Oops, My Bad, Socialist Edition

From a recent article –

Undaunted by a slowing economy, America's still popular President Barack Obama is picking up the pace of his left-wing revolution with a relentless raft of nationalizations and an offensive against opponents.”

“Hot on the heels of nationalizing dozens of financial companies in the nation earlier this year, Obama ordered the takeover of several large auto makers last month, then snapped up a large bank and vowed to further limit the private sector.”

"We are not subordinated to the bourgeoise elite but to the interests of the people," Obama said on Saturday. "We are proceeding and will continue to proceed with nationalizations of strategic sectors."

Oops, my bad.

The article was actually about Hugo Chavez, and I only changed the words in italics.

Could you even tell the article was not about Obama?

Big (Obama) Brother Is Coming

Here is another view pointing out that nationalizing an industry such as the car industry is a bad idea.

By the way, nationalizing the banking industry, financial industry, and automotive industry has worked out exactly as they planned so far, hasn't it? I just can't wait to see how they handle the health care and media industries.

We're Too Busy Taking Over Banks and Car Companies To Speak Up

Obama’s hugging buddy, Hugo Chavez, has used the military to seize more privately owned property, including two American-owned gas facilities.

I guess Chavez figures his good ole boy buddy won’t do anything to stop him, especially since they both believe in socialism and the state running everything. It’d be hypocritical of Obama to say anything or do anything to Chavez when he is working up to the same thing here.
