Who the Devil is Hugo Chavez?
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez called President Bush "the devil" in a speech to the United Nations on Wednesday of this week, making the sign of the cross in a dramatic gesture and accusing him of "talking as if he owned the world."
"Yesterday, the devil came here," Chavez said, referring to Bush's address before the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday. "Right here. Right here. And it smells of sulfur still today, this table that I am now standing in front of."
Chavez's words drew tentative giggles at times from the audience, but also applause at the end of the speech and when he called Bush the devil -- a word he used no fewer than eight times.
Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Chavez's remarks were "not becoming for a head of state." "I am not going to dignify a comment by the Venezuelan president to the president of the United States," Rice told reporters in New York.
