Destroy Capitalism, Save the Planet?

Writing for National Review Online, Jonah Goldberg tears into the Socialist hypocrites ensconced in Copenhagen. He takes particular umbrage with Latin America's numero uno blatherskite, Hugo Chávez.
The big name in the anti-capitalism club was, of course, Hugo Chávez, the Venezuelan national-socialist strongman. In a typical stem-winder, he belched: “Capitalism is a destructive model that is eradicating life, that threatens to put a definitive end to the human species.”

I don’t know how to say “chutzpah” in Spanish, but you’ve got to hand it to the leader of the world’s No. 5 supplier of oil for bemoaning the system that keeps his regime afloat by buying his product.
