Chavez win in Venezuela sets new challenges
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) - Venezuelans awakened on Monday to the prospect of another six years under President Hugo Chavez as the leftist president’s supporters celebrated his victory against a youthful rival and a galvanized opposition pledged to build on its gains.
Chavez emerged from Sunday’s vote both strengthened and sobered, having reconfirmed his masterful political touch but also winning by his tightest margin yet. Challenger Henrique Capriles said while conceding defeat that his campaign had launched a new political force and that he would keep working for change.
The 58-year-old leader now has a freer hand to push for an even bigger state role in the economy and deepen friendships with U.S. rivals. Meanwhile, he’s under pressure to address nuts-and-bolts governance issues such as soaring crime rates, power blackouts and double-digit inflation.
With a turnout of 81 percent, Chavez only got 551,902 more votes this time around than he did six years ago, while the opposition boosted its tally by about 2.1 million. Chavez appeared to acknowledge the opposition’s growing clout during a boisterous victory speech late Sunday night.

Chavez win in Venezuela sets new challenges
If you fast forward to Nov. 7, 2012, and change a few words here and there, this is the story you will be reading if the United States of America is so STUPID that it would give Barack Hussein Obama another 4 years to finish his destructive plans for America!
Here is a bit of how it will look on Nov. 7th should Obama win the day, with the hopefully faux future Obama headlines in italics:
‘Obama emerged from Tuesday’s vote both strengthened and sobered, having reconfirmed his masterful political touch but also winning by his tightest margin yet.’
Notice the slobbering praise the media heaps on? “His masterful political touch”? It’s more like his diabolical use of military and police sources to FORCE votes for him.
‘The 51-year-old leader now has a freer hand to push for an even bigger state role in the economy and deepen friendships with U.S. rivals.’
Obama already made it very plain to Russian President Dmitry Medvedev “This is my last election, after my election, I have more flexibility.”
‘Obama said while gloating over the defeat of Mitt Romney that his campaign had launched a new political force and that he would keep working for change.’
An Obama win will indeed launch a new political force on America, one called full blown Socialism.
Obama promised Hope and Change, well folks, with Obama in office there is NO hope but you can count on drastic CHANGE if this Socialist, America hating piece of crap is allowed to continue on his current path.
‘Meanwhile, “Some of you people are trying to pressure me into addressing the nuts-and-bolts governance issues such as soaring crime rates, power blackouts and double-digit inflation” Obama said.
He went on to say, “I see none of those things, power outages save power and with all of the coal-fired plants shut down that’s a good thing. The latest job report came in at 1.8% unemployed. I am a genius at these things, I have shown the American people how the polls and surveys have been manipulated against ME and now they are seeing REAL figures, compiled by MY campaign staff. As to the idea that crime is on the rise, all I see is underprivileged Obama supporters taking what they are entitled to.”
My dear friends and readers; let me sum this up by saying, a Socialist has an easy time collecting followers, he makes lots of promises about free programs for a wide range of services. Some of us call it *THE FREE CHEESE*.
As long as there are people that have money that can be taken (stolen) BY the Socialist government, thus allowing said government to continue to keep doling out *THE FREE CHEESE*, the lazy RATS are going to vote for that Socialist.
Do you remember hearing this? “A chicken in every pot and a car in every garage”?
It seems several presidents are given credit for that statement, no matter, it still translates into a people being provided for BY their government. That is what Barack Hussein Obama wants; a nation of mindless sycophants that are totally dependent on HIM and the U.S.S.A.* for their every need.
I hope and pray that we don’t wake up on the morning of Nov. 7, 2012 asking ourselves “What the hell have we done?” because as long as Obama dangles that *FREE CHEESE* there will be DemocRATS that support him.
*United Socialist States of America
Should the electorate be stupid enough as to bestow a second term on Obama, the only political force I can envision is full blown civil war.
And for the Great State of Texas to once again become The Republic of Texas!
Texas sounds like a lovely place to live. I should ask my niece in Houston.
Most REAL Texans try to avoid Houston proper… And Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Ft. Worth and El Paso…
For all the obvious reasons…
Which enforces the fact that high-population centers vote for Demorats because they are held hostage by Demorat mayors and the greater bulk of parasites who want their own individual Free Cheese and no concomitant responsibilities, work or accountabilities.

Exactly!
I intend to be standing at the door to my polling place when they unlock on November 6th! It will be an historic day. It will be recorded as the day AMERICA WAS RESCUED, or the day AMERICA WAS LOST … forever!

For some reason, I doubt Chavez actually won the election but instead he made it so he won. You can bet Obama and his minions will be paying close attention to how he did it so it can be repeated here.
That’s what I am thinking too Bob…
Trying to get accustomed to site… What’s his name…Shove It As Is…won? Almost like Whose on first? What’s that again? I don’t know.
Well I live in a fairly red area in CA (Yeah, there’s a few places out here that vote with their heads) Anyway, if Obama wins, this nation becomes California in damn near every aspect. And if that happens, Greece and Spain will look like the minor leagues. Before Obama we thought things would get bad. NOW we know how bad they will get. The media is as culpable in this crap as the democrat party and they will feel the wrath as much should the winds shift in an ugly direction.
