Cheney makes geographical gaffe, mixes up Peru with Venezuela
Mr Cheney slipped up addressing an international affairs luncheon


While criticising Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, Mr Cheney said "the people of Peru deserve better".

Speaking in Dallas, Texas, he said he did not believe Mr Chavez represented the future of Latin America.

Mr Chavez and his socialist ideology have long concerned US President George W Bush's administration.

Mr Cheney said of the Venezuelan leader: "He spends a great deal of his time worrying about us and criticising the United States."

5. No big deal. Use a big enough nuke
and you don't have to worry about hitting the "right" country. Long as you're in the neighborhood. Anyway, those people down there are all socialists, or commies, even.
