The AP reports from the UN that Hugo Chavez, buffoonish president of Venezuela, referred to American President George W. Bush as "the devil" in a speech to the General Assembly. The AP further reports that Chavez's remarks provoked giggles at some points and some applause from a few delegates at others. There's no indication as to whether Chavez's speech was better attended than the one yesterday by Iran's President Ahmadinejad, reportedly heard by only a few delegates willing to postpone their evening meal to learn that Iran's nukes are "peaceful" (like its rhetoric).
Meanwhile, SWNID has it from our usual sources that at the White House, President Bush has proclaimed that, following the example of Islamists, he will demand an apology from Chavez, express his disappointment at any statement of apology issued, adorn Marine One with signs reading "Chavez Go to Hell" and burn Chavez in effigy in the White House Rose Garden.

To be fair, Chavez wasn't just rattling off. This time he offered empirical proof that Bush is the devil. He said he could smell sulfur where Bush had stood. I've always admired men of science.
It's time to move the UN building /headquarter to Caracas, and turn the existing buidling into some nice condos.
Chavez got a standing ovation in Harlem today for his Bush-hating speech. What is even more news worthy is that he is the first Hispanic to have wandered into Harlem without being shot at in 25 years. Tante pis!
