Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez called Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice illiterate and suggested in a speech last week that she had sexual dreams about him, prompting outrage among Venezuelan women's groups, which denounced his "obscene and lewd" remarks. In his Jan. 23 speech, Mr. Chavez said Miss Rice "keeps demonstrating complete illiteracy." "It seems that she dreams about me. I can invite her on a date with me to see what happens to her with me. She said that she was sad and depressed because of Chavez. Oh, daddy! She should forget me. What bad luck this lady has. I don't want to make that sacrifice for my nation," he said, according to Venezuelan reports.

I didn't realize this guy was this wacked out of his head. He is entering the realm of Kim Jong Il.
He's been there since the beginning. But he's one of Jimmy Carter's favorite dictators, so you never hear anything about it in the big world.
Maybe this will change now.
Of course Chavez is a favorite of Spain's Zapatero.
The MSM will have to work overtime to hide this story. What a drunk idiot.
Chavez is a hero on DU. Nice to see how much they care about women's equality.
Word to Chavez: Crack Kills.
I can't believe the Venezuelans aren't storming the Presidential Palace to get rid of this guy. They'd better do it soon, their window of opportunity is closing rapidly (if it hasn't already). We've all seen this movie before.
We're going to have to take out that skunk Chavez sooner or later, now is looking like a good time.
They've tried. He had some of them shot.
He has the support of poor. They were ignored by the political elite for decades. The opposition is to blame for his success. They have done nothing for the masses.
Folks forget ... diplomacy is merely using force to get what you want ... you start with words and end with bombs.
We're going to have to take out that skunk Chavez sooner or later, now is looking like a good time.

The US needs Venezuela to be stable for the Oil. As long as Oil is high nothing will be done to destabilise him.
All communists and socialists have are delusional, including the worthless quisling party in this country.
Just like the socialists of yesteryear admired uncle Joe.
He keeps trying to get Bush's attention. He shouldn't try so hard. He should be doing everything he can to blend into the wall paper.
The day Bush takes notice of him will be a bad day for him.
"No, I'm not a raving loon. Why do you ask?"
Basicly, Chavez is calling out the United States with his crude taunts. Chavez is daring the Bush administration to do something.
What a friggin NUT.
Everyone knows she dreams of Hobbes1
The US needs the long term stability that can only come from a freely elected democracy - not the short term "stability" of a whack job like Chavez.
Chavez is an ugly thug and a complete moron. Still, I bet seeing the likes of Senator Sheets Byrd condemn and insult Dr. Rice on the floor of the US Senate emboldened him to make remarks like this.
The biggest exporter of Oil to the US is Venezuela. A war, armed conflict or guerilla movement would stop these exports. This would cause the US economy huge damage.
Also Chavez has the support of the masses. The coup was very unpopular among the poor and would have been unsuccesful in the long term.
Noriega want's to know if ya want the upper or lower bunk ?
tick....tick....tick....tick....
Communist clap-trap. You sure you're on the right forum?
popular or not, a new CIA sponsored coup is coming!
Really classy guy. I wonder if he is a Democrat.
Just goes to show what cocaine can do to the brain.
If they had a unified opposition they could have a chance but they do not.
Venezeula, like other Latin American nations, has a huge poverty stricken population with a massive gap betwen richa dn poor. The political elite in the country have done little to gain their support.
I do not like Chavez but am willing to acknowledge that the poor like him because he actually tries to do thing sfor them. My main issue with him would be land expropriation rather than election fraud.
There are not many dictators that would allow a recall referendum.
Get a grip commie, this country never has and never will succumb to blackmail. Political, economic, monetary, whatever. I get a real kick out of all these geniuses who have predicted that some little zit on a fleas a$$ will "bring us to our knees". Go back to the karl marx message board.
Is this for real? Honestly? If so.... (sigh) if so.... well, I don't know what, but I feel sorry for his opposition in Venesuela.
If we can traipse to the other side of the globe to bring stability to that dump, there's no reason why we couldn't "stabilize" Venezuala.
The rest of the southern continent could use the eye opener.
They are not our friends.
Why do you want an armed conflict with them?
They are not blackmailing you!
They sell you oil, you buy it.
He's a certified socilaist, so yes, he's a Democrat.
Bttt! Well said!
Bttt! Well said!

How so?
I said invading Venezuela would be bad for the US.
He resorted to caling me a cOmmie as he had no decent arguement to use.
I think there are other ways of working on Venezuela.
Simply put it just is not the time to be messing around with one of the US's main oil suppliers.
Iran and the ME is a far bigger issue.
Chavez himself is clearly sexually attracted to Jimmy Carter and Fidel Castro.
And Mark Morford...
The world is full of anti-American blocs that need snuffing.
Me, I'd start with the closest ones.
Secure your flank before you advance.
(2) If he did, he wouldn't have been subjected to a recall election.
(3) He did not willingly hold the recall election - he did it under extreme duress after his attempt to suppress this constitutional process was met with rioting in the streets.
(4) We don't need to invade Venezuela - unlike Iraq, a rational, organized opposition still exists in the country despite Chavez' efforts.
Kill Chavez and a few dozen of his cronies and Venezuela is back on track.
But were they anti-american before the alleged CIA backed coup?
Chavez does not have the "support of the masses."
...........................................................
He has more support from the masses than wwhat is left of the un-united opposition. Most people in Venezuela are piss poor and he offers themhope so they support him.
The middle and upper classes hate him though.
As for the recall as far as I know NO ONE in the Whitehouse has called it fraudulent.
Venezuelan macho BS otherwise known as the VERY small dictator wannabe.
They are not "anti-american" now.
The criminals in power may be, but the country is not.
BTW, I did not engage you because I already know all your cliches before you use them.
That's why I think you do not belong here.
A troll perhaps??

Condi is too much a lady to treat this idiot as he deserves. Her gracious response to Boxer is an example.
I hope she runs in '08.
"suggested in a speech last week that she had sexual dreams about him,"
She may have dreams about him. But methinks it will involve a spotter and a shooter with a steady hand and a sniper rifle.
