I don't always agree with him on things, but I can sure get behind him on this:

[Boston Metro] The word "devil" was uttered no fewer than eight times during Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's address to the U.N. General Assembly yesterday. In each case, he meant it to describe one man -- President Bush.

"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 sulfer still today, this table that I am now standing in front of." He then made the sign of the cross, brought his hands together as if praying and looked up at the ceiling.


Now this is a time when I can enthusiastically cheerlead his patented drama queenery. Well emoted, and the whole smell-of-sulfer image is an instant classic. He said more:

[CNN.com] Chavez: "As the spokesman of imperialism, he came to share his nostrums to try to preserve the current pattern of domination, exploitation and pillage of the peoples of the world. An Alfred Hitchcock movie could use it as a scenario. I would even propose a title: 'The Devil's Recipe.'"

Thank you, Mr. Chavez! You deserve all the podium time you want on this topic.

They had an AP picture of Chavez on the front page of the Metro today, holding a Noam Chomsky book.

I can only hope the picture was specially calculated so as to send as many neocons as possible into fits of dehabilitating apoplexy.
