...

Military vehicles were used as the state oil company seized supply boats and two US-owned gas facilities...

[TaxRelief]

Chavez steals US assets and Obama is too busy throwing parties at the white house and spending our grandchildren's future to do anything to stop this man.

“Today, the private services companies disappear, we don’t need them, the people and workers can do the labor and be more efficient,” Chavez said in reference to the Oklahoma-based Williams Co assets. “We’re going to bury capitalism in Venezuela.”

[huldah1776]

Oh, its not the parties, its because the prez is learning how to take over businesses here, and just added this to his agenda.

[ex91B10]

Cut all trade and bomb into submission.

Williams Cos. is classified as a “Pipelines” industry

[TaxRelief]

What do you mean? Obama can’t do that! Our constitution prevents the seizure of private property without just compensation.

“Today, the private services companies disappear, we don’t need them, the people and workers can do the labor and be more efficient,”

His buddy Castro sure proved that in Cuba, eh?

[sonofagun]

Every third world dictator is watching!

We are now powerless.

I wonder how much campaign money Chavez poured into Obama's campaign.

US firms, Obama lets him get away with it

Obama is watching how Chavez gets away with these kind of things so he can do it to us too. From all indications, Obama will be much worse than Chavez because he's twice as evil.

[sonofagun]

Also, I really have to wonder how closely our military leadership is watching events unfold in the our capitol.

[TaxRelief]

Obama will be ten thousand times worse because ten thousand times the amount to steal.

Chavez Vows To 'Stand By Iran'
After Oil Talks In Tehran, Venezuelan Leader Called 'Brother' By Ahmedinejad

"Chavez pledged that his country would 'stay by Iran at any time and under any condition,' state television reported. Ahmadinejad said he saw in Chavez a kindred spirit." "'We do not have any limitation in cooperation,' Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. 'Iran and Venezuela are next to each other and supporters of each other.

Maybe you missed it. 0bama is doing the same thing here in the US. He just hasn’t had to use troops, yet.

... and dream on.
So sad, too bad.

Today, the private services companies disappear, we don’t need them...

Classic case of sitting on the wrong end of the branch while sawing.

[patton]

“Today, the private auto companies disappear, we don’t need them, the people and workers can do the labor and be more efficient,” Obama said in reference to the Detroit-based Chrysler Co assets. “We’re going to bury capitalism in America.”

[NewHampshireDuo]

From all indications, Obama will be much worse than Chavez because he's twice as evil.

Not to mention the fact that Chavez also seems to have a sense of humor.

[TaxRelief]

Did he actually say “Comrade Obama”? :O

[La Lydia]

Any U.S. company that continues to sell them the supplies and equipment they need should be sanctioned. A naval blockade would sent this communist the right message. How long until Venezuela is as poor and miserable as Cuba? Already, any Venezuelan with good sense, who could manage it, has moved to Miami.

[John123]

the people and workers can do the labor and be more efficient

Oh yeah... this is why collectivist farms worked out really well in former USSR... /sarc
