GOP Funds Ahmadinejad-Chavez Speaking Tour

by Scott Ott for ScrappleFace · 146 Comments · · Print This Story Print This Story

(2006-09-21) — The Republican National Committee (RNC) today offered to fund a coast-to-coast U.S. speaking tour featuring Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, in the weeks leading up to November’s Congressional elections.

The offer comes in the wake of two days of public remarks by the two foreign leaders before the United Nations, the Council on Foreign Relations and U.S. news media. Their diplomatic pronouncements included…
- denying the Holocaust,
- calling the U.S. president “the devil“,
- praying at the U.N. for the return of Islam’s fabled 12th Imam,
- praising Cuban dictator Fidel Castro,
- insisting any nation has the right to develop nuclear technology,
- portraying the United States as the locus of evil in the modern world, and
- plugging Noam Chomsky’s book “Hegemony or Survival: America’s Quest for Global Dominance.”

“President Bush can talk about his national security plan and foreign policy all day long,” said an unnamed RNC spokesman, “But no one makes a more compelling case than the duo of Mahmoud and Hugo. We want to make sure every American has an opportunity to hear these important world leaders.”

The Republican source said sponsoring the pre-election Ahmadinejad-Chavez speaking tour was also a way of “reaching across the aisle to help our colleagues in the Democrat party to get their message out, so the American voter can make an informed decision.”

    Fits right in with the Dean-Pelosi-Kerry message. Let’s hope Mahmoud and Hugo can beat that infringement suit from MoveOn.org in time to get their show on the road.

    Seems like a fine idea to me! That last paragraph says it all! I mean, these guys have the talking points down cold! Who better could show the American people exactly what the significance of the choice they are about to make is! Scott, I thought you were into satire? Have you been hangin’ out with Karl Rove?!?

    I agree, if the LLL/MSM do not “get it” now, they never will.

    The gauntlet has been thrown down.

    Like never before, there is an urgency in the air.

    It is a mistake to continue to refer to these incidents of the last few days as “comic book diplomacy”-there’s nothing funny about what has transpired at the UN. Nothing.

    If they can get a “third stooge”, they can tour as the “New Millenium Three Stooges”! All they need is a fat “Curley”type.

    An excellent debunking of the more salient points being made here by 9/11 conspiracy kooks regarding the Pentagon and Flight 77.

    I’m always fascinated how left-wing, Bush-hating kooks can weave such plausible conspiracy theories only to have them so expertly exploded in their faces by real science and facts. Yet the kooks still continue to believe. Pathetic.

    No doubt Hugo Chavez and Ahmadaboutjihad believe them, too.

    Infant mortality in Venezuela stands at over 22 deaths per 1000 births, a rate that places Venezuela behind Mexico, Panama, Colombia and many other countries of its region; for comparision the infant death rate is about eight times as high as Sweden.

    Child malnutrition (for children under age
    five) stands at about 17 percent of the population classified as stunted or wasted, which are the official United Nations categories for malnutrition. Areas more affected by the stunting and wasting include some of the poorest areas: Amacuro Delta (30%) and Amazonas (24%).

    According to the United Nations, the fraction of population without adequate sanitation is 32 percent, with a majority of people in many rural areas lacking in this basic commodity.

    Travellers to Venezuela are advised to obtain vaccinations for a variety of diseases including typhoid, yellow fever, cholera, hepatitis A, hepatitis B and hepatitis D.

    In a cholera epidemic of contemporary times in the Orinoco Delta, Venezuela’s political leaders were accused of racial profiling of their own indigeneous people to deflect blame from the country’s institutions, thereby aggravating the epicemic.

    Visitors to Venezuela are advised to drink only bottled water, due to the prevalence of cross contamination of drinking water with untreated sewage.

    There are approximately 5,000,000 people in Venezuela living without access to safe drinking water, resulting in a percentage of population ranking of Venezuela among the poorest in South America. As of the year 1999 there were an estimated 110,000 people in Venezuela living with HIV.

Monkeyface “Peace and Love for Humanity” Ahmadinejad is being shown speaking spewing laughable [deleted] at the UN. And yesterday’s broadcast of Hugo “The Devil” Chavez. Although when I look in my blog crystal ball, I see a great post coming from someone like Wuzzadem or Iowahawk thanks to this Hate America Fest. Not to mention Scrappleface’s contribution. So maybe it’s not such a bad thing. (I really wish I had a mouse for this laptop, ’cause I’m itching to do some photoshops but I don’t feel like messing with the PC. Maybe later today.)

I said yesterday that a “smart” press “would bury” the Chavez and Ahmadinejad stories…but I never said they “should.” Scrappleface understands. [...]

    Ms RightWing, thanks for the info on Venezuela. Unfortunately that information will only bounce off the typical moonbat’s brain like BBs off the Rock of Gibraltor since they already have it fixed in their mind THAT VENEZUELA’S PROBLEMS ARE ALL BU$HITLER’S FAULT!

    I always enjoy it when some lib tries to blame the state of Fidel Castro’s utopia on America because of the embargo we have in place. Yeah, like Cuba can’t kind find some other country in the world to trade with? Not everybody likes Cuban cigars and sugar cane the way American’s do, though, SO IT’S ALL AMERIKKKA’S FAULT!

    JL3. If the day ever comes in our lifetime where the anti-Christ tries to set up shop, Danny Glover and the other mindless leftist drones like him will be those worshipping sycophants in the front row. How some tinplated, commie thug can have any legitimacy with any self-respecting American is one of those great … Unsolved Mysteries.

  • 44 Godfrey // Sep 21, 2006 at 1:51 pm

    JL3: That’s the thing about America: anyone can say anything.

    It’s worth noting what UN Ambassador Bolton said about Chavez’ little tantrum, something to the effect that while Chavez has the right to express his opinion he refuses to allow Venezuelan citizens the same luxury.

    I have no problem with Chavez being here and saying whatever he wants. What galls me to no end is that some Americans would give him a standing ovation.

    Have these people lost all sense of reality?

    Maggie, re the Garage Sale $$$$$

    Hmmm…well, let’s just say that this was the most interesting sale that I have ever held. First, it was HOT and humid. I sweated like crazy and went in and out of the house (to air conditioning) and finally ended up on my deathbed Sunday night. I am just now feeling sort of like a human. Fever, cough, sinus, pain…misery.

    But I digress. 80% of the people who came to our sale were men. Now I have nothing against men, but they don’t usually buy much in the way of curtains, furniture, clothing, etc. They want tools, hunting and fishing equipment and man stuff. We didn’t have much of that. Anyway, between the 4 families, most of our stuff was priced at 5, 10, and 25 cents and so the $500 that we made moved a boatload of stuff. However, we had an oceanliner load of stuff and so by Saturday at 11 am, it looked as if we had sold nothing. No furniture, save the pool table, had moved and I wanted that entertainment center gone! I had $10 on it and still didn’t sell it. Soooo, we hit on a brilliant idea. We put a sign across our big front sign that said, “ALL FREE”.

    It was like God contacted all of the people in OKC who were needy because all of a sudden we were covered up. And the weird thing was that none of them realized that it was a free sale. They were shocked when we told them to take what they needed. We had one family who had moved up here from Texas and could only bring with them what they could carry in a small U-Haul trailer. They were destitute and ended up taking the entertainment center, a table and 4 chairs, a bookcase with books, a mirror and some clothes. We delivered the furniture to their trailer and it broke my heart to see how they were living. I have decided to get together a box of groceries for them.

    It was so cool to see the smiles and the excitement on these peoples’ faces. Some tried to pay us, but we said, “No”. By 5 pm on Saturday, my front yard (and we are on 5 acres) was picked clean with the exception of a couple of boxes of clothes. I did sell my apple butter and loaves of bread the previous day and sold most of that. Anyway, it was a pretty neat garage sale. We made money and helped some people at the same time.

  • 47 Maggie // Sep 21, 2006 at 2:12 pm

    Maybe the DemDonks ought to nominate Hugo Chavez to run at the top of their ticket for 2008. Chavez certainly has their talking points down and he’s far more charismatic than John Francois Kerry, sHrillary, Edwards, Gore, ad nauseam.

    Dims might even get SOTUS to exercise a little judicial activism to change the presidential requirements of a U.S. President having to be American-born.

    Sorry Charlie Rangle (D-Moon) and Nancy Pelosi (D-Moon), your muted criticisms of “thug” (Pelosi’s description if you can believe it!) Hugo Chavez are a day late and a dollar short. Chavez merely echoed the lies that you people have already spewed about President Bush and America.

  • 59 Darthmeister // Sep 21, 2006 at 7:41 pm

    Godfey, I admire your willingness to give the other side a break. Maybe I’m being too partisan but I can’t help but think that Pelosi (D-Moon) and Rangel (D-Moon) were merely in CYA mode. I’m willing to bet a ten spot that they spent the first twenty-four hours doing focus group testing and sending up trial balloons at the various left-wing blogsites and finally figured out that they would be far better off mildly castigating (Rangel was far more solicitous than Pelosi) Thug Hugo rather than defending him. Which is quite remarkable since most of the nutwing liberal bloggers are swooning over Chavez’s bravery in “speaking truth to power.” Maybe Pelosi has been hit with a clue stick enough times to know she can’t afford to die on hill Hugo.

    Now Harkins (D-Moon) apparently didn’t get the talking points because he basically defended Thug Hugo’s comments and then went on his own rant!

    But the elephant that’s in the room on this one is the undeniable fact Hugo Chavez’s rant against President Bush is little different in substance than the venomous rants the DemDonks have been engaging in against the President since early 2004. Sure Chavez was more inflammatory, but what’s the difference between calling Bush “the devil” as opposed to being a “Nazi fascist” and Hitler? I’m just surprised Chavez didn’t trot out the UBL cum Democrat rant about Bush reading a book about a goat to children on 9/11. Now that would have completed the circle regarding this unholy troika of Chavez/UBL/DemDonks.

  • 60 da Bunny // Sep 21, 2006 at 9:59 pm

    Rangel, Pelosi, the LSM, et al have done nothing BUT attack President Bush, both politically AND personally, and their phony “outrage” over Chavez’ comments is laughable! People the world over hear nothing but the constant drumbeat of criticism directed at Bush, Cheney, the administration, and the Republican-controlled Congress, and ALL during a time of war, no less. What’s the big surprise that fools like Chavez and “Ahmadhimmicrat” would come here, boldly step up to the UN podium, and blast away at our President? The LSM/leftist loons DO IT EVERY DAY! Give it up “Elmer Fudd Rangel” and “San Fran Nan.”

    Insurgents, not terrorists - that’s why they plant bombs in innocent’s cars and blow them up later. Wonder if it will ever reach US airwaves?

    It would be amusing to see what would happen to Nancy Pelosi if she called Chavez a thug if she were in the middle of Venezuela.

  • 74 Darthmeister // Sep 22, 2006 at 8:52 am

    #73. That would be interesting! Five years from now: Nancy who?

    Danny Glover: Another Commie whore.
    Harry Bellafonte: Ditto …. Day oh!

    You have think that the DemDonks are seething mad that Chavez and Ahmadaboutjihad had used their talking points before the UN. I mean, how can the Dimmocritters now follow up with the same bash-Bush/blame-America talking points without intelligent Americans going, “Gee, isn’t that what that little commie dictator thug from Venezuela and that Islamofascist Iranian nutbag president said just a couple of weeks ago?”

    Buwahahahahaha. KKKarl Rove is an evil genius!

  • 75 Darthmeister // Sep 22, 2006 at 9:01 am

    Given how the commie thug Hugo Chavez ripped into President Bush as well as denounced the “illegal and immoral war in Iraq”, by Demoncrap definition would that make Chavez a good American patriot?

  • 78 JamesonLewis3rd // Sep 22, 2006 at 9:35 am

    I agree-Chavez and Ahmadinejad have highjacked the LLL bandwagon.
    I was thinking that this was probably due to the heavy propagandizing by the MSM-which they bought into-which gives the impression that the citizens of the USA actually believe and appreciate such anti-American rhetoric.
    The MSM is what the rest of the world sees and they assume this reflects how the citizens of the USA think and feel, so it must be okay to talk smack about us.
    Chavez’s reference to Katrina, I think, demonstrates this quite well. We here in the USA all know that the local and state officials played hot-potato with their responsibility in that situation; finally tossing it to President Bush, by which time the catastrophe was in an aggravated state through no fault of his.
    The MSM blamed Bush (out of motivations we know and recognize but the rest of the world does not understand) and those out of the loop took it as fact.
    I attribute the impression that it’s okay to spew hate-filled clichés toward our president here on our own precious soil directly to the MSM. They (Chavez, Ahmadinejad, et al) don’t seem to understand that such vitriol aimed at our Top Executive by outsiders is aimed at each and every one of us and we take it personal.
    Well, at least, I do-dissent amongst ourselves is one thing and we tolerate it, ridicule from megalomaniacal demagogues is another and is unacceptable.

  • 79 GnuCarSmell // Sep 22, 2006 at 11:19 am

    These two clowns may be nuts, but they are shrewd enough to understand one thing: the best way to show contempt for America is to impersonate a Democrat. That said, Chavez deserves credit for the ’stench of sulphur’ remark. That was original.

  • 80 JamesonLewis3rd // Sep 22, 2006 at 11:25 am

    I know most everyone here understands what I was talking about above-that I’m “preaching to the choir”-I just need to vent, sometimes.

    If you’re interested, here’s a few details from the Media Research Intitute’s “Free Market Project” from March 2006.

    Hey!
    Don’t blame me! I didn’t put Chavez up to it. I’m a Mobil/Exxon man myself.

  • 82 conserve-a-tip // Sep 22, 2006 at 1:02 pm

    I was working around the house yesterday and was watching Chavez and his antics and then the response by Charlie Rangel and just chuckled at this picture that my brain brought up. It was one of a father telling his wife, unaware that his kids are watching, that he hates his boss, that his boss is a stupid alcolholic and that he’s a tightwad that doesn’t pay enough, all the while making fun of how his boss walks and talks. He then takes his family to a company picnic and when he shakes hands with the boss and gushes over him, his little kids look up and say, “But Dad, you’re shaking hands with a stupid alcoholic who walks and talks funny and is a tightwad.” The DNC is the mortified dad who is responding to their Chavez and Ahm-a-durn-nut-job kids with, “You don’t talk about my boss that way at my company picnic! Shame on you.”

    By that token, shouldn’t Iran erect a statue of Jimmy Carter?

    You might be right. Islam is, after all, a religion of piece…and the head’s as good a piece as any.

    Re: #94/95:

    It’s not your parents’ communism down there. South America is tending toward something a bit unique: religious socialism, or more accurately a form of Christian socialism. The heavily Catholic region is also heavily left-leaning and socialist. With the exception of Chile the whole region is a political and economic mess, Venezuela included.

    But…what about Black folks?
