CHAVEZ CALLS ON OBAMA TO FOLLOW PATH OF SOCIALISM

Caracas - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Friday called upon US President Barack Obama to follow the path to socialism, which he termed as the "only" way out of the global recession. "Come with us, align yourself, come with us on the road to socialism. This is the only path. Imagine a socialist revolution in the United States," Chavez told a group of workers in the southern Venezuelan state of Bolivar.

The controversial Venezuelan leader, who taunted the United States as a source of capitalistic evil under former president George W Bush, added that the United States needs a leader who can take it to a "higher" destiny and bring it out of "the sad role that it has been given, as a murderous, attacking power that is hated all around the world."

Chavez said that people are calling Obama a "socialist" for the measures of state intervention he is taking to counter the crisis, so it would not be too far-fetched to suggest that he might join the project of "21st century socialism" that the Venezuelan leader is heading.

So for the first time, little Hugo could say, “I am proud of the United States.” /s

This is fantastic. It puts BHO in an interesting position.

Does he:

1 - Ignore it?
2 - Say, hey, I’m way ahead of you?
3 - Repudiate it?

I think he will ignore it and the PRAVDA media will give him a pass too.

Obama is already there. They are both socialist thugs who want to destroy their country's economy and have Stalin like control. The only difference is that Chavez has oil exports to finance his incompetence. Oil that was discovered and produced by American Companies by the way.
