What's your impression of Harry Belafonte?
Advertisements [?]
I generally agree with him on most issues, and I criticize our administration just as much as anybody, however, I feel a little uneasy at an American going to another country and criticizing an administration like that. Any administration. It just doesn't sit well with me. It's one thing to lead a rally here in the U.S. or to attend something like the WTO in another country, but it bothered me that he went to Venezuela and did what he did. Even though I agree with him that Bush is terrible and all, something in me wishes he kept it in house. It's not like I have a big problem with it, I just wish he stayed here to do it, instead of stoking up any anti-Americanism in another country, even if it is mainly anti-Bush sentiment.
