vaguely Hitleresque to me. Especially his increasing control of private corporations. Seems rather fascist to me (now, if he nationalizes a bunch of private firms, then he's more communist...).
So many people who choose to invoke Godwin's law just don't understand what it Hitler really was and what he did.
