Hugo Chavez: Foreigners Critical Of My Regime Will Be Expelled

Let freedom ring!

President Hugo Chavez said foreigners who publicly criticise him or his government while visiting Venezuela will be expelled from the country.

Mr Chavez ordered officials to closely monitor statements made by international figures during their visits to Venezuela — and deport any outspoken critics. “How long are we going to allow a person — from any country in the world — to come to our own house to say there’s a dictatorship here, that the President is a tyrant, and nobody does anything about it?” asked Mr Chavez, speaking during his weekly Sunday television and radio programme.

“No foreigner, whoever he may be, can come here and attack us. Whoever comes, we must remove him from the country,” he said. “I’m talking about some gentlemen who come here for conferences.” The Venezuelan leader did not elaborate but his statements came after Manuel Espino, the president of Mexico’s conservative ruling party, criticised Mr Chavez for seeking indefinite rule during a recent pro-democracy forum in Caracas.

Of course, liberal Democrat foreigners like Cindy Sheehan, Danny Glover and Harry Belafonte who travel down to Venezuela to fawn over Hugo Chavez and his socialist dictatorship will be welcomed with open arms and exploited in the media as the useful idiots they are.

Rob: I object to you calling those idiots useful! Idiot is as idiot does!


No matter the age or state of health, for a military man it is always glorious to tilt at windmills, rescue a fair Dulcinea and be a gallant knight in armor in a glorious cause.

and Hugo’s next move will be to prevent all his slaves from leaving his country, just like the USSR did with its Iron Curtain.  Similarily the Chinese Communists, N. Koreans keep their people from leaving for freedom.


Communism is evil

A dictator being dictatorial; what a big surprise!  /sarcasm


Media uncovers more Palin stories in one weekend than Obama stories in two years. Still no bias detected

Who does Hugo thinks he is; Bill Clinton?

Clinton Rejects Freedom of Speech!

In the summer of 1996 Glenn and Patricia Mendoza attended A Taste of Chicago, in Chicago, Illinois. An event which President Clinton was also attending. Mrs. Mendoza allegedly yelled, “You suck! And those boys died.”

I’m normally against shameless plugs of my own blog, but I thought a post from the other day might add some more levity to Rob’s post:
