Breaking News: Hugo Chavez is still dead "After Franco's death, Chevy Chase, reader of the news on NBC's Saturday Night's comedic news segment Weekend Update, announced the dictator's death and read a quotation from Richard Nixon: "General Franco was a loyal friend and ally of the United States. He earned worldwide respect for Spain through firmness and fairness."... As an ironic counterpoint to this, a picture was displayed behind Chase, showing Franco giving the fascist salute alongside Adolf Hitler"
"Professor Charles Ogletree served on the president’s black advisory council" Video here.
UPDATE: Ahmadinejad’s claim that Chávez will be resurrected with Jesus ‘went too far’ "The reappearance of Mahdi is anticipated by believers in a manner comparable to that with which Christians anticipate the second coming of Jesus. Shia Muslims believe both will come on the resurrection day."
From the UK: How typical of the Left to idolise a despot who gloried in attacking America and Britain "

I'd have much preferred to select the print version of this article to get rid of the trashy links that come with it, but that did not seem possible. TD

This article is of such import that TW will post it elsewhere as a stand-alone feature. I use it here as to show you that America is not far from being a third-world country with third-world economics and a congress containing far too many members who honor third-world rulers and want our president to emulate them.
