Chavez blasts Bush as "donkey" and "drunkard"

[hwmnbn]

In public statements, Hugo Chavez is starting to reflect my views more precisely. He is saying what we've known for a long time about the chimp. The chimp is worse than a proven liar and chickenhawk. These things need to be said, because the truth shall set you free!

CARACAS, Venezuela (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Sunday lobbed a litany of insults at U.S. President George W. Bush ranging from "donkey" to "drunkard" in response to a White House report branding the left-wing leader a demagogue.

Chavez is one of Bush's fiercest critics and has repeatedly accused the U.S. government of seeking to oust him from the presidency of Venezuela, the world's No. 5 oil exporter and a supplier of around 15 percent of U.S. crude imports.

"You are a donkey, Mr. Bush," said Chavez, speaking in English on his weekly Sunday broadcast.

"You're an alcoholic Mr. Danger, or rather, you're a drunkard," Chavez said, referring to Bush by a nickname he frequently uses to describe the U.S. president.

The American media refused to translate the word Chavez actually used as "jackass."
