Hugo Chavez Urges Obama to Follow the Path of Socialism

Mar 072009

It looks like Obama has given Hugo Chavez a glimmer of HOPE that America may CHANGE and someday follow the path of Socialism. Well Hugo here is the awful truth. Our country just might face a revolution but it won’t be of the Socialist type.

CHAVEZ CALLS ON OBAMA TO FOLLOW PATH OF SOCIALISM

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Friday called upon US President Barack Obama to follow the path to socialism, which he termed as the “only” way out of the global recession. “Come with us, align yourself, come with us on the road to socialism. This is the only path. Imagine a socialist revolution in the United States,” Chavez told a group of workers in the southern Venezuelan state of Bolivar.

The controversial Venezuelan leader, who taunted the United States as a source of capitalistic evil under former president George W Bush, added that the United States needs a leader who can take it to a “higher” destiny and bring it out of “the sad role that it has been given, as a murderous, attacking power that is hated all around the world.”

Chavez said that people are calling Obama a “socialist” for the measures of state intervention he is taking to counter the crisis, so it would not be too far-fetched to suggest that he might join the project of “21st century socialism” that the Venezuelan leader is heading.

“Nothing is impossible. Who would have thought in the 1980s that the Soviet Union would disappear? No one,” he said.

“That murderous, genocidal empire has to end, and some day there has to come a leader … who interprets the best of a people who also include human beings who suffer, endure, weep and laugh,” the outspoken Chavez said.

Hero Throws Shoe At Ahmadinejad

I declare the shoe thrower a natural-born world-shaking Hero!

Shoe reportedly thrown at Iranian president Ahmadinejad

When the Iraqi journalist, Muntazar al-Zaidi, hurled his shoes at the then-US president, George Bush, in December, Iranian officials declared him a hero and hailed his gesture as a mark of Islamic courage.

They were presumably less impressed this week when Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, was similarly targeted during a visit to the north-western city of Urumiye.

Ahmadinejad found the shoe on the other foot as he waved to the crowd from an open-top car on his way to give a speech at a local stadium.

An Iranian website, Urumiye News, reported that a shoe was hurled at the president as his convoy drove through a central square. Security guards waded into the crowds but failed to find the culprit.

A hat was also thrown in Ahmadinejad’s direction before his car sped away.

The event went unreported on mainstream Iranian news outlets but has been hotly discussed on the country’s highly active blogosphere. Some pro-Ahmadinejad bloggers have dismissed the reports as rumours spread by “royalists” and “counter-revolutionaries”.

However, Ahmadinejad has been on the receiving end of flying footwear before. A shoe was thrown at him during a students’ demonstration at Tehran’s Amir Kabir university in December 2006.

Urumiye News said the latest protest came when a disturbance broke out after a vehicle in the presidential convoy struck an elderly man who walked onto the road to try and hand Ahmadinejad a letter. People became angry when the driver failed to stop to attend to the injured man. Eventually an ambulance in the motorcade was forced to take him to hospital after jeering crowds blocked its path.

Ahmadinejad travels frequently to Iran’s provinces in a bid to boost his popularity. He commonly receives large numbers of letters requesting financial assistance and other help during such trips.

After Zaidi’s protest in Baghdad, Iranian officials paid tribute by holding several public shoe-throwing competitions in which contestants threw footwear at caricatures of Bush. Iran’s main shoemaking federation also offered to supply a lifetime of shoes to Zaidi, who remains in a Baghdad jail awaiting trial.

A married couple went to the hospital to have their baby delivered.

Upon their arrival, the doctor said that the hospital was testing an amazing new high-tech machine that would transfer a portion of the mother’s labor pain to the baby’s father. He asked if they were interested, Both said they were very much in favor of it.

The doctor set the pain transfer to 10 percent for starters, explaining that even 10 percent was probably more pain than the father had ever experienced before. But as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine and asked the doctor to go ahead and kick it up a notch.

The doctor then adjusted the machine to 20 percent pain transfer.

The husband was still feeling fine. The doctor then checked the husband’s blood pressure and was amazed at how well he was doing.

At this point they decided to try for 50 percent. The husband continued to feel quite well. Since the pain transfer was obviously helping the wife considerably, the husband encouraged the doctor to transfer ALL the pain to him. The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually no pain, and the husband had experienced none. She and her husband were ecstatic.

When they got home they found the UPS man dead on the porch.

Obama to Beef Up Palestinian Authority Terrorist Army

The Trojan Horse is going to send more of your hard earned money to terrorists all while he’s trying to reduce our military’s medical benefits. What a slap in the face to red blooded Americans and Israel!

Obama to Beef Up PA Army

The Obama administration intends to add as much as $55 million for training of an emerging Palestinian Authority army that trains at an American-built training base in Jordan, Reuters reported. The American strategy has been to strengthen PA forces and prepare them to fight terror and keep the rival Hamas faction at bay. The United States refers to the PA troops as “special forces” and not an army, which is prohibited under the Oslo Accords.

The Hamas militia completely overwhelmed the Fatah militia in Gaza in June, 2007, surprising Americans who already had begun training Fatah forces. United States Middle East envoy George C. Mitchell has asked Lieutenant General Keith Dayton, who has been overseeing the training, to remain at his post for two more years.
