In an Interview with the President of Colombia, Cavuto Resurrects Pat Robertson's Call for Hugo Chavez' Assassination
Friday (September 16, 2005), Neil Cavuto aired an "exclusive" interview with President Alvaro Uribe of Colombia. Soon after the interview began, Cavuto embarrassed us all and asked Uribe if he agreed with Pat Robertson's call for the assassination of President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. Pat Robertson, George Bush, and the other children running this country could learn a thing or two from Uribe's response, which he gave in halting, but clear English.
Cavuto: "Everyone in this country talks a lot about Venezuela. They talk about Hugo Chavez. We had a prominent preacher in this country, Pat Robertson, who had suggested maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea that this guy be assassinated. Now, he retracted those remarks later, but do you think Hugo Chavez would be better dead than alive?"
Uribe: "I am democratic in general, philosophically speaking. I am a Catholic. We need solidarity. We need to create an environment of peace in this world. Therefore, I cannot wish for someone to be killed. Never, the president of my brother country."
Cavuto: "All right, but what he was saying, that if the president of a brother country was maybe indirectly or directly arming the rebels in your country, he's not a friend, he's not a brother."
