The Republicans, Chavez and you all finally agree. Does that make you and your Republicans communists? Inquiring minds want to know.

Chávez Lambastes Obama as ‘Ignorant’

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: March 22, 2009

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Hugo Chávez of Venezuela called President Obama “ignorant” on Sunday, saying he has a lot to learn about Latin America.

Mr. Chávez said he had been ready to name a new ambassador in Washington, but put it on hold after the new American president accused him of “exporting terrorism” and being an obstacle to progress in the region.

“At least one could say, ‘poor ignorant person,’ ” Mr. Chávez said on his weekly television and radio program, adding that Mr. Obama “should read a little bit so that he learns about the reality.”

Mr. Chávez said: “If Obama respects us, we’ll respect him. If Obama tries to keep disrespecting Venezuela, we will confront the North American empire.”

The United States Embassy in Caracas did not immediately return a call seeking comment on Sunday.
