Chavez Attacks Obama in Copenhagen, as Louisiana is Named Happiest State

By Sam Brand Posted Dec 18th 2009 11:34AM

Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez took a nasty jab at President Obama on the last day of the Copenhagen climate talks. The final hour is always the best time for a coward to land a sucker shot. In other news, Louisiana was named the happiest state in the union. Yeah, shocked us too. And former 'America's Next Top Model' finalist Nik Pace is asking for a lot of money from her baby's famous daddy. Learn about all this and more in What You're Searching For Today...

Nik Pace – Making babies is an expensive thing to do. New York Jets wide receiver Braylon Edwards knew that when he knocked up 'America's Next Top Model' finalist Nik Pace. That's why he filed for paternity in the state of Georgia when Pace gave birth to their child in August, according to the New York Post. But Pace wants more dough than the traditionally stingy child support laws of Georgia would allow. She's now suing the footballer, who makes about $5 million a year, in less stingy New York for $70,000 a month.

Happiest States in America – According to a new study that surveyed how satisfied people are with their lives, the happiest state in the US is... Louisiana? Researchers from University of Warwick in England and Hamilton College in the US polled 1.3 million people across the country between 2005 and 2008 to determine the results. Following Louisiana are Hawaii, Florida, Tennessee and Arizona. The least happy state is New York.

Obama Copenhagen Speech – The Wall Street Journal says President Obama's 8-minute speech at the Copenhagen climate conference "thrilled nobody" Friday morning. According to Newsweek's The Gaggle, the speech "went over decently – it was neither stellar nor awful." Big mouth Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez didn't agree. He took to the podium on the final day of the summit to say, "It still smells like sulfur in the world." He continued, "The Nobel Prize of War just finished saying here that he is here to act. Well, show it sir. Don't leave by the back door."

I'm not at all shocked that Louisiana is the "happiest" state. I live in Louisiana and the people are friendly, the climate is good and the food is better than anywhere in the world and we don't take ourselves too seriously.

Chavez is no coward otherwise he would have taken the bribes offered by the jackals and ducked the assassination attempts by the CIA agents that have infiltrated every country in the world. He could simply be rich and corrupt but instead he chose to stand up for the people who have the least, the people that America's agents keep pushing back down to the bottom, so they can continue to exploit them for profit and power.

Roger, lay off the meth man.. it fries your brain. If Obama and the CIA wanted Chavez dead he would be dead. I mean how hard would it be to have his jet disappear over the atlantic? I hope your post was in jest, if not you have a serious case of mental problems.

roger you might want to change your name to richard head.if you love chavez so much why don't you move from the greatest country on earth to shack up with chavez?

By William J Quinn

He is a thug.

By BothPartiesSuck

Roger, I am willing to bet that you did not support a damn thing that this megalomaniac Chavez was saying when he attacked our previous administration. But now, you magically think that he cares about anyone but himself? All of a sudden he is a Champion of the Little People? You need to change your medication dosages, as they are clearly affecting your ability to possess rational thought.

By Brian

Apparently Obama can't fool ALL the people ALL the time. Especially other Narcissists like himself.

By Elaine

Louisiana, the happiest state? Probably due to the amount of alchohol consumed per capita. Pair that with the archaic laws and anything goes attitudes and you get "happiness".

By Cathy

I don't consume alcohol and I love living in Louisiana. Don't judge the whole state by a few unruly areas.

Just another day with the biggest joke in history the great Obuma

Pres Obamacare Smells Like ObamaSulfur, Yikes.

By Georgeann

I'm glade they didn't agree. This could really hurt the poor people in this country. Obama can't run this country. He does nothing but lie just like his followers. Global Warming is nothing but a big lie. This world is going to burn when the time is right and not before it's time and there will be nothing no one can do about!!! Wake-up......STUPID!!!

Mr.LaFontaine,,,,,said it all,,,,"Perfectly,,,,Perfectly",,,,simply nothing nore to add....

By jccalcourt

Seems like a lot of lips are falling off Obama's a** lately.............

By c. morris

The rest of the story about Chavez should have read "And obama responds by kissing his ass" which is what this socialist half breed clown has done since day one.

By EBOLOO

Just CRRRAZZZZY!

The global warming movement is a lot like the Wizard of Oz. dorothy and her oddball friends are told to follow the "green" brick road to see the wizard of Oz in order to stop global warming only to find out that he's just a phoney hiding behind a big green curtain and a loudspeaker. Some will believe because the great wizard say's it is so, but the rest of us have seen behind the curtain only to find an ordinary man with a bunch of switches, levers, smoke and mirrors, creating a false sense of doom and gloom. Isn't that right, Al?

Loved your fantasy Roger. Chavez has done away with just about every civil right in the country and regularly kills off those who speak against him. There is irony that the Bush administration (maybe for our own interests) supported the students and the students counted on the US for help against the repressive regime of Hugo Chavez, President for Life. Chavez correctly assumes the US political left wing will support him even if it means supporting a fascist. All fascists start out from the left wing, historically. Chavez did, Mussolini did, Hitler did and Obama is follwing that "I know better than the people" path. They all nationalized private industry (auto, banking, health for Obama's fascist start)
