Wow. Ain't socialism grand? :-)

I'm sure his supporters are quickly approaching their "D'oh!" moment.

Only a fool could not see where this is headed.

Within 5 years the world will be questioning why America is not intervening on behalf of the people who put him in power.

Dictators always take control by claiming to be for the oppressed, only to turn around and become the oppressor on a far more destructive scale.

A socialist is someone who has nothing, and wants to share it with everybody.

So, let me see if I understand communism. If you have two houses, you will give me one?

Yes.

And if you have two cars, you will give me one of them?

That's correct.

And if you have two suits, you will give me the extra one?

No.

Why not?

I have two suits

I first heard this in the early 1950s and it is at least 30 years older than that. This is an example of what happens when history is not taught.

Chubby is beginning to act more and more like Jim Jones everyday.

Pretty soon he’ll start demanding people worship little plastic icons of himself.

But since coming to power in 1999, Chavez has proposed increasingly radical steps to drive Venezuela toward a socialist state and, after a landslide reelection late last year, he declared himself for the first time a communist.

I took him eight years. Hillary could do it too.

The missing ingredient is a militant underclass willing to take to the streets to support their leader.

An underclass that is poor and ignorant.

“Whoever has a fridge they do not need, put it out in the village square. Whoever has a truck, a fan or a cooker they do not need, give something away. Let’s not be selfish. I demand you do it,”

-Chavez (2007)

“From this day on, the official language of San Marcos will be Swedish. Silence! In addition to that, all citizens will be required to change their underwear every half-hour. Underwear will be worn on the outside so we can check. Furthermore, all children under 16 years old are now... 16 years old! “

-Bananas (1971)

"I only want to be accompanied by true socialists," he said.

He is going to be marching alone soon enough.

I demand you do it,” Chavez said
