Tragic and serious news from TPM today, folks. Not that we couldn’t see this coming.
According to eyewitness sources, under the apparently blind eye of the global media, the two leaders had lengthy conversations. The media covered the friendly photo of the initial handshake between the two leaders, then made much ado about an apparently-impertinent Chavez handing Obama a book in Spanish by Eduardo Galleano.
What has not been reported is that Obama, leaving his advisers behind, held lengthy private conversations with Chavez where only an interpreter was present.
We have a South American marxist oriented dictator who funds paramilitary groups and drug cartels intent on undermining democratic, capitalist leaning governments in the western hemisphere having private friendly conversations with the American President, and no one seems concerned?!
To remind you, Barack Obama was/is a member of the New Party, a known communist oriented organization that, to get their political endorsement back in the 90’s, Obama had to pledge allegiance to them.
Now, as President, Barack Obama is undermining the democratic government of Honduras, a long time American ally, and doing nothing to help Columbia fend off the drug cartels being funded by Chavez.
Ladies and gentlemen, we’re so busy watching Barack Obama destroy American capitalism in his domestic policy, we’ve failed to pay attention that he is also destroying our long time foreign policy ideals too.
Thank you...
The_Stranger Tuesday, July 7th at 5:13AM EDT (link)Thank you for bringing Mr. Hayden’s story to light. We can alway trust that commentator to bring out the truth, and it appears that he has done just that once again. Let’s see how they spin this one now.
Wait a minute...
firedup Tuesday, July 7th at 11:05AM EDT (link)Isn’t this the same Tom Hayden who was a founder of SDS, and one of the Chicago Seven (along with Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin)? Why should we trust his “reporting” in the first place? Notice that he doesn’t source anything. (”According to eyewitnesses…” Sez who?)
With all due respect, Stranger, I suspect that either he’s baselessly trying to play up and lend credence to his own socialist agenda, or worse, he might be trying to bait conservatives by trying to get us all worked up over “secret meetings” that no one except Hayden’s “eyewitnesses” seem to have noticed.
I’d be careful here using his commentary as proof of Obama’s radical tendencies and affiliations.
(On the other hand, Hayden could just be a sloppy journalist, and his sources do exist and his commentary is accurate and Erick is right to be concerned. If that’s the case, then forgive my wariness and just ignore this post. Maybe I’m overthinking.)
Peas in a pod and from the same vine.
Tbone Tuesday, July 7th at 10:22AM EDT (link)I know a lot of you idealists still refuse to accept the possibility that Obama’s rise to power was not within the political parameters of our traditions. But, somebody juiced this guy.
Oh, and answer me this, just where is his birth certificate and why have tons of money been spent to keep from producing it?
Envisioning when all that is Left is the Right.
Good reminder, Erick,
Stephen Halsey Tuesday, July 7th at 10:44AM EDT (link)but it seems as though the only ones who care about this are those of us who get much of our information from the blogosphere. It was clear 18 months ago that Obama was (and still is) a Marxist and a totalitarian sympathizer. Yet the GOP ticket last fall chose to ignore these ominous signs.
Not to threadjack but perhaps this is the real reason Sarah Palin resigned as governor. I’m hoping that she has picked up on these very troubling aspects of Obama and what many of us believe Obama has planned for this country and she is planning to unload. I got the sense last fall that she really wanted to talk about Obama’s Marxist , socialist and communist ties but was completely handcuffed by the incompetent McCain campaign.
Hit hard. Hit fast. Hit often.

Something is fishy here...
azaeroprof Tuesday, July 7th at 1:02PM EDT (link)First of all, as mentioned above, this IS the same Tom Hayden, so we must take anything he says with a grain of salt (actually, a salt LICK would be better!).
Second, he talks about secret meetings between Obama and Chavez as some kind of good thing, like a new partnership. Then he turns around and talks about how Obama “outsmarted” Chavez by coming out against the coup in Honduras and precluding Chavez blaming the CIA.
Huh?
A more likely possibility, if these “secret” meetings really happened, is that Obama and Chavez coordinated their responses to the coming coup.
