i missed the memo, why should we hate Chavez???

[LSK]

Dont have the brainwashing machine on enough I guess.

[Moochy]

1. Leftist Commie!!

:think:
Beacuse he visits with FIDEL CASTRO!! and he's leftist!!! :wow:

And because we tried to overthrow him before.

[Sanity Claws]

2. The memo went only to Repugs and oil executives

We should hate him because he has oil and just made a deal with China to supply it with oil. Everyone knows it belongs to us.
:sarcasm:

[LSK]

9. so let me get this straight

Hes got oil, and the capitalist (supposedly) Rethugs are angry that he is selling it to the highest bidder???? So he acts as a capitalist, plays the free market to sell his oil, yet he is a commie loving leftists??? :wtf:

[Sanity Claws]

16. But does he sell to the highest bidder?

Haven't you heard he wants to help out the American poor with cheaper gas? He's undermining our entire value system.

[LSK]

17. well, my guess is China has more money than us

Afterall, they finance our debt. Does he sell to the highest bidder???

[donheld]

21. You are thinking for yourself? Shame!

That's the memo we all failed to get. We are suppose to just believe the Moran in chief, and no asking questions.

[wtbymark]

3. He's got OIL!!! and so does Iran by the way

so if you're holding on to any oil, keep it a secret because the 'Crawford Creep' will be knocking on your door too!

[wakeme2008]

4. He has got a LOT of Oil

do we need another reason.. :sarcasm:

[marzipanni]

5. Shhh....(Beacuse if we aren't directed to hate him

we might allow ourselves to discover that he's a compassionate leader, in deed, not in cheap words.)

[Justitia]

6. because he's harder to kidnap than Aristide. -eom

[Warren DeMontague]

7. Because it doesn't matter if you're democratically elected

if we don't like yuh, yer a DICTATER.

[kansasblue]

8. he helps the poor

Because he's helping the poor. Taking land from the rich (5% of the people own 80% of the land) and giving it to the poor. (83% of the population live below the poverty level).

He's also trying to get more money from the vast oil reserves. Most of the money goes out of the country.

[jonnyblitz]

10. because OUR oil ended up under HIS land. nt

[rman]

11. because he has oil

Robertson actually said as much, though not directly of course, but he did mention oil. Also Chavez is wrecking the economy of Venezuela; the 17% growth recently is obviously not good enough.

Economic invasion is clearly not an option with Chavez in power, and a coup is not going to work anymore. The next option is assassination. If that fails: war. Seriously, it works like that every time.

[walldude]

15. IIRC we(the U.S.) tried once to sponsor a coup and it

failed. The people in Venezuela apparently love Chavez, so we need to keep our noses out of it...

[Walt Starr]

12. We've ALWAYS been at war with Eastasia...er....uh... Venezuela!

Emmanuel Goldstein...er...um...Hugo Chavez has ALWAYS been an enemy of Oceania!

[spuddonna]

13. He's a LIBERAL... and he has 'our' oil... He's like an evil OREO!

"Creamy light crude oil goodness on the inside, black chocolately evil liberalness on the outside..." You can almost hear W wet his pants when he thinks about all that oil... so close, yet so far...

:sarcasm:
Why does Chavez hate our freedom to come and take his oil?

[DoYouEverWonder]

14. Oil industry insiders and rich people

hate him with a passion. Mainly because he is a man of the 'people' and has done a lot of good for the poor people of Venezuela. That is why he keeps getting elected by huge margins. The poor people love him.

[txindy]

18. He's got our oil under his soil

Or something like that.

[TOhioLiberal]

19. According to the local...

...talking heads, he gave 1 million dollars to al Qaeda after 9/11.

Guess he's a terrorist sympathizer :sarcasm:

[LSK]

20. my reaction to that claim is:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Let me guess, he left his receipt behind and the next customer at the Al Queda donation center found it??? :sarcasm:

[TOhioLiberal]

22. Let's put it this way...

...the only citation I could find was from World Nut Daily. :rofl:
