Obama's role models: Chavez, Hitler, Putin, Bloomberg
Irene just sent me a link. I thought I had seen a bottoming out of the leftist assault on our nation, but there is now a bill before Congress to repeal the 22d Amendment. That is, term limits, which were put into place because of FDR's Reich had been so brutal.
Chavez: Hugo Chávez's ambition to lead Venezuela for decades to come hung in the balance last night as the country voted in a constitutional referendum that could abolish presidential term limits, paving the way for his indefinite re-election.Opinion polls gave him a slight edge after a controversial campaign that pitted student protesters against police and turned the state into a "red machine" to deliver a yes vote.
HITLER: After Hitler gained power because others figured he would just flop and they could not come up with a coalition, he pushed through the legislature a bill for an unlimited term. He did away with his opposition, soon thereafter.PUTIN: Mr Putin became prime minister this year after being obliged under the constitution to step down after two consecutive presidential terms. He was succeeded as president by Mr Medvedev. Anaylsts say it has always been assumed that Mr Putin may return after Mr Medvedev has completed one term. But the apparent rush to get this constitutional amendment through is being seen by some as a sign that Mr Putin is in a hurry and may return much sooner.Bllomberg: ...after a spirited, emotional and at times raucous debate, the New York City Council voted, 29 to 22, on Thursday afternoon to extend term limits, allowing Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg [Gene - and the council itself!] to seek re-election next year and undoing the result of two voter referendums that had imposed a limit of two four-year terms.
