hrm..... there's no drink called 'Viva Venezuela Libre' ... guess I'll have to wait for the Castros

Yes you will.

Btw, relations between the U.S. and Venezuela have been strained under both Obama and President George W. Bush. Upon Obama's election in 2008, Chavez praised it as a "historic" moment and potential turning point in relations. But by March 2009, Chavez called Obama "ignorant." In 2011, Chavez referred to Obama as a "clown" and an "embarrassment."
