Default \"donkey\", \"drunkard\": how other world leaders see Bush

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has given voice to how other world leaders see our very own El Presidente Bush, or as President Chavez refers to Bush: "Mr. Danger." LOL!

Some quotes:

[ QUOTE ]
"You are a donkey, Mr. Bush," said Chavez, speaking in English on his weekly Sunday broadcast.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
"You're an alcoholic Mr. Danger, or rather, you're a drunkard," Chavez said, referring to Bush by a nickname he frequently uses to describe the U.S. president.

[/ QUOTE ]

linky

It's ironic that President Chavez actively works against America and yet, net-net, his presence has probably had a minimal negative effect on the United States. Meanwhile, "Mr. Danger" has tried to make the world safer and all he has accomplished is to create a terrorist breeding ground in Iraq. Chavez, in his wildest dreams, could never do as much damage to the U.S. as "Mr. Danger" has. Respective of that, perhaps Chavez should change his nickname for Bush from "Mr. Danger" to "Mr. Burns," the character on the Simpsons who is only capable of doing evil -- even when he tries to do good.

Just another example of poker lexicon making its way into popular discourse.

If this plays out like a typical NL tournament (and if Bush truly is a donkey), he'll definitely min-raise after Chavez led out there.

Can't wait 'til I hear a noted pundit or some member of Congress lamenting the fact that, with our ever increasing national debt, we're in danger of going BUSTO!!!!1!!!11!

True. Hugo was democratically elected.

And yet Bush still managed to become leader of the Free World. If he is so bad, what does that make the wannabes who are oh so much superior?

There is one major area of unrest in the world today that threatens us. That's the middle east. If 10 or 20 years down the road that region has become democratic and stable, was Bush's proactiveness worthwhile? Surely.

Spending and trade deficit - Bad
Quoting Hugo Chavez - Very Bad
Defending ourselves & others who can't defend themselves - Good

Someone needs to explain what this means before it is used again. Our client states are and have been brutal, oppressive regimes for the past 100+ years.
