Chavez Blasts Secretary of State Clinton as "a Blond Condoleezza"

 

Venezuealan President Hugo Chavez has criticised US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton after she made comments in Brazil that he condemned as aggressive, and stated: "She comes to Brazil to provoke us, to try and divide us from our brothers."

He said, also, that: "To me, she´s like Condoleezza Rice ... a blond Condoleezza." Secretary Clinton said during her visit that the Obama administration was helping to blunt criticism of the US by leftist leaders like Hugo Chavez.

  Well...  
 
What did she say?
 
  by: jamesmc   03/08/2010 12:25 PM     
  From the source  
 
"Clinton said the Obama administration´s policies towards the region were helping blunt the criticism of the United States by leftist leaders like Chavez."
Of course, that´s Clinton being paraphrased. If that was indeed what she said, I question the statement as rather provoking.

However, other sources have her talking primarily about his actions on the press and various industries.
""President (Hugo) Chávez is trying to stifle the press in Venezuela. If you say any negative about him, he tries to shut you down. That is not the way a democracy operates"
http://english.eluniversal.com/...

"Clinton also called Wednesday for Venezuela "to restore freedom of the press, to restore private property and return to a free market economy."

Sounds like the way democracy works in the US.

  Earthquake Weapon and Hugo  
 
Hugh is a great leader. The first leader to tell the world about the U.S. earthquake weapon that it has been used on Haiti, Chile and more recently Turkey.

 
  by: grayxray   03/08/2010 04:55 PM     
  First of All  
 
It´s "Venezuelan" not "Venezuealan".

And second, I love how a US polititian who´s never being in Venezuela starts talking bs about opression of speech, there´s no such thing here, If Cahvez is guilty of anything is letting ppl run wildly free.
 
  by: jhax   03/08/2010 08:26 PM     
  Hugo is a Great Leader  
 
Yes Jhax,

You are spot on. And we can only hope Hugo´s dream of a world without the u.s. is in the future.
 
  by: grayxray   03/08/2010 08:36 PM     
  @grayxray  
 
Not the US, but the opression it has over South America.

US don´t hate Cahvez because of his "non-freedom" crap that they feed you, it´s because little Hugo is making them lose $$.

Venenezuela has a high reserve of iron, but we didn´t make our own tubes. instead we sold the iron to the US for 1cent and the US sold us back the tubes for 100$. This is not the only example.

So the 1st thing Cahvez did when he became president was "Hey if we have the mats to do out stuff, why waste money having the US do them? We´ll do it ourselves" and that my friend sent the US on an endless rampage to diminish his name.

If Hugo´s ultimate goal is accomplished (The creation of a main South American Bank with its own currenty) the US will greatly lose their economic power here.
 
  by: jhax   03/08/2010 08:44 PM     
  Hugo  
 
Jhax,

I disagree, the u.s. needs to be eliminated from the world and hopefully Hugo, along with his Russian friends and China can speed that process.

Power to the people!

 
  by: grayxray   03/08/2010 08:49 PM     
  @ grayxray  
 
I don´t like our government either but to kill all of US is nuts. just because some suites in office or in some secret legion of doom bunker are a couple of douche bags doesn´t mean all americans are bad people. if you believe in power to the people why would you support the other 2 super powers of the world.

the day that the chinese ruskies and venezuealans drop foot over here is the day i´m taking off for the mountains.

WOLVERINES!

  by: captainJane     03/09/2010 01:20 AM     
  chavez is an idiot...  
 
so, how does a man such as this get power in venezuela... a country full of educated and capable people? I think it´s like norriega... or many of the other idiots that have power because there´s been an abuse of power... and people react and sometimes what they end up with, no matter how stupid, is better than what they had before. Cuba comes to mind.

Well, Mr. Troll, if the US HAS an earthquake weapon then it will be coming after your a$$. LOL
FYI, there is no such thing as an earthquake weapon.
 
  by: Lurker     03/09/2010 02:06 AM     
  I don´t think  
 
Hilary cares what Chavez thinks or says. It is probably a safe assumption to say," not many others do either."

  One Comment Really.  
 

If you are not a citizen of the United States, any and all comments towards my country don´t mean shit to me or anyone else of the country really. I don´t even know why you people that are in other countries pass bad judgment about us. It is true we are ignorant but only to outsiders. If you are not a citizen why should we care.

With that said I don´t pass judgment on your country. Disrespectful to be telling another country what they should or should not do. It´s none of my business. However, there is obviously times that I would care. Natural disasters, genocide, civil wars, bad dictators etc.

But that is my view and will always be my view.

See, that might make sense if the United States didn´t butt into affairs which do not concern it. But they do. The world butts back.

I´m glad you can say so as if you know personally.

  Kill Everybody?  
 
Devil Duck
I never said kill everybody or kill anyone. Just eliminate the u.s. from the world and maybe a gringo or yankee or two.

The u.s. is the most oppressive country in the world and they think they own the world. Their mouth piece president did not fool me once. He is in bed with the capitalists, and always was.

The u.s. is mostly full of fat, smelly, unwashed stupid people. It offers nothing to the world except war, death and oppression.
 
  by: grayxray   03/09/2010 06:02 PM     
  @grayxray  
 
Well, interesting, I share some of your sentiments, however I notice a few things. You speak like an American, if not American then certainly a western nation. Would be interesting to know what country you originate from. Secondly, I think I smell pretty good, and I´ve had no problem with American women being smelly...so I´m sorry if your experiences with American women differ.

your an idiot

you say with the help of chavez russia and china, the US should be eliminated and than you say that you didn´t mean to kill anybody. how else would the most populated country and one of the highest armed country and a country ran by a putz like yourself take down america without killing people.

the US is the most oppressive nation on the planet? yeah that´s bullshit. if were so oppressive how come i can call you a dumb uneducated turd nugget and not get scolded for it? it is becoming more sinister though i will give you that. and obama is in bed with the capitalist? uh actually he´s not he pretty much owns most of the industry in the country so he´s not really a capitalist.

Americans are all fat and unwashed? why don´t you come over to where i live and i´ll show you how "fat" i am when i put your teeth through the back of your head and than i´ll drag you over to the bathroom and you can watch me wash your commie pinko blood off my hands.

You live in Florida which is full of Republican scum. No wonder you feel the way you feel. Have you beat up any people of color today?
 
  by: grayxray   03/10/2010 04:37 PM     
  @ grayxray  
 
surprise your wrong again dumb ass

and no i haven´t beat up anyone of color and if your of color you´d be the first. where are YOU from is the real question? why do you hide it so and yell death to america and "power to the people"s republic of china. could it be your a coward? probably.

way to be anti-oppressive by saying you hope thousands of people from a certain part of the world die.

but hey sometimes genocide could be good. so long as it involves people like you and people who think like you and those who are selfish and greedy.

  Devil Duck wants me to Die  
 
Well Devil Duck, I guess we will never be friends. I don´t wish anybody to die, I just want the u.s. to go away so the world can be at peace.
 
  by: grayxray   03/10/2010 10:27 PM     
  wow  
 
some of you kids really are just that a bunch of kids playing politics with what you heard on CNN never mind Fox.

Chavez has no desire to eliminate America if he did who would he sell all that oil he´s sitting on to for Christ sake ?

Look there´s a preview to an interview with the guy carried out by Cindy Sheehan (remember her ) on the Venezuelan governments web site http://www.venezuelanalysis.com/...

The title of the article may just help you understand what Chavez is and what he isn´t ....

as for Clinton practically all the main players in Washington dealing with Latin America under Obama are the same douchbags who were there when the coup was organized the "National Endowment for Democracy" (nice name eh!) basically spends millions of your tax payers dollars every year trying and failing badly to destabilize his government and slur him in the press, why because the last thing the US wants is a Latin American country standing on it´s own two feet without total control of it´s natural reserves by US and European corporations .Nothing to do with human rights , or the press or the things Chavez says it´s as simple as that , hardly rocket science .


here´s the last paragraph from the interview


With President Morales standing by his side and nodding vigorously, President Chavez said: “We are NOT anti-American, we ARE anti-Imperialism.”

 
  by: Hugo Chavez     03/12/2010 09:45 AM     
  Hugo and the u.s.  
 
Hugo

I disagree. He says he dreams of a world without the u.s. That seems like elimination to me.

He is a great leader who sees the u.s. for what it really is and knows such a abomonation of a country must simple go away.
