Obama’s buddy and the Hollywood left’s favorite dictator seizes another private business…
Why? Cause he didn’t like the “conditions” that the Hilton put on a government meeting that was to be held at the hotel.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has said he seized the landmark Hilton hotel on Margarita Island because its owners dared to impose conditions on its use by his government to host a summit there last month.
“To hold the conference we had to ask for permission… and the owners tried to impose conditions on the revolutionary government. No way,” said Chavez.
“So I said, ‘Let’s expropriate it.’ And now it’s been expropriated.”
Venezuela’s Minister of Tourism, Pedro Morejon, on Wednesday said the Hilton and its facilities were in an “advanced state of disrepair” and that the government would refurbish them.
“We’re going to socialize the hotel,” the minister told VTV television, adding that its future facilities would include a “training center for tourism.”
