Unshocking Revelation: Huey’s A Hypocrite
25 July 2007, 2:30 PM. By Carlos Posas
As law of the land, Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez has announced a new way to deal with any foreigner who visits and publicly criticizes his government–immediate deportation. Huey explains:
No foreigner, whoever it is, can come here to attack us. How long are we going to allow a person, from any country in the world, to come to our own house to say there’s a dictatorship here, that the president is a tyrant, and no one does anything about it?
The article goes on to mislabel the irony here, saying Chávez would have been deported last year for calling President Bush a devil in New York if the policy were an American one. We recall the incident as well, but figure that’s not where the hipocrisy lies. How about the fact that a leader claiming not to be a tyrant threatens to banish people who speak their mind? We swear this self-contradiction doesn’t come from the company Huey keeps. Honest. (We also wonder what exactly was the occasion for the above pic. A pair of old chums just farting around?)

does it surprise you? the man is a tyrant
remember cindy sheehan? at a conference in venezuela she said she’d “rather have hugo chavez for president than george bush”
um…wtf? count your blessings. let’s hope she never runs for president.
Ay, dios! Shave the beard, Fidel, & you’ll look like my Italian grandfather. I suppose it’s true what they know in Europe then: Latinos aren’t just Spanish-origin. (Portuguese, French, Italian… Romanian (!), stop right up.)
Also, about Chavy’s “huele de sulfur” appearance, technically, the U.N. building is sovereign territory. Sure, the U.S. “lets” the U.N. locate on prime Manhattan real-estate & could, theoretically, kick out the U.N., but outside of Bob Smith’s (R-N.H.) wet-dreams, that is not going to happen. I do see your point, though, about Chavy’s attempting to subvert a foreign head-of-state in that HOS’s home area, & how Chavy would not allow that if, say, the U.N. were in Caracas.
First they came for the arepas, and I did not speak out, because I wasn’t an arepa…
