Chavez Excited About Obama Win

CARACAS, Nov 2 (Reuters) – Anti-U.S. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez predicted on Sunday the “black man” will win the U.S. presidential race and offered to hold talks with him to improve ties between the superpower and one its biggest oil suppliers.

Barack Obama, the Democratic nominee who would be the first black U.S. president if he wins Tuesday’s election, said this year he would be open to dialogue with leaders like Chavez — a remark that was seized on by Republicans as naive.

McCain, who trails Obama in polls, has labeled Chavez a dictator.

Chavez, a socialist who has mocked President George W. Bush and calls ex-Cuban leader Fidel Castro his mentor, has said there is an inevitable clash between U.S. and Venezuelan interests, although he has at times offered to ease bilateral tensions.

“We are not asking him to be a revolutionary, to be a socialist — no,” Chavez said at a political rally. We just want the black man who is about to be the U.S. president to have enough stature for the times the world is living through.

Nice of him to refer to the Senator as ‘black man‘ a half-dozen times, huh?

    This is like bizarro world… All of the worlds thugs, tyrants, and dictators are endorsing the man who has a better than 50/50 chance of being our next president and Americans don’t give a crap.

    Peeved guy, you hurt me very deeply, I eat lots of fiber just so I can give a crap.
    Only 50% of America doesn’t care that our next (possible) president has been endorsed by all the whackos, dumbocraps, terrorists and tyrants of the world.
    Personally, I am terrified. The scariest thing, I have posted all these anti-BHO posts here. When the messiah is pres he will shut down this radio station and confiscate these posts and come after people like you and me for speaking our voice. We will be the people who disappear in Gitmo as enemies of the state, while the real terrorists will be let loose to bomb the country again. We will be sent to re-education (torture) camps to learn how to accept communism and the ideology of the messiah.

    LOL

    I don’t think he will shut the radio stations down outright, he will ask congress to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine will will require stations like this one to run “progressive” points of view. People will stop listening and they go out of business.

    Same result, but less outrage from the populace.
