[About Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez dying of cancer.]
If you listen to the reports right now, you'd think the reporters were talking about the NLN Bastard in the White house: Chavez: Spent hours on television; was a real presence; took away private property in order to give away freebies to the "poor" who kept voting themselves more freebies and putting the communist/marxist/socialist bastard back in office; hated America.

Strange, I still have all my pony figures, and the laptop on which I write pony stories. Both would be classed as private property and yet neither has been taken for the glory of the poor. I'm not sure what you're getting at, besides announcing you have a small penis and a hooded white robe in your closet.
If Obama is a business-hating communist, why is the Dow Jones higher than it's ever been? Why are corporate profits and the United States wealth greater than at any time in history? And why the FUCK are the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer? That's kind of the opposite of Socialism, bucko.
“If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it.”
- Stephen Colbert
"Tell me that's not 0bastard in spades"
That's not Obama in spades. The rich is still rich, the poor is still poor, no ones property has been taken away and given to the poor. Tell me, what are you complaining about?
Hours on TV? Chavez made it the law that every channel had to carry all of his speeches and programs; many of them lasted for hours on end. In the US, we have the First Amendment and many channels do not waste a second on covering any politician, let alone the President. Even on the news channels, his longest addresses, such as the State of the Union, last about an hour. No comparison.
Taking away private property? According to the International Property Rights Index, Venezuela is 112th equal out of 115; the USA is 19th. No comparison.
Freebie-driven voter base? It's no secret that Chavez relied on support from the poor to whom he gave generous welfare payments and subsidized food, housing, gas etc. He also made it plain to anyone in the public sector that they had better vote for him or else. Less than 2% of Obama's voter base, by contrast, was on welfare. No comparison.
Hating America? Chavez use to rattle his saber at regular intervals against the US. Obama has strengthened defenses at home and abroad, improved our international relations and gotten rid of Osama bin Laden. No comparison.
Real presence? Yes, Obama is a real presence; at least Lubbock has that right. But that's still just 1 out of 5.
"May they BOTH burn in hell!"
So you know God is going to burn them both in hell and you are pointlessly wishing your omnipotent, omniscient God will carry out his will, or are you pointlessly pleading with God to torture two people for eternity against his will just to please you?
Communists, socialists, and Marxists, by definition hate free enterprise. Obama does not hate free enterprise so he, logically, is none of those things.
Keep talking, Lubbock. It helps sink your political party and your religion in public opinion polls. The rational people of America appreciate your efforts to make yourself not only irrelevant, but outright loathed.
Don't dare compare Chavez with Obama. If Obama gave half the shit Chavez gave for his people, no bank would have taken anybody's house, and most US people would own one instead of having to pay somebody who hoarded up on houses.
What do think this is...Robin Hood? If it's a Robin Hood story, I'm afraid you're the Sherriff of Nottingham :p
"hated America."
He wasn't all bad then?
"If you listen to the reports right now, you'd think the reporters were talking about the NLN Bastard in the White house: Bush: Spent hours on television; was a real presence; took away private property in order to give away freebies to the "job creators" who kept voting themselves more freebies and putting the communist/marxist/socialist bastard back in office; hated America.
Fixed.
@Gabriel LaVedier: Neither of those would be classed as private property, actually. They would be your possessions.
@JohnConstantine: Benjamin Tucker would like a word...
@Lubbock: Who's this 0bastard in the white house? Does your president know about them?
Huh. Obama's been in power for a full term.
Try as I might, I am not seeing the U.S. morphing into the Socialist Dystopia you guys keep insisting he's going to make.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
