Chavez not a McCainiac

A few weeks ago, we read that the terrorists of FARC were hoping for an Obama victory, yesterday I wrote that a Democrat Congressman turned up in FARC computers as a collaborator with the terrorist organization. Today’s news brings word that Chavez, Venezuela’s terrorist-supporting, anti-American demagogue, announced he’s not supporting a McCain candidacy (Reuters link).

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, a socialist and fierce U.S. critic, warned on Tuesday that relations with Washington could worsen if Republican candidate John McCain wins this year’s presidential election.

Chavez said he hopes the United States and Venezuela can work better together when his ideological foe, U.S. President George W. Bush, leaves the White House next year, but he said McCain seemed “warlike.”

“Sometimes one says, ‘worse than Bush is impossible,’ but we don’t know,” Chavez told foreign correspondents. “McCain also seems to be a man of war.”

Chavez — who has called Bush “the devil”, “a donkey” and ‘Mr Danger” — accuses the United States of having imperial designs in Latin America and says the White House has plotted his overthrow.

I guess Chavez wasn’t paying attention in 2004 when Osama bin Laden came out for a Kerry presidency. American voters don’t like being told by foreigners how we should vote.

The Jawa Report writes that Chavez is meddling in Peru now, since his revolution isn’t catching on in Venezuela.
