CIA Director Leon Panetta's daughter is one of Chavez' "girlfriends."

It's over, folks.

Hugo Chavez = Obamachev hero

The Venezuelans should go ahead and write North Korea to ask for those delicious fresh cut grass recipes.

I thought that was debunked (relationship), but despite that (if not true) a very good post. Thanks MindBender26.

Save your blue dress Obama! So you can prove what he did to you...

Things Venezuela & Zimbabwe have in common:

1. The letter “Z” in their names

2. Everything else

I think we are headed for a war in the future and look who is in charge.

God help us.

obama family friend and mentor William Ayers’ adopted son “Chesa” is also a Chavez admirer-spent time as an intern to Chavez and wrote at least one book about the “successful management style” of Hugo Chavez

fwiw

If Chavez gets away with seizing an American company's assets in Venezuela- where does it stop as the world deteriorates?

CARACAS, March 4 (Reuters) - President Hugo Chavez seized a unit of American food giant Cargill on Wednesday and threatened to take over Venezuela's largest private company, renewing a nationalization drive as the OPEC nation's oil income plunges.

This guy is a moron! Chavez really thinks that nationalizing the food industry will produce more and cheaper rice? Too bad he cannot be held accountable for his blunders as he further destroys the economy of Venezuela.

"If they get funny with us ... we will go for expropriation and pay them with debt bonds," Chavez said during a televised Cabinet meeting.

People better wake up, this is coming and it will not end pretty.

Counting the days till the Venezuelans cry, "Enough!"

[Merlinator]

These private companies should cut their losses and burn their buildings to the ground and let that bastard deal with the smoldering ruins of his country.

[fatrat]

“The anti-U.S. president, who has nationalized swaths of the economy, is popular among the poor for pressuring companies to produce cheap goods and for government programs that provide subsidized food in city slums.”

Shouldn’t this be plural- presidents - to include our alleged president?

[DogBarkTree]

Cargill never met a Lib they didnt like. This move is a direct jab at the Democrats.

Does he even have a daughter? I thought he only has sons.

[Cicero]

Chavez is just helping Barry destroy the dirty capitalists.

[b4its2late]

China will also do this with US companies over there.

[pissant]

Ears is too busy seizing banks and other US entities to notice.

No daughter.

Panetta married Sylvia Marie Varni, who administered his home district offices during his terms in Congress.

Currently, he lives on his family’s twelve acre (49,000 m²) walnut farm in Carmel Valley, California with his wife. They have three grown sons: Christopher, Carmelo, and James, and five grandchildren.

Now if we had an American in the White House, we might make some noise about buying and refining Venezuelan oil. It's a very low grade of sludgy crude and we have the only two nearby refineries in the world dedicated to handling it.

Of course, any refinery in the world could handle it eventually, but it would take at least 60 days to change over to this unique Venezuelan feedstock. Why buy his crap, when the world is awash in much higher grades of crude?

Maybe the Chinese would take it off hi hands and build him a refinery. I hope they like Chinese food.

“...CIA Director Leon Panetta’s daughter is one of Chavez’ “girlfriends....”

Leon Panetta has 3 sons, but no daughter.
