Huey Goes Off The Deep End…Again

We’ve documented how he’s made friends with Danny Glover and smelled sulfur where there wasn’t any, then four-wheeled throughout his country while singing the praises of Clint Eastwood movies. Now, witness the height of craziness reached by the world’s most entertaining Latino politician on Guanabee’s watch: President of Venezuela and looney bin escapee Hugo Chávez has demanded his troops prepare for a U.S. invasion that could break out onto Venezuelan soil. (Any minute now.) The funny part? He did so while ranting at a fort and parading around in army garb like a pre-pubescent boy who’d gotten into his grandpa’s closet. According to Chávez, Uncle Sam is nothing but a mean ol’ bully to the Venezuelan people in a bunch of ways:

It’s not just armed warfare. [...] I’m also referring to psychological warfare, media warfare, political warfare, economic warfare.

He’s right about that media warfare part. After all, The View does air in Spanish.
