Hugo Chávez Voted Venezuela’s Fifth-Most Desired Man In Recent Poll. Having “Pole” And “Chávez” In Same Sentence Gets Us Excited.

Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chávez has been voted the number five sexiest man in his country in a recent poll. You’re still number one in our book, papi:

A poll said on Thursday the fifth-most desired man is Chávez, whose large nose, protruding lips, forehead mole and gap in his front teeth are easy fodder for caricature artists in a South American nation obsessed with beauty.

The poll was commissioned by Fedecamaras, Venezuela’s principal business group that was for years openly hostile to Chávez and even helped install one of its leaders as de facto president during a brief 2002 coup against him.

It’s hard to remain opposed to someone so devastatingly handsome, though, isn’t it? We poke fun at Huey all the time but, besides all that “entire nation in turmoil” stuff, we don’t hold anything against him. Except our willing bodies.
