I simply had to get all of that in the subject line. The complete craptastic absurdity of Chevez is somewhere between making you roll over on your ass laughing, and being concerned that the man is batsh*t insane. Note: Insane. Not stupid. Chavez uses fights like this to gain support back in Venezuela, where he intends to dissolve term limits and rules by decree.
Chavez, who railed against imperialism and capitalism, named banks Santander and BBVA as possible targets, saying the OPEC nation did not need Spanish business.
“The king lost it,” Chavez said at a late-night political rally. “He should say, ‘… I, the king, confess, I was beside myself, I made a mistake.”‘
Yeah, sure…
If you haven’t been following this, Spain’s King told Chavez to “shut up” when the Venezuelan crazy man kept interrupting a speech by Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, repeatedly referring to Prime Minister Zapatero has a “fascist”. Ironic.
