“Pelosi is planning on meeting with this communist soon.”

Since she wore the scarf when meeting with the Muslims, I wonder if she will wear a Che t-shirt to meet with Hugo.

I was a foreign exchange student living in Poland in 1996-97. Got to see first-hand the results of 45 years of Communism in a country. Needless to say, I won’t be supporting the Socialist candidate for President in 08...

If the banks flout the law, he warned, "they should leave."

Out of any large business, banks have the most potential to flee to a safe haven, as their highly liquid assets can be wired anywhere. As one example, A Kuwaiti bank faxed its assets to a safe country during the invasion of Kuwait by Saddam Hussein in 91.

Please do so Huggie Bear. That will only ensure financial collapse in five years.

Hugo “poor” Chavez just can’t help himself

“The curse of oil”.

The sign at the smoking hole that was once the magnificent Sidor factory said, “we are leaving it as we found it, take it, it’s yours.”

[prophetic]

Chavez looked at Mugabe and what Communism did to Zimbabwe and fell in love with it.

Please Hugo, Please nationalize everything. It will speed the day your head ends up on a pike.

Sorry about the starving children but as surely as day follows night...

“we are leaving it as we found it, take it, it’s yours.”
I actually emailed one of the oil companies that got nationalized and recommended stripping the plants and trashing what was left. Got no reply and they ended up signing the “partnership” agreement with hugo. I wasn’t polite in my email. ;)

"That's a GREAT idea, Hugo, especially if it's for the chilrden and minorities! If any conservatives give you a hard time about it, you can borrow THIS to bash their brains in."

And now, Ladies and Gentlemen, may I direct your attention to the land of Venezuela where a growing economic sinkhole has begun to form, swallowing everything as it expands.

Sidor is owned by these Ternium guys and you can leave a message for them. J. Galt of Reardon Steel did.

Hello FRiend! How’s things in Idaho?

Got beer???? =)

Hey there, Clemenza! How’s it going?

We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability. We don't need another $200 billion war to get rid of one, you know, strong-arm dictator. It's a whole lot easier to have some of the covert operatives do the job and then get it over with. ... Pat Robertson.

Chavez’s experiment has already been tried 100 times.

It has totally failed in 100 out of 100 of those experiments while the other option, free-market capitalism, has succeeded in 98 out of 100 tries.

It should be obvious to any semi-intelligent person shouldn’t it?
