Quote of the day:
“Mr King, we are not going to shut up,” he said.
That is Chavez addressing King Carlos of Spain.
And this is what Chavez’s supporters have to say on the remark the king made to Chavez yesterday, asking Chavez to “shut up”:
“He’s insolent. He has to respect a sovereign leader. The king is just a monarch and Spain has been sacking the people of Latin America for the past 500 years.
“President Chavez has more right to say what he pleases than the king because he was elected by the Venezuelan people.
