Outrage of the Week - from both sides

from my point of view, would be this:

Excerpt: Ken Blackwell, that arbiter of moral politics, admitted yesterday that he owned stock in Diebold, the infamous company that requires no introduction to the Daily Kos Community. And beyond the obvious problems with this--Blackwell oversaw the 2004 presidential election, and has offered a no bid contract to Diebold previously--is the terrible chance that Blackwell may yet get away with this egregious offense by claiming ignorance.

Hrmph.

From the point of view of the powers that be though, I betchya this REALLY pissed them off:

Excerpt:Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez is poised to launch a bid to transform the global politics of oil by seeking a deal with consumer countries which would lock in a price of $50 a barrel.

I bet Cheney needed to be zapped with a defibrillator after he read that.

You go Chavez. You may not be perfect, but at least you're standing up to them.
