If I were Venezuelan right now....
...I'd be beet red in embarassment and looking for a rock to hide under.
To wit, here's a photo of a tuna can sent to Peru by the Venezuelan Government as disaster assistance:
Yes, that's a picture of Hugo Chavez. And making matters worse, imagine being a Peruvian that has just survived a massive earthquale, youve lost firends, family, your home...youre hungry and cold and you get one of these cans of tuna and on it you read:
“The Peruvian government acts in an inefficient, slow and heartless manner, notwithstanding the pain of the victims, leaving them to the mercy of hunger, thirst and delinquency,”
Aint nothing like a forced dose of propaganda when youre at your absolute lowest to cheer you right back up.
Much more on this at Gateway Pundit and A Second Hand Conjecture.
No word as to whether or not Sean Penn's image appeared on donated cans of cockles...

Cono, that is a low blow by Chavez! I guess it is to be expected from Castro's evergrowing mini-me...
We should send a cruise missle over to Chavez with an incription saying: The Venezuelan opposition acts in an inefficient, slow manner, and notwithstanding the pain of the victims, caused by your government's incoherent communist policies leaving them to the mercy of hunger, thirst and delinquency, we are sending you this to aid in your passing!

Years ago, when a hurricane hit Cuba hard, some exiles in Miami started a food drive to send to the island via the Catholic Caritas organization. The food cans contained scrawled messages saying "From your brothers in Miami," "One nation united," etc. The Cuban dictatorship accepted the items but instead of passing them out to the people, they served the food in government dinning halls. The Cuban people were once again duped by their slave masters and the true intentions of the charitable exiles went unnoticed. The Peruvian government should take a lesson from that regarding Chavez's propaganda food methods.

hugo chavez denies having sent the tuna cans with his picture on the label. He's blaming the CIA. He claims the CIA sent the cans in order to "embarass" him.

Like my mother would say, this grotesquely vulgar thug, who'd be a laughingstock if it weren't for his oil money, is a classic example of "gente de medio pelo" or better yet, "gente de piso de tierra." The only people who voted for him who could possibly be unrepentant are those who are, essentially, just like him.
