A handshake and a grin with a pathetic dictator, a stunningly ignorant defense to the press, an unprecedented photo-op for despot validation. All in a days work for our Fearless Leader. Ignorance and naivete on this new elevated level for our white house brings Hollywood to mind. Remember when the news hit that our beloved Oliver Stone was pow-wowing with Chavez due to his upcoming movie portraying the ”South American Revolution?” No-doubt an apologetic Red slobber-fest. Pathetic, Stone should be barred entry into the U.S. when he goes oversees and pals with dictators (he did the same with Fidel 5 years ago). Then again if was barred access back into America, would we have to do the same for the Obamanation? Clearly progressive pols (Obamanation, Pelosi, etc) and the Hollywood Left (Stone, Penn, etc) suffer from the same mental dysfunction. Oliver Stone’s ”Fidel and Chavez are great guys, I’m a fan” is the equivalent to the Obamanation’s “We can talk and laugh and thanks for the book.”
Yesterday the Chavez government ordered the arrest of opposition leader Manuel Rosales. Rosales ran against Chavez in the 2006 ‘election.’ Remember, the same election that Jimmy Carter showed up at and ‘certified’? Click here. Venezuelan prosecutors ordered Rosales’s arrest after saying he “has shown he isn’t willing to present himself” (in court). Rosales, until recently was mayor of Maracaibo and has been in hiding. Really? This isn’t rocket-science folks. See how things work in Leftist dictatorships? See why it is so disturbing that our intelligensia, academia, and even our own President don’t get it? Maybe they do.

Disturbing, but you are probably right.
The duplicity of the left is never ending. They would have us believe that the US is evil for propping up fascist dictators in South America. Their solution is then to prop up socialist and communist dictators to make up for it.
elm – Our left and dictators like Chavez have a lot in common. I remember reading something by Ayn Rand years back in which she said that when she moved to the US from Russia, she was shocked that many of our intellectuals were very similiar to her home country!
CG – Indeed, duplicity is the MO of the Left…..
Has Oliver Stone ever directed a historical/political movie based on facts? I think too many people have learned their history from movies. Dumb de dumb dumb dumb.
Okra – Propagandist is the word. And he is a communist. We are in for a lot of trouble if folks learn history from goons like Stone…
The prosecution of Scooter Libby Makes me wonder if the waters haven’t been tested already. The soon to be prosecution of some over the “torture” issue,shows another toe dipped. If the people remain silent the left will grow bolder. Political prosecution will become the norm.
"See why it is so disturbing that our intelligensia, academia and even our own President don't get it…"
My own cousin (same age as me – 40 – and a college professor) & I had an email discussion this morning about Tea Parties. He says he has "misunderstood" what the Tea Parties were about…No duh, Genius (though I do love him very much), you only listen to your academic friends & CNN. And when I tell him, he's still thinking I haven't risen up very far from my blue-collar/farmer, Southern-racist roots. Yes, & he thinks I'M the pretender…
As for the President…he's still playing 60's Rock-Star.
cfm990 – Scooter does come to mind for me as well, I wonder how many toes are in the water now? 4,5,6,? More? Will there be a tipping point?
Su – I know exactly what you mean! I have academic friends and relatives as well, they don’t get it at all! The term ‘educated fool’ comes to mind. I definately get the blue-collar southern-racist card thrown at me and I was born and raised in San Diego CA! You’d be surprised that there are considerable midwestern values here.
Conservative: “They would have us believe that the US is evil for propping up fascist dictators in South America. “
Ortega and Castro are not in South America at all. But anyway, the US has a pretty good reputation of opposing fascist dictators.
As for Stone, either he is very stupid, or he has no problems at all with Chavez working to “get rid” of the Jews and his oft-stated goal of destroying the USA.
dmarks – Stone is stupid and a communist and likes Chavez’s government. In one of the links in my piece Stone said that he wanted Chavez to know that there are ”some good Americans” ie. marxists that support him. People need to know the truth about entertainers, Stone is not an exception, he is the rule.
