Gitmo Problem Solved

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free. Or something like that. The world's favorite Spanish-speaking, long-winded, non-teleprompter using, Socialist dictator Hugo Chavez says he is open to taking the Gitmo prisoners.

What could possibly go wrong? Between making nice with Sean Penn's other pen pal Ahmadinejad, allowing Russian planes and naval ships access to his country, and chasing the devil out of the UN, why should this latest overture be a surprise?
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez says he would be willing to accept prisoners from the Guantanamo Bay detention center, which U.S. President Barack Obama has said he will close, the Venezuelan government said Thursday.
This was reported by Al Jazeera. As for that that long-winded part, it was a 90-minute interview. If Obama went that long without a teleprompter they would have to hook him up to life support. And yes, he went on to meet with the Iranian president.
