No kidding. First, there is nothing new or interesting about  
Venezuela and Cuba working together - that's well know and in the  
open, AFAIK. There is something newsworthy about USAID pushing for  
regime change in a democratically elected nation - is that really  
what USAID is publicly about? Or does this just expose them as  
another CIA front? That's interesting.

If the article neglected to mention, for instance, that Venezuela was  
found to be secretly bankrolling MoveOn, well then you'd have a  
relevant detail omitted.

Also, doesn't Venezuela mainly provide aid to Cuba and not the other  
way around?
