Hmmm, I see. I had always thought most Argentinians respected him for being so important in the country's development into a regional power, in spite of his authoritarian tendencies. But yes, I do think it would be weird for Peronists to call the U.S. "fascists" while their hero helped actual fascists.

Ah, well, at least your current President is kinda pretty (for her age) even if she is a Peronist. Dunno about nationalizing pensions, though...

Chavez often doesn't make sense about a lot of stuff. I also still find myself pondering how a leftist finds common cause with the Shi'a clerics of Iran...
