Hugo Chavez And Prince Of Asturias Meet In “Total Normalcy.” At A Furry Convention. Kidding.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and Prince Felipe of Asturias -yiffed- met in “total normalcy” at an event preceding the inauguration of Argentina’s new president, Cristina Kirchner:

Their meeting — which was the first following an impasse between Chávez and King Juan Carlos I during the 17th Ibero-American Summit in Chile — took place late Sunday, before a dinner party the Argentinean government offered to the heads of State and Government visiting the country to attend the inauguration on Monday of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner as the President of Argentina.

The source disclosed that was [sic] Chávez — with total normalcy — addressed Prince Felipe while they were waiting for the official salutation before the dinner party, Efe reported.

It’s sad that this warranted an entire article. Did they expect Chavez to put on a dress and wig and hurl balloons full of pudding at the Prince? Is the fact that Chavez could make it through an evening without biting someone or speaking in tongues really newsworthy? Haha. Pudding.
