George Bush Should Immediately Nationalize All Venevuelan Assets In The US

[Rage for Order]

Unless Hugo Chavez issues a public apology for all of the insulting things he has said about Bush and America. Are we going to turn the page, are we going to forget? No! The only way this is going to be fixed is for the president of Venezuela to offer an apology for having attacked the American head of state. Venezuelans bought some assets here, and it doesn't cost us anything to take those assets back and nationalize them again, and put them in the service of the American people.

For justification for this position, please refer to this thread

8. He's not one of us... He keeps applying, but he fills his apps out in crayon... When will he learn?

[madokie]

3. are you sure you're at the right place

look up there in the address bar and see... k :evilgrin:

[Rage for Order]

5. I'm pretty sure I am...

The address bar says "Democraticundergound", not "HugoChavezunderground"

4. oh goody

:sarcasm:

Oh well, there's only one thing to do now:

:popcorn:

6. Legalize Slim Whitman.

7. Hmmm, George Bush has alredy invaded Iraq to take over their oil /nt

[EFerrari]

9. Except Junior wouldn't do that. He'd just steal them for his cronies.

Oh, well.

[msongs]

10. and if chavez names a teddy bear after george w bush, chavez should be executed? nt

[Rage for Order]

22. I don't know about executed...

15 days in jail would probably be sufficient.

[cgrindley]

11. Fascist (nt)

[mmonk]

12. Or we can just conquer them for our corporate rulers

like we did Iraq and privatize their economy by force. Shock and Awe is great.

[Toucano]

13. George Bush can't even say "nationalize"

It's the magic word that makes fascists disappear in a puff of smoke.

[OilemFirchen]

14. Fine and dandy

Notwithstanding that * would thence morph into a socialist (dictator in waiting?), the appropriate response would be for Chavez to nationalize VZ's U.S. assets - which, of course, he's not threatened to do.

Methinks that Venezuela has the upper hand, and the theater would be well worth the price of admission.

16. You took the words right from under my key pad... lol.. n/t

[BridgeTheGap]

17. Nationalize, privatize, sanitize, revitalize

Just when will you realize?

[Bright Eyes]

18. We should invade too!

Think of all that oil!

And we'd be spreading 'Freedom & Democracy(TM)'
:sarcasm:

[LakeSamish706]

19. President Chavez has absolutely nothing to apologize for, and in fact...

it would be the other way around as I see it.

[Rage for Order]

21. You're not very good at recognizing satire, are you?

I'm merely pointing out the absurdity of Chavez's threat to nationalize another country's assets simply because he felt insulted by the leader of a country.

[provis99]

23. to the anti-Chavez folks, this isn't satire

They're dead serious.

[Ignis]

29. Exactly. We see serious posts like this all the time.

Sadly, you'll have to resort to a :sarcasm: smiley if you really don't mean whatever hateful, outrageous things you say about Col. Chavez -- because someone here has already said it in earnest.

[OilemFirchen]

24. That's satire?

Nope.

This is satire:

In response to repeated insults from Hugo Chavez, George Bush should undermine Chavez's government, foment unrest, and sponsor a coup.

Ha ha ha, eh?

[Rage for Order]

25. You have it backwards...

Bush did that BEFORE Chavez insulted him!

[L. Coyote]

20. Wouldn't it be easier to just kill our political opponents and take over their countries

It has worked for the US so many times before.

What, you say you didn't know this. Well, I guess you haven't been hanging out with Presidents in Latin America!

[Joe Fields]

26. We should be apologizing to Venezuela for inserting

covert operations into that country to try and overthrow a democratically elected leader of a sovereign nation.

[Bonhomme Richard]

27. I'm confused. Where is Venevuela?

[izquierdista]

28. To me * suggests a baboon

It isn't fair to the rest of the baboons.

30. Do you think that you would enjoy ten dollar/gallon gas?

For that is what following your plan would result in, and that would hurt the US a hell of a lot more than our seizing their few assets in this country.
