If Hugo Chavez was a RW'er...
Edited on Fri Feb-03-06 03:50 PM by ck4829
What would Pat Robertson, Donald Rumsfeld, Fakes News, and just about the entire American RW be saying right about him?

4. He couldn't be a right winger because he's of the wrong class.
His own community would ostracize him. You can be sure that our RW is plotting to replace him with a dictator of their choosing.

IF Chavez was RW, what would the other side be saying about him?

8. Kim doesn't have oil...
I think the post refers to people who are right wing and doing our bidding.

See Uzbekistan leader, for an example.

11. They will go with any corrupt sellout that will play ball.
Dictator or Elected, Totalitarian Fascist to Communist or Socialist. As long as you play the corrupt game, its cool. But, dont play along and they will try to crush you.
