Economic socialism by its very definition is plundering.

Government seizure and control of private enterprise=plundering.

Oil companies,radio/TV stations,gold mines,private property...all seized in the name of protecting them from plunder.....oh the irony.

Sad you dont realize these folks Obama is asskissing mistake kindness for weakness and will exploit it to the full extent.

Which seems to be an ongoing theme with this president

It was a "book" from Chavez, so I wonder if it was all colored in yet.

Obama needs to take knee pads to these conferences. He seems to be on his knees, more than on his feet when meeting these despots.
It makes him look very weak. Tyrants are known to be strong in their ideals ie Putin, Chavez and Castro. Obama looks like a school boy being bullied in the school yard.

It definitely seems like he is being out-positioned by all of them.

Atleast this time he didn't get down and give him a BJ like he did with the Saudi.

Spare me the loser free-market fundamentalism. (Where's my bailout?) It's Venezuela's oil, not Exxon's. The TV station sponsored a coup against Chavez in 2002. If NBC had sponsored a coup against Bush they would have bombed the station and executed and tortured the network's employees. All Chavez did was fail to renew their license. It's funny how all the Chavez-haters never mention a right-wing thug like Uribe in Columbia, who murders trade unionists.
