| Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez will govern from a tent given him by Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.He has invited families made homeless by recent torrential rains to live in his palace. Socialist Chavez, an admirer of the African leader who has governed for more than 40 years, moved 25 families into the palace in November and on Friday told aides to speed up preparation to receive another 80 families. "We can put some beds in my main office," he said. Chavez has zig-zagged across the country to supervise humanitarian relief. He is criticized for not building enough new housing during his 12 years in office but blames huge, unstable slums on his free-market predecessors. Now all he needs is Fembots and some big Sprockets. Maybe a funny hat or two and some clothes donated by Libeerace"s estate. |
