Venezuela's Chavez Criticizes Award Of Nobel Prize To Obama
Westwood One ^

(Caracas) -- Venezuela's leader is criticizing the award of the Nobel Peace Prize to President Obama. Hugo Chavez said, quote, "for the first time we are witnessing an award with the nominee having done nothing to deserve it." Although in the past, the socialist leader has praised Obama personally, Chavez has also criticized what he has described as the "imperialist" policies of the U.S. In a column, the leader took the Nobel committee to task for overlooking Obama's role in "perpetuating his battalions in Iraq and Afghanistan and his decision to install new military bases in Colombia."

The remarks from Chavez are in contrast with those from his mentor, Cuba's Fidel Castro. Cuba's former leader said the prize was a "positive measure" that implied a critical assessment of what he called the "genocidal" policies of some of those who occupied the White House before Obama.

I like to give Chavez a large dose of imperialism. Like a 300WSM dose.

But, I thought Osama/Oblama and that faggot Chavez were homies?!!

“Hugo Chavez said, quote, “for the first time we are witnessing an award with the nominee having done nothing to deserve it.” ‘

How ironic that the Venezuelan faggot is telling the TRUTH, far more than the liberal, poop-scared, Oblama butt-kissing Quisling Media in THIS COUNTRY.

Interesting. Chavez is critical despite Castro’s warm, Marxist congratulations.

Nah, Chavez is in the running.

After all, he’s a communist dictator - just the type of person that the Nobel committee loves.
