Michael Savage on Obama-Chavez "Hand Bump" - Our Values are being Raped!

April 20, 2009 - President Obama said Sunday that his several brief meetings with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez were good steps and that positive Cuban and Venezuelan responses to his overtures were repudiations of the Bush administration's approach to diplomacy.

Completing his four-day Latin American visit in Trinidad, Mr. Obama rebutted critics who said he hurt the U.S. by seeking out Mr. Chavez and receiving a U.S.-bashing book from him.

The gesture shot the little-known book - "Las Venas Abiertas de America Latina" or "The Open Veins of Latin America," by Eduardo Galeano - to No. 2 on Amazon.com's list Sunday night.

"Venezuela is a country whose defense budget is probably one-six-hundredth of the United States'. They own Citgo. It's unlikely that as a consequence of me shaking hands or having a polite conversation with Mr. Chavez, we are endangering the strategic interest of the United States," Mr. Obama said at a press conference wrapping up his trip.

"You would be hard-pressed to paint a scenario in which U.S. interests would be damaged as a consequence of us having a more constructive relationship with Venezuela," he said.

Better watch out Michael they banned you in England. Like who gives a shit about England or would even want to go to the pasty ass place. But back to talk radio. Obama has'nt got around to banning you here yet but it's on the way. Sad day for the country when 66,000,000 liberal idiots take over our country.

Great!! At last & at least there's one great, nice, humane & peace loving U.S President. I hope there'll be more like him in future. Mr. President Obama, we love you. Please continue your good deeds.

Hey.. Obama creating civil communication, is way better than Bush's thrashing of our international reputation. Bush put us in danger by making the world hate us.

Making peace keeps us safe, What do you want Obama to do? Give world leaders the cold idiot shoulder like Bush did. The Illuminati spoiled Brat child

Obama has charisma,big smile, and listens...maybe he can use this to simmer down hate for the USA.Bush gave thousands to Egyptian President and hid Bin Laden.

Bush is the lier
