Obama’s New Friend, Hugo Chavez
Great! It’s just wonderful (just kidding of course) to see our president buddying up to Chavez… What can he get from this? Nothing. What can Chavez get from this? Legitimacy. Obama is just not thinking at all!
PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad – Presidents Barack Obama and Hugo Chavez have met for the first time, shaking hands as the Summit of the Americas gets under way in Trinidad and Tobago.
Photos released by the Venezuelan government show the two smiling and Obama touching Chavez on the shoulder.
The Venezuelan presidency says Obama initiated the handshake. It quotes Chavez as telling Obama he hopes for better relations between their nations.
Chavez also reportedly said Friday: “With this same hand I greeted Bush eight years ago. I want to be your friend.”
As recently as last week, Chavez expressed a desire to “reset” relations with Washington.
And somehow Obama and his group think I’m the threat to the U.S.A. and yet he want’s to buddy up with Chavez??? Am I missing something here?
Just shows you…. buddying up to a socialist is what Obama plans for the United States… socialism.
He’s naive and ill advised. I hope he’s out in 2012…
