I have a history here of being against the Chavez government and the Madura regime, but military action, even threatening the possibility, is an awful idea, in my opinion. Should there be regime change, and I hope there is at some point, brought about by a people under siege by their own "government," we should stand ready to immediately offer economic aid, including food and medical supplies desperately needed. We can do that. Anything more would be an incredible mistake.
