Michael Moore feels the heat from ex-lover Hugo Chavez:

Moore described a strange encounter with Chavez during last September’s Venice Film Festival. Chavez was there for the screening of Oliver Stone’s documentary “South of the Border,” which is about Chavez and other leftist leaders in Latin America.

Moore said that during a 2 a.m. encounter in Chavez’s hotel suite, he gave the strongman political advice and even helped him write a U.N. speech. The two also downed a bottle-and-a-half of tequila, Moore said.

…The anti-Moore charge is being led by Venezuela-American lawyer Eva Golinger — a Chavez political operative whom one of Venezuela’s anti-Chavez newspaper editors has branded as Venezuela’s answer to Sen. Joe McCarthy because she equates criticism of Venezuela’s government as being “anti-Venezuelan.”

Golinger, in an article filled with grammatical errors, skewered Moore’s “fairy tale” in a shrill analysis. Calling Moore a man with an “extreme ego,” she suggested at various points that the filmmaker was a racist. For instance, she pointed out that Moore mistook Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro as Chavez’s bodyguard, “but hey, all latinos (sic) look alike!”

I can’t help but enjoy when leftist demagogues turn cannibal.
