Here is the president chumming it up with Hugo Chavez, the socialist leader of Venezuela, a man who called the previous president "the devil". It was Obama who approached Chavez.
Chavez is like that geeky kid who mouths off against the cool kids... until he is accepted by one of them, at which point he comes pathetic and clingy and desperately needs their approval.
The dude was planning to be a dick and grandstand that summit again, but then that news came of the Cuban government possibly willing to put human rights/freedom of speech on the negotiating table with the U.S., and now Chavez comes off as he always has...irrelevant.
This sounds like a bad FAMILY GUY joke, doesn't it?
"Yes, you hold my buddy Cuba in chains and...wait, you guys are making up? Ohhh, thats...awkward. Well umm, err, Hello!"Besides Freddie C., just the other day the French President Sarkozy had a private meeting with his country's oppositional leaders, and it was leaked of how he practically was jealous of Obama's global popularity and was pissy in general that France was sidekick again. Now comes off the jerk?
Not America baby.
Chavez does not deserve to be greeted by the U.S. President, especially with a smile. Obama even said "como estas", the tu form which is only used with friends, with a man who has time and again spoken bad about America and its leaders.
And Obama personally an "Idiot," I seem to recall. I wonder how Venezuela's propaganda media will spin this moment for their fearless leader.
Shit, China badmouths us to their peasant populace all the time, but you ever hear Dubya not shake the hands of China's leadership? I'm not slapping Dubya here on this instance, but just context is usually nice you know?
Nevermind all those supposed pro-American allied states in the Middle East where their state-run media and press issue daily some rather racist/jingoistic anti-American propaganda yet where were you Freddie C.? Teabagging I hope you weren't.
Besides, you right wingers make Chavez a much bigger threat than he really is, which is a glorified Banana Republic dictator that maybe people might pay attention to because he has oil. You know, same asshole who was all pissy not wanting to sell oil to U.S., but when that economic meltdown happened last year, Chavez gladly sold his oil to us.
In short, he's an asshole who's about as threatening to America as the Kansas City Royals are to baseball, and whom Capo will probably defend.
I already know that you Obamamaniacs think its ok to befriend our enemies and will brush this off as no big deal, so spare me your "so what?" responses.
So why?
