Hugo Chavez — the Socialist dictator holding Venezuela hostage — is about to learn the hard way that Socialism never lasts. Check out this article from Investor’s Business Daily, Chavez Steps Into ‘Devil’s Excrement’: But even on a price roller coaster, oil companies survive by investing in new production when prices are high, and subsidizing […]
“Give it to me, buddy,” says Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez. Or he’ll seize it. As we’ve predicted, the demise of Venezuela into a socialist, Marxist hell-hole is accelerating as Chavez, not content nationalizing private corporations, is now seizing individual holdings in order to “give to the poor.” We’re just waiting for Hugo to announce that […]
Venezuelan thug Hugo Chavez sure is a thin-skinned, insecure little dictator considering the complete consolidation of power that he has managed. During his first appearance in five months on his weekly radio and television show, Chavez told American officials to “Go to hell, gringos!” President Hugo Chavez told U.S. officials to “Go to hell, gringos!” […]
(Hat tip: powerlineblog) Anyone hearing the unhinged, UN speech of Hugh Chavez, or his personal attacks on President Bush from a church in the New York neighborhood of Harlem, easily recognize that his rhetoric has been lifted from anti-Bush, Democratic talking points and Air America vitriol — all joyously propagated, ad nauseum, by the mainstream […]
Stanley Kurtz: Obama and Ayers Pushed Radicalism On Schools Despite having authored two autobiographies, Barack Obama has never written about his most important executive experience. From 1995 to 1999, he led an education foundation called the Chicago Annenberg Challenge (CAC), and remained on the board until 2001. The group poured more than $100 million into […]
(Hat tip: HR) James Lewis has a fantastic article in American Thinker, How crypto-Marxism won the Cold War. Our comments follow. Today, for the first time in American history we have two — count ’em, two — hard-core Leftists running for the Democrat Party nomination. The Left hasn’t had this kind of chance for power […]
Hugo Chavez and his hero-comrade, Fidel Castro, sharing their dreams together. We’ve written often on Venezuela’s transformation to a socialist hell-hole under the thugocracy of Hugo Chavez. Like all socialist “worker’s paradises”, Venezuela is now dying of hemophilia: her best and brightest citizens are bleeding out of the country. They are giving up their homes, […]
The good folks at Cox and Forkum alerted us to a Fox News story on our favorite South American dictator, Hugo Chavez.

(Hat tip: Michelle) The fix is in on the Shamnesty Bill, and the message to America from Senate Republicans like John McCain, Jon Kyl, Lindsey Grahamnesty, and Trent Lott is: “Screw You.” “Senate Leaders Agree to Revive Immigration Bill:” Earlier in the day, trying to start the bill moving again in the Senate, Mr. Bush […]
Fox News’ Adam Housley has been covering the riots in Caracas, Venezuela for several days now, and his reports are amazing. Here’s a sample: People are crying and screaming. Grown men have tears spreading down their cheeks. The night is steamy and tempers begin the flare. People seem to understand that they have lost more […]
(Hat tip: Michelle Malkin) Practically every week, Venezuelan madman Hugo Chavez screws up something else in his insane crusade toward Marxism. This time a bunch of Chavez-sanctioned anarchists/communists vandalized the buildings of Venezuela’s oldest private TV station, RCTV, which must cease broadcasting at the end of May thanks to Chavez’ “people’s revolution.” Is this violence […]
(Hat tip: “Chavez Vows Collectivization”) Poor Venezuela. We’re surprised that Hugo Chavez hasn’t hired Lego ladies Ann Pelo and Kendra Pelojoaquin as consultants for his latest grand, socialist initiative: Collective Property. If nothing else, it would be a great opportunity for the teachers from Hilltop Children’s Center to see how their social justice learning principles […]
Legos — Building blocks for social inequality or tools of collectivist indoctrination? Neal Boortz is talking about an experiment in Socialism at Seattle’s Hilltop Children’s Center that involved a “Legotown” built by the students.

“The United States has always stood toe-to-toe against tyrants and thugs, and we always will. I urge you to stop airing television ads and participating in activities that praise Hugo Chavez, and apologize for your defense of this very dangerous dictator.” Hah. Good luck, Representative Mack. Like most Democrats, Joe Kennedy is infatuated with socialist […]
In Hillary’s speech at the DNC Winter meeting, she said some rather amazing things that have gotten quite a bit of press this week. Like those “For Idiots” books that dumb-down a complex topic with simple explanations and instructions, the essence of Hillary’s speech was a short, three paragraph burst that contains all anyone really […]

This week the good folks at coxandforkum.com bring us this post for more raving insanity from Chavez who is now nationalizing various […]
Don’t miss this sobering essay by Bridget Johnson on National Review, Chavez Swallows a Nation. You want a sure bet? If Venezuela continues down this road, in ten years it will be a failed, impoverished, socialist hell-hole on Earth complete with political killings, an outlawed media and all the other trappings of totalitarian, Marxists thugocracies.

Last week we were treated to the verbal vomit of Hugo Chavez and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at the circus known as the United Nations. Their attempts at humor were not only pathetic but also revealed the frustrations of ignorant thugs. Compare the statements of Chavez and Ahmadinejad to these classic witticisms sent to us by GPBurdell, […]
Hugo Chavez playing the United States for fools at the UN. Here’s what little green footballs is saying about Hugo Chavez’s rant at the UN: Chavez Spews Hatred at UN If you need any more evidence that the United Nations is a disgusting, morally bankrupt waste of money for the United States, turn on Fox […]
