“We have common challenges and our arms are open.”

Translation: we’ve bent over, and our pants are down. What are you waiting for?

This guy is an former Kennedy Senate staffer. The sinister influence continues from beyond the grave.

If it hadn’t been Larry Sinclair then it would have been Hugo Chavez.

El Presidente Obama es un tonto! At least that's the way Hugo might be calling him a fool, that must make him laugh hard and often.

This is a combination of LOL and Barf Alert!

Honestly, even the Brazilians, with their beloved leftist Lula, can’t work with him. Is Bambi even more leftwing than Lula?

Well, maybe it’s best not to answer that. But how can two such egos - Bambi’s and Hugo’s - coexist in the same space?

Seriously, I think Obama sees himself being the leader of a Third World coalition, with Hugo and Ahmadinejad (who is a bosom buddy of Hugo’s) being part of his triumvirate. A difficulty might arise over which enormous ego is going to be head of the triumvirate, whowever.

We should invade to save those who didn’t “vote” for that ass. A midnight commando raid on his palace with Navy Seals, a few slashed throats later...tearing Chavez from his inflatable “Obama” blow up doll might be difficult. Dumping his carcass in an active volcano would be the fun part.
