Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez takes over American oil rigs off his coast

Written by Joel Johannesen on Thursday June 24 2010 at 08:20 AM

Given all the support publicly offered to Hugo Chavez by left-wing Canadian and American politicians and left-wing columnists and Hollywood liberals and others, this story is all the more important to bring to image light.  But it’s barely reported in the media.  For some odd reason, I couldn’t find it at the state-owned, socialism-reliant CBC, for example. 

Venezuela to nationalize U.S. firm’s oil rigs

CARACAS (Reuters) – Venezuela will nationalize a fleet of oil rigs belonging to U.S. company Helmerich and Payne, the latest takeover in a push to socialism as President Hugo Chavez struggles with lower oil output and a recession.

A former soldier inspired by Cuba’s Fidel Castro, Chavez has made energy nationalization the linchpin in his ‘revolution’. He has also taken over assets in telecommunications, power, steel and banking. ...

Rosie O’Donnell and several other socialists, Democrats, Jack Layton and most of his you’ve got to be kidding party minions like Libby Davies, several Liberals, and progressives generally would all applaud this action by their global socialist partner, Hugo Chavez, many of whom rave about him all day long.  If you don’t believe me, you should ask them.  The media should ask them.  They won’t, because they’re afraid of the answer and how it would play out in the public.  Yeah.  This is a challenge to the media.  Ask them.  I dare you. 

Actually, for a start, print the story.  Stick it on your teleprompter and read it.  See how it plays.  Use the word “socialist”.  And “takeover”.
