Last today, our favorite South American dictator, Hugo Chavez, is stretching even our limits of imagination. Señor Chavez has apparently set up a special office of 200 employees to manage his new, much hyped Twitter account. It’s hard to believe this guy can limit himself to 140-character messages… good thing there’s more than one person per letter on his staff to take care of it.

It get’s better. His account name is Chavezcandanga. Depending on your Spanish dialect, that can mean: “Relentless Chavez,” “Naughty Chavez” or “Chavez the Devil.” Seriously.

The AFP reports the whole operation is financed with state funds.
