Bush and Cheney and News and Politics and Republicans 3:52 pm
This morning in a speech in Dallas, a reporter asked Vice President Cheney about his views on Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Cheney responded that the people of Peru “deserve better” leadership:
MODERATOR: Our attention is focused on Iraq, Iran and the wider Middle East. However, much of the world is watching closely Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. How concerned are you about his influence?

For the record, Peru’s current president is Alan García. (At least Cheney didn’t call Africa a “nation.”)
