BUENOS AIRES, Argentina -- When asked about his over-the-top Bush name calling, Hugo Chavez late last month told Time magazine: "Bush has called me worse things: tyrant, populist dictator, drug trafficker, to name a few." Sticks and stones break bones. And in Washington names and labels can too. Washington watchers say advocates for toothy Chavez containment are searching for new things to call the fiery leader who, if the heavy, hard-to-refine crude in Venezuela 's Orinoco region is counted, controls the world's largest oil estate.
