Venezuela's Chavez Calls Presidential Rival a 'Low-Life Pig
My Fox DC ^ | 17 Feb 2012

CARACAS, Venezuela - Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez attacked the new opposition candidate for the country's highest office as a "low-life ... pig" in a defamatory speech broadcast on state radio and TV late Thursday.

As the country's election season gets underway, Chavez said of opposition candidate Henrique Capriles that, "you have a pig's tail, a pig's ears, and you snort like a pig," according to AFP.

On Sunday, the 39-year-old Capriles won an overwhelming victory in an opposition primary. He was quickly vilified in a campaign in Venezuela's state-run media, which insinuated he was a homosexual and a Zionist agent.

Earlier this week, Chavez, in power since 1999, also accused Capriles of being "the candidate of the bourgeois, of capitalism, of imperialism."

Capriles won more than 1.8 million votes out of more than three million votes cast, stunning the government, which predicted a far smaller turnout.

Although Chavez is still popular with many poor Venezuelans, the country is afflicted with the world's highest inflation rate and suffers from a wave of violence, shortages of basic foods and frequent power blackouts.

Of course, he is a “Zionist agent”, which means Chavez can soon arrest him...

Just wait for it.

Hugo’ minion also call him an anti-semite, zionist, gay, French lackey and other things.

Venezuela has no real opposition media since they were all shut down by el dictator.

Low life pig. Isn’t that what Sean Penn called Maria Conchita Alonso for calling Sean a commie? BTW, I thought Hugo was dying from cancer.

I am suprised he hasn’t already.

The opposition expects the government to crack down on them any day. Even if they actually let the elections happen, and the opposition win, everyone will wonder if Hugo’s military will let Capriles take the office.

"you have a pig's tail, a pig's ears, and you snort like a pig,"

I hope that Mitt is taking notes on this, for future use.

There is nothing wrong here folks. HOWEVER, if he had used the word, "macaca" The Washington Post and the rest of the MSM would have gone ballistic.

Oi, Hugo.

Quem e’ o porco gordo?

Tu es o porco gordo e um comunista tambem.

Lembras te o que o re de Espanha fala pra voce?

“Porque no te callas?”

Sorry, my Portuguese is pretty good, but my Spanish is weak, so I used Portuguese.

Except for the part where Spanish King Juan Carlos told Baby Huey to shut up.

Clip of Juan Carlos I telling Baby Huey to shut up ...

It must have been Chavez who said:

“You can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig”

And, Hugo, you have a pig's face.
