Red State and Hot Air have the story.
Hugo Chavez of course sponsors terrorism in Columbia, but Senator Obama is keeping their playdate on his Mad Man World Tour because he meets Senator Obama’s bizarre Head of State exemption for terrorism enablers (see: Ahmadinejad, Mahmoud)
This isn’t exactly a huge shock or anything, but it is further confirmation of the type of people around the world that would love to see this country vote against John McCain and for Barack Obama this November.

Yep, Obama wins that coveted endorsement.
“We don’t mind–actually we like Mr. Obama. We hope he will (win) the election and I do believe he is like John Kennedy, great man with great principle, and he has a vision to change America to make it in a position to lead the world community but not with domination and arrogance,” Yousef said in response to a question about the group’s willingness to meet with either of the Democratic presidential candidates.
On the surface, it doesn’t make a ton of sense, considering Senator Obama’s public stance on Hamas (which is, of course, different from his church’s stance).
Perhaps Yousef thinks it’s odd that Obama will talk to some mad men and not others and assumes a President Obama will eventually follow President Carter’s footsteps.
