Title: BHO, in another gaffe, says NAD-hero dictator Chavez siezed power post '01

Will Media Report Obama's Gaffe About When Hugo Chavez Came to Power?

By Noel Sheppard | May 25, 2008 - 15:14 ET

Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama made another gaffe on the campaign trail Friday when he suggested at a luncheon hosted by the Cuban American National Foundation that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez came to power while George W. Bush was in the White House.

Chavez was first elected president in 1998, and reelected in 2000, both occurring while Bill Clinton was serving his second term.

This was not the only gaffe Obama made in Florida Friday, for at another campaign stop, the junior senator from Illinois several times referred to the city of Sunrise as "Sunshine." This comes a week after calling Sioux Falls, South Dakota, "Sioux City," and two weeks after saying that America has 57 states.

Will Obama-loving media ever cover these gaffes?

While you ponder, here's the text of Obama's mistake concerning Chavez (video embedded upper right, relevant section begins at minute 2:50, h/t LGF):

Story Continues Below Ad [5; Since the Bush Administration launched a misguided war in Iraq, its policy in the Americas has been negligent toward our friends, ineffective with our adversaries, disinterested in the challenges that matter in peoples’ lives, and incapable of advancing our interests in the region. No wonder, then, that demagogues like Hugo Chavez have stepped into this vacuum.

Are these gaffes ever going to get reported?

This is a presidential election, and the man who is likely to be the Democrat nominee doesn't seem to know how many states are in our union, what city he's in when he's campaigning, or when our enemies came to power.

Isn't this newsworthy?

After all, if McCain made these errors on the stump, media would be claiming it to be early signs of Alzheimer's, and that would be the end of his campaign.

Those interested in more on the differences between how the press cover Democrat and Republican gaffes should read Michelle Malkin's fabulous piece on this subject from last Wednesday.

Technically, Chavez came to power for a third time during the Bush regime after the Bush-engineered coup pushed him out into the Bush and he then reconquered his job back.

By the way, how dares Chavez hate Bush's guts? Just because Bush tried to oust him, hoping that he retreats into a spider hole and then maybe get him hang on a rope following some due process kangaroo court proceedings? Only an insane, democratically elected dictator such as Chavez would hate the Bush, just because Bush was trying to spread a little democracy.

Great pic. which speaks a thousand words. With his voting coaliation of 99.9% of blacks, college kids and dopey, guilt ridden whites, he should hit 44% of the national vote, tops :P

I'd vote for Chavez in a heartbeat over Obama, the Chimp or any other American who has run in recent years, provided we also get Venezuela as our 51st state in the deal.

Oh, forgive me for daring to comment on your wise comments and for not asking you what this thread was about first.

Now, tell me, why do you love Hillary so much? Or is it McCain that you love? If you're in love with McCain, that would technically make you a... metrosexualist so thank you for coming out of the outhouse?

And here is something his idiot old lady said:

From a speech in California:

"Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zone . . . Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual - uninvolved, uninformed."~ Michelle Obama

Just let that all sink in for a minute. Obummer is going to "require you to work." And he is going to make "demands" on you, make you "put down" things whether you choose to or not, and will not allow you to be alone or to be left alone. And he will "never allow you to go back to your lives as usual" no matter what you think about it. And people actually want to vote for this?

It would actually be funny, if that happened. Think about the kids, discussing their foundling fathers in school.

I heard that he is against fat and stupid people but he wants the homos to marry and teach the fat people how to exercise and raise their kids so that they don't play video games all day long and get fat and stupid.

Venezuela could have the world's ALL oil reserves and it would not make one iota of difference in a globalized economy. Note that some of the Alaska oil is sold to Japan TODAY. The oil price is set on a global market and the factors are supply, demand and fear/optimism about the near future.

Yes, the HOPELESS and INEPT have nothing to lose, so HOPE and CHANGE is an attractive alternative to their hellish lives. Michelle and Barack better get a stable of slaves if social manipulation is their game. No free man or woman would allow those ivy league elitists to change the country to their warped image.

I'm fascinated by the Obama Knee pad crew; they had me fooled. Once upon a time they paraded about as opponents to socialism and big government. Frankly, I'm glad they tore off their masks. We're entering a time in our history where these feckless guilters will have no value to freedom lovers.

Come on, why don't you confess? Which of THE TWO do you love the most? Is it Hilly or is it McCain.

I just realized, regardless of which one you love more, you'll still be a homo, politically speaking, because, Hilly too, she's got testicular fortitude.

No, my friend. You lost, and you lost multiple times.

You lost because you could not overcome your fear of ridicule and confess your true love for either Hillary or McCain.

You lost again because, you could not overcome your prejudice and your fear of ridicule and confess your political gayness. To be gay is no longer a stigma, it's a badge of otherness and you should be wearing it proud.

And you lost one more time because demonstrated to the millions of 4um members and lurkers that your agenda is not only driven by hatred and fear but, in fact, it is fear and hatred itself.

I don't take orders from people like them (or McCain or Clinton--I mention them because even though I have never supported any of them you obummer supporters get your panties bunched up unless someone takes shots at them too--so there you go).

Hill and McCain are old war horses. I'm bored by their act. Besides they're white. Obama, OTOH, is new material, and his cultists a unique breed of Political Pod. They amuse me with their political correctness and love of multiculturalism.

So no, I'll stay w/Obama until I become weary of his swill.
