Video: Possibly Drunk Chavez Has Meltdown Over Election Loss
Reuters:
The president lost despite activating an oil-financed, state-backed get-out-the-vote machine.
Chavez is popular for a folksy style and often uses spicy language, particularly against the opposition and Washington.
He labels his rivals “lackeys of the empire” and U.S. President George W. Bush the “devil” and a “donkey.” He once called Bush an “asshole.”
From Caracas Chronicles:
Quico says: It’s now an established talking point in the government’s response to Sunday’s referendum defeat: by “graciously” accepting he’d lost, Chávez put the lie to the opposition claim that he’s some kind of crazy dictator. Like the democrat that he is, he “accepted the will of the people” and moved on…
Or did he?
This afternoon, Chávez turned up unannounced at the Military High Command’s press conference and totally freaked out. Less than 72 hours after his “graceful” election night concession speech, the all too predictable Narcissistic Rage response began. He called the opposition’s referendum win “a triumph made of shit,” using the word “mierda” four times in two sentences on national TV. I mean, you know things have come to a head when Reuter’s has to put the journalistic equivalent of a parental advisory at the start of its write up.
And I know everybody says Chávez doesn’t drink but…well, you be the judge:
