Talk about going after the Country Club Set! The Totalitarian Progressive Tyrant Hugo Chavez is now planning to shut down Golf Courses. He claims Golf is not areal sport and that it’s a bourgeois activity. My question is why does this nut job care about Golf?
CARACAS, Venezuela — Every day, Pascual Cicenia plays golf on an emerald course that is 18 holes of tropical heaven in the middle of this chaotic city. He doesn’t take it for granted, he said, especially now that President Hugo Chávez has disparaged the sport as an elitist endeavor with few friends in his populist government.
“You can get into the golf course in about five minutes. You can get in a round of golf just about every day,” gushed Cicenia, 23, taking a break last week as he practiced his 155-yard drives. “It’s probably why he wants to take it away.”
Chávez did not directly vilify this course, the Caracas Country Club, Venezuela’s most exclusive and a citadel of the country’s wealthiest families. But in a televised outburst against golf, Chávez criticized the sport as “bourgeois,” mocked golfers as lazy and said that “there is no justification for a golf course in the middle of a city.”
Read the rest.
Like a typical Progressive, Hugo Chavez seeks to impose his view on others. He hates Golf, so therefore Venezuelan golfers must suffer. This is what happens when Progressivism has a stranglehold on a nation. People can’t even play Golf, it just doesn’t cease with these Leftists.
Make no mistake, if we don’t defeat American Progressives, America will be like Venezuela. It’s no coincidence that Obama likes this man.
