Is Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro too far LEFT?

Update:

i staged this question to see how many libs would say YES. Then i was going to hit them with Chavez's own comments today where he said he's right of Obama on the political scale.

    They're just a little to the right of B.O.

    Communism.

    They're communist governments.

    Honestly, if you want the truth, the whole "left-right" thing doesn't actually apply outside of American governments. According to the American definition of Politics, Communism (and socialism) is to the left and Fascism is apparently to the right, despite their being conflicting political ideas.

    To put it simply, no. It's just a different mode of government, one which would fail in the United States.
